In the wake of a pair of explosive lawsuits claiming the wealthy real estate-heir Alexander brothers raped two women several years ago, about 30 more alleged victims have come forward with similar claims, according to the lawyer representing the plaintiffs.
“I’ve spoken to approximately 15 people who say to me they were raped by the Alexander brothers, one [brother] or more, at various times, in New York City, South Beach and in other states as well,” attorney Evan Torgan told The Real Deal, which first reported on the suits.
Torgan later told The Post he doubled the number because more and more women are coming to him with kindred accounts about the 36-year-old twins, Oren and Alon Alexander of Miami Beach, Florida.
“I’m talking to new victims every day,” Torgan said.
It’s the latest twist in the shocking story of the brothers’ sudden fall from grace, which began over the weekend when The Real Deal reported on damning lawsuits brought by alleged victims Kate Whiteman and Rebecca Mandel.
The multimillionaire brothers are accused of committing “heinous” acts that were “extreme and outrageous to such an extent that the action was atrocious and intolerable in a civilized society,” according to court filings.
In her suit, Whiteman alleged the brothers abducted her in 2012 and brought her to a Hamptons party palace in Water Mill, Long Island, that’s owned by the flamboyant, cape-wearing, banking heir-turned-recording artist Ivan Wilzig.
There, the brothers allegedly dragged her into a large bedroom where she was “sexually assaulted, abused, raped, pinned, groped, harassed, battered, and fondled by defendants Alon and Oren.”
In the second suit, Mandel claimed Alon allegedly spiked her drink after she met the twins in 2010 at a now-shuttered club in the Meatpacking District when she was just 18 years old, according to court documents.
The brothers later raped her in their apartment after luring her there under false pretenses, her lawsuit alleges.
“I am proud of what we are doing here,” Torgan added in a statement to The Post. “And proud of all the people who have come forward with their story — especially Kate Whiteman and Rebecca Mandel who did it with great bravery.”
The Alexander brother’s attorney, Jim Ferraro, has denied the allegations and painted the lawsuits as a blatant money grab.
“We are confident this matter will be resolved in [their] favor given an extensive collection of powerful evidence including, phone records, text messages, emails and other documents whose content clearly debunks these claims,” he said in an earlier statement to The Post.
But Ferraro has not responded to further requests for comment, including a Wednesday inquiry.
Despite the denials, there have already been concrete consequences for at least one of the men.
On Tuesday, one of the brothers stepped away from the company he co-founded because of the allegations, which the firm described in an internal email obtained by The Post as “extremely disturbing.”
The lawsuits were filed under the New York Adult Survivors Act, which has let alleged survivors of sexual assault to seek justice regardless of when the assaults occurred.
So far, no one else has filed a lawsuit against the twins, who live in Miami Beach and hail from a real estate dynasty led by their father, Shlomy Alexander.
But additional claims have apparently landed on The Real Deal’s Instagram page, which is laden with comments from accounts claiming they were either attacked by the Alexanders or know people who were, the outlet said.
