Brother of a millionaire real estate agent hits back against rape accuser

Luxury real estate agent Tal Alexander – who, like his brothers Oren and Alon, is accused of sexual harassment and is being investigated by the FBI – claimed on Thursday that the rape charges against him are nothing more than extortion.

Angelica Parker has filed a lawsuit against Alexander. She claims that the real estate agent and his brother Alon raped her in the fall of 2012. The attack was “planned and facilitated” by Oren in the millionaire brothers’ Soho apartment.

Parker’s lawsuit alleges that the siblings abused her and a friend who had visited their apartment: The women were offered ecstasy and Alon made drinks for the women. But the friend fled after Alon allegedly hit on and groped her. She was concerned for Parker’s safety and remained in a stairwell, the lawsuit says.

Alon and Tal then raped Parker, the lawsuit says, while Oren sat by and watched.

But on Thursday, Tal’s legal team filed a response to Parker’s lawsuit denying her allegations and calling her “a professional plaintiff who has filed at least two other lawsuits accusing individuals of sexual misconduct. One of those lawsuits was dismissed after a New York state judge concluded that the lawsuit was frivolous.”

While other women sued 36-year-old twins Alon and Oren for sexual assault, Parker was the first to name 38-year-old Tal as the alleged rapist.

Parker’s attorney, Michael J. Willemin, told the Daily Beast that Tal’s response to her lawsuit smacked of victim shaming.

“It appears that the defendants in this case are already in the process of shaming our client because she has experienced more than one trauma in her life,” Willemin, a partner at Wigdor LLP, said in an email. “It is unfortunately typical for alleged perpetrators of sexual assault and rape to shame their victims.”

“This tactic did not work in the cases against people like Roger Ailes, Diddy and Harvey Weinstein. It will not work in this case either.”

In 2011, Parker (then known as Angelica Cecora) sued boxer Oscar De La Hoya for assault and false imprisonment in connection with an encounter at the Ritz-Carlton. The judge dismissed the case, calling it “meritless.” New York Post was reported at the time.

Willemin​​​​ recently told the post He said if his client’s lawsuit against De La Hoya were filed today, he does not believe it would be dismissed because the courts’ and the public’s view of sexual assault allegations has changed.

“Ultimately… according to the reporting,” Willemin added, “there are dozens of women who have confirmed the Alexander brothers’ penchant for sexually harassing women.”

Parker states in her lawsuit that in the years following the assault, she came into contact with the real estate agent brothers through “their numerous mutual friends and acquaintances.” They made “various defamatory statements about” her and “told their friends without reason that they had had sex with her.”

The indictment accuses Tal of attempting to attack Parker again years later – this time in the guest room of a house. That alleged attempt was thwarted after Parker screamed and Tal called her “the king’s rat” because he was thrown out of the house.

Parker’s lawsuit also states that she “knows numerous other women who were sexually abused by one or more of the Alexander brothers.”

She “learned that it was common knowledge that the Alexander brothers often violently raped, drugged, and enticed women into having sex by posing as one of their brothers (i.e., Alon posing as Oren and vice versa),” the filing continues.

Not long after Parker filed her lawsuit, Tal resigned from his billion-dollar brokerage firm, OFFICIAL, so he could, in the words of his lawyer, “fully focus on clearing his name.”

Tal claims in his complaint filed Thursday that Parker “is attempting to use the legal system to pursue trumped-up charges in order to financially enrich himself. The truth is in stark contrast to the sensationalist and inflammatory allegations in the complaint.”
