NEW YORK - Three brothers, Oren, Alon and Tal Alexander, were each sentenced to 30 years in prison in New York on Tuesday for sex trafficking, The Guardian reported. The outlet said the three Florida brothers were convicted in a case in which they exploited the wealth and influence of their family's luxury real estate business to drug and rape “dozens of women.” According to the same report, Oren and Alon Alexander are 39 and are twins, and Tal Alexander is 40.
CBS News reported that Alon, Oren and Tal Alexander were sentenced to 30 years in prison for sex trafficking after the trio was convicted of drugging and raping dozens of women. Like The Guardian, CBS News put the number of women at dozens.
BBC News reported that the three brothers were found guilty of drugging and raping several women over the course of decades. Its headline also describes each brother as sentenced to 30 years in prison in a sex trafficking case. The BBC's figure of several women differs from the dozens reported by The Guardian and CBS News, and the reports cited here do not reconcile the two figures.
All three outlets reported a 30-year prison term for the brothers. The reports do not give the dates of the offenses beyond the BBC's reference to decades, and they do not describe the individual crimes against each woman.
