Explosive Claims Mount Against Alexander Brothers as Lawyers Deny All Allegations

Oren, Alon, and Tal Alexander, brothers renowned as 'kings' in the luxury real estate markets of Miami and New York City, are currently facing grave accusations of rape and sexual assault. Over 60 victims, including a minor, have come forward with allegations dating back to 2009. The brothers have pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking charges, vehemently denying any wrongdoing.

Federal prosecutors assert that the Alexander brothers, Oren (39), Alon (38), and Tal (38), collaborated to drug, sexually assault, and rape dozens of victims between 2009 and 2021, allegedly promising luxury experiences in exchange for sex. Miami Herald reporter Ana Claudia Chacin, who has interviewed several accusers, noted the "eerily similar" nature of the stories, often involving women being drugged or incapacitated by alcohol to a state where they could not consent.

Conversely, the brothers' legal team, attorneys Edward O’Donnell and Joel Denaro, contend that the accusations are fabricated and orchestrated, primarily through personal injury lawsuits. O’Donnell highlighted the suspicious timing, stating, "It is no coincidence that for 10, 15 years, not one person had ever accused these brothers of ever doing anything inappropriate, and all of a sudden, at one time, in the same exact window frame, every single person that you’ve heard of that has accused the Alexander brothers of assaulting them came through a personal injury lawsuit trying to sue them for money." He emphasized the alleged lack of physical evidence, noting that no accusers, to his knowledge, sought rape kits at hospitals, and none initially went directly to law enforcement, instead approaching personal injury lawyers.

Victims and their representatives have offered various reasons for the delayed reporting. Many expressed fear and shame, believing they would not be credited due to the brothers' societal status and wealth. Lindsey Acree, one alleged victim, initially sought to file anonymously to avoid being publicly associated with the assault. Carissa Peebles, an attorney for another woman, confirmed her client's significant fear. According to Chacin, a "domino effect" occurred, where women felt more empowered to speak out as others shared their stories, some having suppressed their memories for decades. One woman shared she attempted to report her assault to the police but was dismissed, being told she had willingly consumed marijuana and thus lacked a case, and was denied a rape kit at the hospital.

Maria Suska, one of Oren's accusers, detailed her alleged assault in 2014 at a Miami party. She accepted Oren's invitation to dinner, only to find ten other girls and two promoters present. She later went upstairs with him to a watch tower where she alleges he attacked her. Suska did not file a police report until December 2023, attributing the delay to fear and self-blame, initially thinking she was alone in her experience until news of other women coming forward emerged. Her case, however, is not part of the current legal proceedings due to Florida's statute of limitations.

A point of contention arose concerning a prosecutor's email. O’Donnell revealed an email from December 2024 where an alleged victim inquired about lawyers for the Alexander brothers' case, explicitly stating, "I would like to sue." The prosecutor responded with names and emails of attorneys pursuing civil cases. O’Donnell viewed this as evidence of coordinated civil actions driving the charges. However, a representative for the District Attorney’s office clarified that the email was "a response to a direct question, not a referral."

Attorneys representing the alleged victims have strongly refuted the defense's characterization. Todd Poses, Suska's attorney, stated, "It is both predictable and pathetic that counsel for the Alexanders is name-calling the victims as opportunistic for seeking civil remedies after being [allegedly] trafficked and raped. Absent a time machine where the victims could change their fate and erase the horrors they suffered, the alternative remains holding the Alexanders financially accountable for the lives they have ruined."

Further complicating the legal landscape, Oren and Alon Alexander's legal team filed a motion in July to dismiss a lawsuit in New York, presenting "flirty messages and nude pictures" sent by the accuser to the brothers *after* her alleged attack. The Alexander brothers are currently being held without bail at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. Their trial is scheduled for January 2026, a period their attorneys acknowledge is "hard" for them, but they remain "strong" and determined to "stand and fight these accusations."
