The twisted Alexander brothers — the former ritzy Manhattan movers and shakers who drugged and raped scores of women — could land life behind bars when sentenced Tuesday.
Nearly a dozen of the sick siblings’ victims could confront the trio of convicts — 39-year-old twins Oren and Alon and brother Tal, 40 — during what is expected to be an emotional all-day hearing in Manhattan federal court.
While Tal’s wife filed for divorce amid the explosive case, the catwalking spouses of his two brothers are expected to be on hand, too.
Tal and Oren — onetime powerhouse realtors who catered to celebs such as Kim Kardashian and Kanye West and helped sell hedge-funder Ken Griffin’s record-smashing $240 million Midtown penthouse — and their security-firm brother each face a minimum of 15 years in prison after a jury convicted them on sex-trafficking charges.
But prosecutors are insisting that a life sentence would be more appropriate because the brothers were found guilty of “sex crimes of extraordinary magnitude” — with 11 women testifying against them in court and more than 70 in all reporting being assaulted by the demented trio.
The brothers “spent years designing, executing, and perfecting their playbook of luring victims with promises of luxury, drugging victims so they could not resist, and then forcibly raping them,” the feds wrote to US District Judge Valerie Caproni earlier this month.
Caproni will sentence the three brothers at the end of the expected marathon hearing, during which the court could hear from as many as 11 women who have described being drugged, raped or groped by at least one of them after meeting on dating apps and at posh parties between 2008 and 2021.
Over the course of the brothers’ monthlong trial, jurors heard chilling evidence of the siblings sexually assaulting women — sometimes working together — at gaudy Hamptons mansions, inside New York City apartments, on a ski trip in Aspen, Colorado, and during a Caribbean cruise.
One of the accusers, a Ukrainian model using the alias “Bela Koval,” recalled being “paralyzed” by a drugged drink as Oren raped her inside a $13 million Sag Harbor mansion where the brothers hosted parties.
“It was like my whole body was tranquilized,” Koval testified.
A Nevada nurse using the alias “Maya Miller” described Tal violently raping her as she wept in the shower inside the same Hamptons party house, where he’d flown her and a friend for a long weekend in 2014.
Another accuser testified that Alon raped her inside a Manhattan apartment after she met him at an exclusive NBA Finals watch party hosted by actor Zac Efron, who was friendly with the brothers.
The brothers have asked the court to issue the minimum sentence of 15 years.
They “steadfastly maintain their complete innocence of these awful charges,” their lawyers wrote to the court.
