Luxury real estate moguls hit with new allegations in sex trafficking case

Fox News08-05-2025

Federal prosecutors have filed a superseding indictment against the Alexander brothers, three luxury Miami businessmen previously arrested in December for running a highly sophisticated sex trafficking ring.
The new indictment adds charges and victims, alleging Alon, Oren, and Tal Alexander conspired to exploit vulnerable women and minors for commercial sex through force, fraud, and coercion.
The charges include conspiracy to commit sex trafficking, multiple counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and inducement to travel for unlawful sexual activity.
All three brothers are accused of participating in trafficking at least five adult victims, while two of the brothers, Tal and Alon Alexander, face additional charges of trafficking a minor.
Tal Alexander is individually named in five out of the nine counts. His charges include trafficking a minor, the use of incapacitating drugs, coercion across state lines, and the storage of non-consensual explicit images.
If convicted, the Alexander brothers face decades in federal prison. The superseding indictment also allows federal prosecutors to gather more evidence and advance charges further.

The brothers are being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, alongside disgraced rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs and the alleged killer of the UnitedHealthcare CEO, Luigi Mangione.
The sordid accusations allege that the siblings used their wealth and positions to lure women to nightclubs and parties and other events before drugging them and sexually assaulting them.
Their trial date is set for Jan. 5, 2026, and their next hearing is July 15, 2025.
Oren and Tal Alexander co-founded the real estate firm Official, which offers luxury listings in places like New York City, the Hamptons, Miami and Los Angeles, in 2022 after rising through the ranks at Douglas Elliman, one of the largest real estate brokerages in the country, according to prosecutors.
Their past clients include Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Liam Gallagher and Lindsay Lohan, according to CBS News.

Body of unidentified woman killed in 1986 Fayette County crash exhumed

Officials on Monday exhumed the body of an unidentified woman killed in a crash in Fayette County in 1986. Jane Doe's remains were exhumed from an unnamed grave at Oak Lawn Cemetery to use improved DNA technology in the hopes of identifying her. Pennsylvania State Police troopers found her body after a crash along Route 119 in Springhill Township on May 2, 1986. "A lot of times when I drive by here, I think about that morning," said Larry Leech. Leech was the chief for the Smithfield Volunteer Fire Department, which responded to the scene that day. "We had a tractor-trailer, an 18-wheeler upside down, and the driver was deceased at the scene," Leech said. At first, Leech says it seems cut and dry. It was not until the trailer was moved that emergency responders found the body of a woman. She was not carrying a purse or wallet, only a few items that included a pack of cigarettes and $300 in cash. Jane Doe's name and why she was in Fayette County have been a mystery ever since. "There's been grant funding available to look at old cold cases, unidentified individuals, and try to bring closure to families and identify these folks," Fayette County District Attorney Mike Auble said. After 10 years of behind-the-scenes work by state police and the coroner's office, her body was exhumed on Monday. "The folks who have been involved in this case have done a tremendous amount of work, and yesterday was a big day for a lot of people," Auble said. Her body was transported to the Indiana County Coroner's Office, where her DNA will be collected and uploaded into various databases to see if an identification can be made. "We're very hopeful that we're going to be able to close this one," Auble said. As for Leech, who has carried this mystery with him for decades, he is relieved to know Jane Doe's grieving family may soon be reunited with her. "I won't know who she was, but I hope that maybe they can find out and trace back and get to her family, and someone can have closure here," Leech said.

Navy's search for missing 21-year-old seaman ends with tragic discovery, sailor detained in Virginia

Navy officials on Thursday discovered a body in a wooded area of Norfolk, Virginia, and the local medical examiner has confirmed it to be missing Navy Seaman Angelina Resendiz. Resendiz, 21, was last seen on May 29 at her barracks in Miller Hall on Naval Station Norfolk around 10 p.m., according to Virginia State Police and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS). "A Navy Sailor has been placed in pretrial confinement in connection with the death of Seaman Resendiz. Charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice are pending," NCIS said in a Thursday statement. NCIS said it has "worked tirelessly in close coordination with Navy leadership, the Norfolk Police Department, Virginia State Police, Virginia Search and Rescue, and numerous other federal and local law enforcement partners to pursue all leads since learning of Seaman Resendiz' disappearance." "NCIS remains committed to uncovering the facts surrounding the tragic death of Seaman Resendiz to ensure accountability and justice," the agency said. Police previously described Resendiz's disappearance as critical, saying her health was at risk. Resendiz's mother, Esmeralda Castle, who lives in Resendiz's hometown in Texas, described her daughter as "loving" and "kind" in an interview with WVEC. She worked as a culinary specialist for the Navy, Castle said. Castle added that Resendiz had not responded to calls or texts from her family, which was out of character. "Her and my sister have a 400-day streak on Snapchat. Every single day she talks to somebody. She talks to family, or she will talk to a friend," Castle told WVEC. The 21-year-old did not drive or have a vehicle, and she was reported missing after she failed to show up for work, according to WVEC. "She just stopped existing Thursday. She's spent no money, made no disappeared," Castle told the outlet. "It's very hard to tell people that she's missing." NCIS said that it will not be releasing further information at this time while the investigation remains ongoing "out of respect for the investigative process."
