Oren, Alon and Tal Alexander, three brothers who grew to become often called kings within the luxurious actual property world in Miami and New York Metropolis, have been accused of raping or sexually assaulting not less than 60 victims, together with a minor. They’ve pleaded not responsible to intercourse trafficking costs. Now, their legal professionals completely inform In Contact that the claims made by the brothers’ accusers, their private harm legal professionals and prosecutors could also be fabricated.
“It’s no coincidence that for 10, 15 years, not one particular person had ever accused these brothers of ever doing something inappropriate, and hastily, at one time, in the identical actual window body, each single particular person that you simply’ve heard of that has accused the Alexander brothers of assaulting them got here by means of a private harm lawsuit making an attempt to sue them for cash,” legal professional Edward O’Donnell tells In Contact Investigates‘ Kristin Thorne in his first joint on-camera interview with legal professional Joel Denaro.
O’Donnell continues, “How is it doable for all of those girls to come back out at the very same time? Each single one in every of ’em is suing for cash. None of them went to regulation enforcement. They solely went to non-public harm legal professionals, and that’s how regulation enforcement obtained concerned.”

Denaro asks to think about the “mathematical prospects” of all the Alexander brothers’ accusers coming ahead on the identical time, with none taking their circumstances on to regulation enforcement.
Among the alleged victims have said that they have been afraid to come back ahead on account of disgrace or concern that folks wouldn’t consider them. One lady, Lindsey Acree, instructed the Miami Herald that she had initially needed to file a lawsuit anonymously to be able to keep away from being “identified for” her assault.
Carissa Peebles, an legal professional representing one of many girls, instructed NBC6 that her consumer had “a whole lot of concern” about coming ahead as a result of she “understood [the brothers’] standing and wealth in society.”
In a press release to NBC6, the girl, who remained nameless, stated, “If my choice to talk out encourages even one particular person to share their very own reality, whether or not it’s about these brothers or anybody else, then this effort could have been value it. Nobody ought to have to hold this burden alone, and I hope this serves as a reminder that justice begins with a single step ahead.”
In keeping with O’Donnell, there may be “zero [physical] proof from any of the accusers that I’m conscious of,” as they allegedly didn’t go to the hospital for rape kits.
“There’s zero proof in any respect that the assaults occurred,” he provides.
Prosecutors have claimed that Oren, 39, Alon, 38, and Alon’s twin brother Tal “labored collectively and with others identified and unknown to repeatedly and violently drug, sexually assault and rape dozens of victims.”
O’Donnell factors to 1 lady’s December 2024 e mail to one of many prosecutors, through which she requested for suggestions for legal professionals within the Miami space who have been engaged on the Alexander brothers’ case.

“I wish to sue,” she wrote.
O’Donnell explains, “The prosecutor is aware of who the private harm legal professionals are which can be suing the Alexander brothers.”
O’Donnell shared the emails with In Contact.
They present that the prosecutor responded to the alleged sufferer with the names and emails of legal professionals who have been pursuing civil circumstances in opposition to the brothers.
An legal professional for the alleged sufferer who wrote the e-mail stated in a press release to In Contact, “It’s each predictable and pathetic that counsel for the Alexanders is name-calling the victims as opportunistic for looking for civil treatments after being [allegedly] trafficked and raped. Absent a time machine the place the victims may change their destiny and erase the horrors they suffered, the choice stays holding the Alexanders financially accountable for the lives they’ve ruined.”
In the meantime, a rep for the District Legal professional’s workplace instructed In Contact, “The e-mail indication of the media-named attorneys dealing with the civil lawsuits is a response to a direct query, not a referral.”
Denaro says that though it’s “arduous” for the Alexander brothers to be “away from their households” throughout this time — they’re at present being held with out bail at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Heart till their trial in January 2026 — they’re being “robust.”
“What selection have they got aside from to face and combat these accusations, that are eight, typically 12 years outdated with no bodily proof?” he provides.
O’Donnell concludes, “Oren’s a really robust particular person. He’s a really brave particular person. He is aware of that he didn’t do something unsuitable. As Mr. Denaro stated, they haven’t any selection however to take a seat and combat, and they’ll.”
