Tal, 39, and his younger twin brothers, Oren and Alon, 38, face a minimum sentence of 15 years with the possibility of life in prison. Their sentencing hearing is set for Thursday, August 6, with judge Valerie Caprioni.
The brothers, two of which were luxury real estate agents, were convicted on 10 total counts related to sex trafficking, including conspiracy to commit sex trafficking, per The Real Deal. (Oren and Tal worked as brokers for Douglas Elliman before branching out and starting their own firm, Official. Alon, meanwhile, worked at their family’s private security firm.)
According to prosecutors, Tal, Oren and Alon allegedly lured women to luxury destinations, like Aspen or the Hamptons from 2008 to 2021 where they — and other men — allegedly drugged the women and raped them.
The Alexander brothers pleaded not guilty to the charges. They have maintained their innocence while denying all allegations.
All three of the Alexanders were found guilty of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and inducement to travel to engage in unlawful sexual activity pegged to Oren’s alleged rape of one alleged victim, which she claimed took place in the Hamptons in 2016. (Most of the alleged victims did not use their real names when testifying.)
Tal and Alon were also found guilty of sex trafficking a then-16-year-old following an alleged attack on her in 2009 in the Hamptons.
After a separate woman testified that she was allegedly drugged and rapped by twins Oren and Alon in 2012 on a cruise from Miami to the Bahamas, the men were found guilty of aggravated sexual abuse and sexual abuse.
Tal was found guilty on one count of sex trafficking stemming from the alleged rape of Lindsey Acree, who is one of two women to file a lawsuit against the men, in the Hamptons in 2011.
Additionally, Tal was found guilty of one count of sex trafficking and inducing another woman to travel to the Hamptons in unlawful sexual activity after allegedly attacking her in 2014.
A different woman accused Oren of drugging and raping her when she was 17 years old, claiming he filmed the attack. The jury found Oren guilty of sexual exploitation of a minor in that case.
