Alexander Brothers Found Guilty on All Counts in Sex-Trafficking Trial
Source: NYT, No Paywall
Three brothers, including two who were among the countrys most prominent real estate brokers, were convicted in Manhattan on Monday of engaging in a yearslong conspiracy to traffic women and girls for sex.
The brothers Tal and Oren Alexander, who regularly closed multimillion-dollar real estate deals in New York and elsewhere, and Alon Alexander, a security executive were found guilty on every count they each faced, and all could now receive up to life in prison when the judge, Valerie E. Caproni, sentences them on Aug. 6.
The verdict comes more than a month after the trial began in Federal District Court, where the jury heard weeks of emotional and often graphic testimony from 11 women who had accused the brothers of rape or sexual assault. The jurors deliberated for about 21 hours over three days.

(649 posts)Why so long? I assume there are a lot of factors the judge has to consider, but could she have been doing that (or a clerk could have) during the trial? It just seems too long.
Will they be held in jail awaiting sentencing? If not, how do they make sure the guys won't flee? Loosing bail seems like a good deal for them to avoid life in prison.
Confused rather than assuming malice or systemic favor for the wealthy. But damn ...

If it were a federal case I think he might do so, just like he has pardoned many fraudsters. Trying to set a precedent should he ever need it?

(1,917 posts)These are NOT a coincidence.
We see evidence of a global CSA and sex trafficking clearly.
DOJ covered it up in the US, Andrew's Royal Protection officers "turned a blind eye" or enabled his activities.
Who knows where else there are connections?
I want congressional candidates to be banging down the walls for an investigation!
If we can spend $1 B a day on Bibis insane dream, we can spend that on saving girls and women.
Unless, the world really doesnt care
Because powerful and rich men can get away with anything and everything.
Thanks for reading.

Also, it seems SOME rich pedophiles can go to jail if they don't have enough rich connected friends.
