Three Israeli-American brothers - Tal, Oren and Alon Alexander - were sentenced on October 27 to 30 years each in federal prison after a jury found them guilty of a years-long sex-trafficking conspiracy. Prosecutors said the former owner of luxury properties in Miami and New York used his wealth, private jets, yachts and parties in the Hamptons/Aspen to drug and rape dozens of women (at least 70 alleged victims; one charge involved a minor). Judge Valerie Caproni called their actions "monstrous." They are actively seeking a presidential pardon from Donald Trump. The family hired Alan Dershowitz, the same lawyer who once represented Jeffrey Epstein and advised Trump on clemency during his first term. Financial documents reviewed by The New York Times show the family paid him a $250,000 advance in March 2025 (months before the trial), as well as other transfers; The invoice mentions work on reviewing "executive pardons and judicial reversals". Dershowitz confirms that he is advising the family on legal issues and punishments (he knows the parents), but says he has not yet discussed the pardon with Trump and disputes some of the reported fee amounts. The brothers maintain their innocence, plan to appeal and are exploring the White House's options. No amnesty has yet been granted. Two of the brothers previously brokered the purchase of a $24 million Florida mansion for Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. The case is still pending; Federal convictions remain pending appeal or pardon.
