WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A Miami judge granted bail Friday to a prominent real estate agent and his twin brother who are facing charges sexual abuse charges. However, they will not be released while they face a separate federal sex trafficking case with another brother.
Circuit Judge Lody Jean granted a $3 million bond to Oren Alexander, 37, and a $2 million bond to Alon Alexander. The band is insured by their father’s home in Bal Harbour, Florida.
“I am confident that these are reasonable terms that you have all put in place,” Jean told the lawyers.
Their brother, Tal Alexander, 38, appeared in a federal courtroom in Miami on Wednesday on a federal sex trafficking charge involving all three brothers. He is expected back in federal court later Friday.
Authorities arrested the brothers Wednesday on sex crime charges in Miami and a federal sex trafficking case in New York City. A federal indictment accuses the brothers of using their wealth to lure, drug, sexually abuse and rape multiple women over more than a decade.
The Alexander twins’ actions on Thursday stemmed from state charges in three separate cases of sexual assault. Oren Alexander faces three separate charges, while Alon Alexander faces only one charge.
The Alexander brothers’ case gained national attention after allegations against them were made public months ago. Oren and Tal Alexander had become stars in luxury real estate after co-founding their real estate company Official, which specialized in luxury real estate in Miami, New York and Los Angeles.
The circuit judge also approved house arrest for the twin brothers on Friday and ordered them to stay away from the victims. The judge also noted that the brothers had surrendered their passports to federal authorities.
