In a deepening scandal involving Miami's luxury real estate scene, Ohad Fisherman—a friend and colleague of the Alexander brothers—is set to return from his honeymoon to face sexual assault charges. As CBS News Miami reports, Fisherman will be arraigned in a Miami-Dade courtroom tomorrow. The allegations linking him to the Alexander brothers' case include taking part in a gang rape.
Meanwhile, brothers Oren and Alon Alexander were arrested and charged with rape and sexual assault in separate incidents, said Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle. According to WSVN, these incidents took place in December 2016, October 2017, and October 2021. Their older brother, Tal Alexander, faces additional charges in a federal sex trafficking case, which court documents allege to be decades-long and spanning between New York City and Miami.
Furthermore, Damian Williams, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, detailed how the brothers arranged not only domestic but also international trips to carry out the alleged crimes. According to CBS News Miami, the men are accused of providing drugs to women, rendering them "physically unable to fight back or to escape." This federal case is expected to be tried in New York, as the reach of the alleged crimes extends beyond Florida.
Tal Alexander has been deemed a flight risk by a federal judge and as such, has been denied bail. Decisions are pending on the state bond status for his brothers, Oren and Alon. The victims in this case, some of whom have spoken out anonymously, await justice with a mix of relief and trepidation. "I was relieved that finally something maybe something will happen. That they will pay for what they've done," one alleged victim told WSVN.
As the authorities further investigate and more details emerge, the stature and repute of the Alexander brothers' real estate empire wanes under the shadow of these serious allegations. A video captured FBI agents outside Oren Alexander's residence, signaling the gravity of federal involvement in the case, as relayed by Hoodline. With several women alleging misconduct, the ongoing legal proceedings may reveal further unsettling truths about the actions and operations of these once-esteemed Miami brokers.
