Alexander brothers each sentenced to 30 years in prison for sex trafficking case

Three Alexander brothers – two affluent real estate developers and their brother – received 30 years each in prison for drugging and raping numerous women over several decades. Found guilty in March, they allegedly lured victims to lavish events and homes to sexually assault them. Judge Valerie Caproni described their actions as "monstrous" before sentencing.

During the five-week trial, 12 victims, including children at the time of the assaults, testified about the psychological trauma they suffered. The court heard pleas for the maximum life sentence from multiple victims. The Alexander brothers, known for their luxury property sales in New York and Miami, maintained their innocence throughout the proceedings.
