A former business associate of Tal and Oren Alexander — brothers with ties to the world of high-end real estate in Miami and New York City, who were convicted this week in federal court of drugging and sexually assaulting several women — filed a lawsuit Friday accusing several news outlets of defaming him.
A third brother, Alon Alexander, was also convicted in the case.
That business associate, Ohad Fisherman, was charged in 2024 with sexual battery, accused of helping Tal and Oren Alexander sexually assault a woman more than 10 years ago. But the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office dismissed the case against him after a video surfaced placing Fisherman on a boat near Miami Beach around the time of the alleged assault.
Fisherman, also a real estate broker, says his reputation was tarnished by the ensuing media coverage, including what he calls false and defamatory statements made by four news outlets: the Miami Herald, real estate news site the Real Deal and Miami-based television stations WPLG Local 10 News and WSVN 7 News.
