Oren and Tal Alexander were the founders of real estate firm Official, which had offices in Miami and New York. The brothers used “deception, fraud and coercion” – including the promise of luxury travel accommodation – to engage in sex trafficking as well as drugging, sexually assaulting and raping dozens of women. They used “their wealth and prominent positions in real estate to create and facilitate opportunities” to do so, prosecutors said when they were charged.
