This week on The Trial: USA, we take you inside a Manhattan courtroom where the sex trafficking trial of Tal, Oren and Alon Alexander has entered its third week - and testimony has left people in tears.
Once high-flying real estate brokers to the rich and famous, the brothers now face federal charges alleging they used wealth and status to lure women - including minors - before drugging and assaulting them. They have pleaded not guilty.
Senior Reporter Luke Kenton, who has been inside the courtroom throughout - joins us to describe the atmosphere, the reactions from the brothers and their families, and the explosive text messages prosecutors say reveal a pattern of “hunting,” drugs and manipulation. We break down the key witnesses so far, the emotional turning points, and what to expect when the trial resumes after a brief hiatus.
Plus:
A landmark case is currently unfolding in Georgia, as a father goes on trial in connection with the Apalachee High School shooting - carried out by his 14-year-old son.
Jury selection concludes in Utah ahead of the trial of Kouri Richins, accused of poisoning her husband with a fentanyl-laced Moscow Mule, before publishing a children’s book about grief.
