Alexander brothers found guilty

Three brothers -- two of whom dealt in "luxury real estate" -- were found guilty on all charges in their federal trial for sex trafficking in New York City. Between 2008 and 2021, the brothers drugged, raped, and trafficked an estimated 60 girls and women. Eleven of the victims testified in the trial.

We hear about Epstein and his long list of high-profile, wealthy clients.

And then there's these brothers in the story you linked to above.

And there's stories of border guards taking advantage of asylum seekers, who are also often targeted by "coyotes."

And there's horrific accounts of Russian soldiers doing unspeakable things when raiding Ukrainian towns and villages.

Too many people preying on the vulnerable.

I know there's a lot of good in the world. But many others need to be put away like the Alexander brothers.
