A third woman sued the Alexander twins, wealthy real estate heirs, for rape – but this time, the alleged victim claimed their older brother also participated in the alleged crimes and attempted to rape her again several years later.
The woman – Angelica Parker of New York – claimed that twins Oren and Alon, along with their older brother Tal, conspired to rape her in a “coordinated sexual assault” in the brothers’ shared apartment in SoHo shortly after. time after their meeting in the fall. of 2012, according to the lawsuit filed Tuesday.
Tal attempted to sexually assault her again several years later, according to the complaint filed in Manhattan Supreme Court. But Parker shouted loud enough for others to hear, stopping the alleged attack in its tracks.
“Today’s trial is intended to send the message that the law applies even to very wealthy and well-connected people, including the Alexanders,” Parker’s attorney, Michael J. Willemin, said in a statement at the Post.
“We applaud Angelica’s courage in coming forward, as we are confident the Alexanders will assemble an army of PR reps and private investigators to launch a victim-shaming campaign.”
Parker’s lawsuit said she went with an unidentified friend to the brothers’ shared apartment in SoHo in fall 2012 — and as soon as they walked through the door, twins Oren and Alon started pushing them to take ecstasy, according to the suit.
After the women refused, the brothers began pressuring them to have sex, according to the complaint.
Parker’s friend was said to have been “extremely uncomfortable” and took off.
But Parker stayed — and claimed she endured a horrific ordeal that ended with the brothers raping her “orally and vaginally,” according to the suit.
“After (the friend) left the apartment, Ms. Parker was raped by Alon and Tal Alexander, together, in a coordinated sexual assault that was planned and facilitated by Oren Alexandar and his brothers,” indicates the pursuit.
“Specifically, Alon Alexander raped Ms. Parker orally and vaginally,” the suit continues.
“While he was raping Ms. Parker vaginally, Tal forcibly raped Ms. Parker orally against her will, despite her very clear verbal protests and her inability to force him away due to both his size and the made Alon hold her down with his body weight.
Oren, who allegedly planned the entire event, sat and watched his brothers do this, according to the suit.
Eventually, Parker fought them off, fled the apartment and found her friend, according to the suit. But she kept running into the brothers because they hung out in the same social circles.
“During this period, the Alexander brothers made various defamatory statements about Ms. Parker, gratuitously telling her friends that they had had sex with her, without of course explaining that the entire event was gang rape orchestrated,” the complaint states.
Several years later, Tal allegedly tried to rape her again. But she screamed and effectively stopped her attack, according to the suit.
A spokesman for Tal Alexander denounced Parker’s lawsuit as a money grab.
“It is unfortunate but entirely normal that shakedown artists are aligning themselves given the allegations against Tal’s brothers,” the spokesperson said in a statement.
“However, Tal has done absolutely nothing wrong, and anyone hoping to peddle outrageous lies in hopes of a quick payday is going to find themselves disappointed.”
Parker – formerly known as Angelica Cecora – has already launched a $5 million lawsuit against famed boxer Oscar De La Hoya over allegations the ‘Golden Boy’ imprisoned her in his hotel room Ritz-Carlton on a naughty, cocaine-fueled tryst in 2011. .
But a five-judge panel in the Manhattan Appellate Division ruled in 2013 that his charges were “meritless” and refused to overturn a lower court ruling that imposed a $12,500 judgment for costs. legal – as well as a fine for what Judge Paul Wooten. described as an attempt to “maliciously harass or harm” De La Hoya.
Willemin, Parker’s lawyer, confirmed that she was the same person who sued the now-retired welterweight, but added that he did not believe his case against the boxer would be thrown out if he was filed today due to changes in how the courts and the public view sexual assault allegations.
Beyond that, he said the modus operandi of sexual assault defendants is to try to use a traumatic event from the victim’s past to try to shame her — or paint her as a shakedown artist.
“It’s not a he-said, it’s a she-said,” Willemin said.
“Ultimately…according to news reports, dozens of women confirmed the Alexander brothers’ predilection for sexual assault of women,” he continued.
“It was something that was well known in the circles they moved in – that’s clear from the reporting. So, despite these attempts to truly attack and shame my client, we are confident that she will ultimately prevail in this case.
Parker’s trial is another dark chapter in the Alexanders’ story, which took a shocking turn earlier this month when two other alleged victims – Kate Whiteman and Rebecca Mandel – filed equally explosive lawsuits accusing Oren and Alon, both 36, of raping them more than a decade ago.
Since then, nearly 30 other women have come forward to make similar claims, according to the attorney representing Whiteman and Mandel.
The allegations have shaken the posh circles in which the wealthy brothers move – and Oren has already been kicked out of Official, the brokerage firm he co-founded with Tal, 37.
Evan Torgan, an attorney for Whiteman and Mandel, said in a statement that his clients were “thrilled to be joined in this fight by Angelica Parker.”
“Alexander’s behavior has gone on for too long,” Torgan said. “We have to stop them. I was shocked to see Tal, among others, take over as the official face.
Parker is seeking an undisclosed amount of compensatory and punitive damages.
The twins’ attorneys did not respond to a request for comment.
