New federal civil suit in Colorado claims the Alexander brothers raped two more women
Real estate moguls Oren and Alon Alexander — twin brothers in federal custody on multiple rape and sex trafficking charges — are facing yet another accusation of sexual assault.
Earlier this week, a Pennsylvania woman filed a civil lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado claiming she met the brothers during the 2017 X Games in Aspen. The woman said she believes she was drugged and that, along with two friends, they were taken by the Alexanders to a hotel room.
Once there, the lawsuit says, the woman was raped by Alon Alexander in the bathroom. She says she was “violently” penetrated by Alon Alexander. And that before he was done, he turned her around and raped her from behind over the counter, causing her to hemorrhage. Oren Alexander, according to the lawsuit, sexually assaulted another woman on a bed.
Representatives of the law firm Leventhal Puga Braley, who filed the civil suit Monday on behalf of the woman, had not responded to interview requests by late Thursday afternoon. The woman making the rape accusation, who is now 25, is asking for compensatory damages and a jury trial.
Late Thursday, attorneys representing the Alexander brothers said the most recent civil lawsuit was just an attempt to financially squeeze the brothers.
“Absolutely no rape occurred,” attorneys Deanna Paul and Milton Williams said in a prepared statement. “Moreover, Colorado law does not criminalize consensual sex when both parties are 17 or older. This false allegation is an 11th hour attempt to profit off the Alexanders’ success.”
More than 40 women come forward
Oren and his older brother Tal are high-profile luxury real estate brokers and jet-setters with a long list of celebrity clients and multi-million dollar deals in both Florida and New York in addition to Aspen. They shot to fame after record-setting residential sales on Miami Beach and in Manhattan. Alon works mainly for the family’s Miami-based security firm.
In early December, the 37-year-old twins were formally charged with numerous sex crimes by the state of Florida and federally. Oren, Alon and Tal Alexander all from Miami Beach, are also facing at least four other civil lawsuits filled with disturbing allegations of drugging and raping women. Those lawsuits were filed last summer in New York State court.
The twins were originally taken into custody in mid-December after being accused of three separate rapes on Miami Beach between 2016 and 2021. All three brothers were additionally charged the same day in New York federal court with conspiracy to commit sex trafficking and related counts of sex trafficking two victims by force, fraud or coercion between 2010 and 2021 in Manhattan, Miami and elsewhere.
Also facing a single count of sexual battery is family friend Ohad Fisherman, who had to return early from a honeymoon in Japan for his initial court appearance two weeks ago.
After the arrests, a federal agent testified in court that his agency was aware of as many as 40 additional credible claims of various sex crimes against the brothers. And since the Miami Beach charges in early December, several other women have approached law enforcement with claims of sex crimes against the brothers. No additional charges have yet been filed.
FROM ‘BOOTSY BELLOWS’ TO A HOTEL
While in Aspen for the bi-annual sporting event, Alon Alexander did an “immediate double-take” after seeing her at a club called “Bootsy Bellows,” according to the federal civil case filed earlier this week by a woman named Maylen Gehret.
He grabbed her hand, the lawsuit says, and urged her and friends to join them at a table. Gehret added she told the brothers she was 17 — yet they still plied her with drinks “which she later realized may have also contained drugs.”
Gehret said she and two friends took a rideshare with the brothers under the pretense they were going to a party. But mirroring claims in other lawsuits, it turned out to be an empty hotel room. That’s where the alleged rapes took place. The three women eventually left.
Oren, Alon and Tal Alexander are all currently in federal custody in Miami and are expected to be transferred to New York. Their attempts at bond have been denied, with prosecutors arguing no matter how many hundreds of millions of dollars the wealthy family guarantees to put up, the trio with Israeli passports remain a flight risk.
