NEW YORK (AP) — The wealthy Alexander brothers used the same tactics of luring, drugging and humiliation to sexually assault numerous women and girls, bragging about their exploits in blog posts with titles that included “It’s not rape if,” a federal prosecutor told jurors Tuesday.

The allegations are corroborated by the “sheer number of victims who testified,” the prosecutor said — women who never have met each other and live different lives, but “have one horrific thing in common: they were raped by these men.”
Far from hiding their activity, the brothers bragged about it in text messages, emailed about sneaking drugs — or “party favors” — onto a cruise ship, recorded at least one assault on video and shared photos of victims, Jones said, calling it “devastating evidence” supporting the charges against them.
Oren and Tal Alexander, high-end real estate brokers dubbed “The A Team,” and their brother Alon, an executive at their family’s private security firm, have pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking and other charges.
In a closing argument, a lawyer for Alon Alexander said prosecutors conflated the brothers’ “obnoxious” and admittedly inappropriate banter with grave criminal allegations. Alon “should be and is embarrassed” by the language he used — but “talk doesn’t constitute a crime,” defense lawyer Howard Srebnick argued.
The defense’s closing arguments will continue on Wednesday.
The brothers are accused of meeting victims at nightclubs, parties and on dating apps, and recruited others for trips to ritzy locales, paying for flights and lodging at high-end hotels or luxe vacation rentals before drugging and raping them. After witnessing an assault at a Hamptons mansion, one woman pulled out her eyeliner and wrote “RAPIST” on a bedroom door, Jones said.

They lured women with trips, travel tickets, entertainment etc. Ok, they are bad… but when does the stupidity of select women enter the picture? What did they expect?
Nah.
A cell with Bubba or Tyrone.
They can be the wife.
They remind me of those perverted Tate Brothers. Maybe some day they’ll paying for their actions.
Sadly now women must be more and more wary and cynical, expecting all men to be depraved perverts, liars, villains, and evil exploiters of trust.
“expecting all men”
There is that absolutism that I despise. Sounds just like the talking points I hear from every AWFL I have to interact with. Yet they hate it when we men say all women are XXX... And you wonder why the younger generation of males is steering wide from American girls.
1) Men should not do this. It’s very wrong.
2) Women should go out with “nice guys” and avoid “rich guys” because the rich guys know that they can have fun (one way or another) and never bother to commit.Women can choose to be used, or they can seek a real relationship.
Believe it or not a lot of women think guys want to be just fun friends and aren’t expecting sex and definitely aren’t expecting to be drugged and raped. Especially younger women and girls. Just because you’re naive or dumb isn’t a reason to be raped. A lot of women go thru this, they are just lucky the guys making moves aren’t predator rapists.
Truth, there.
Both men and women should be, as younger people in the dating world, be looking for those who will make a good wife or husband. I wasn’t particularly good at that, so can speak from experience...
Yep yep. I mean these guys already had most of what it takes to get legit women consensually so I think that’s actually gonn hurt them in this trial. Greedy spoiled rich punks.
Not really stupidity. More like greed and opportunism. A girl that goes on an overnight trip with a relative stranger on a generous expense account knows she is expected to put out. How she gets there is mostly up to her. If she pulls some condoms and lube out of her purse, she is probably not going to get it when she is too drunk or high to guide the sex to her tolerance. But if she thinks Mr. Wonderful is going to spend a few thousand dollars on her and she is going to short change him she will find out it is not that simple.
My sympathies to the girls who are GHB’d or duct taped. Their perpetrators should be imprisoned for the same amount of time as a person who would knock the teeth out of an 80 year old man. But a girl on a Carribean Yacht who has too much to drink and ends up sexed is on her own.

Alexander brothers.
“ But a girl on a Carribean Yacht who has too much to drink and ends up sexed is on her own.”
Do you really believe that?
You believe that it’s possible for a girl to put herself in situation where she then deserves to be raped?
What you are suggesting would mean that a female would be responsible for a crime against her just by being somewhere and getting drunk.
Your post reeks of narcissism.
The old “she was asking for it” defense.
Wonder if they are democrats?
M.O. sounds so
“Informed consent”
Exactly.
Reading some of the responses on this thread is shocking.
The one’s making some of the outlandish posts are likely jealous of these guys, are narcissist’s themselves, see women as “things”, etc.
Is the middle one adopted?
