During the court proceedings, victims spoke of the psychological trauma they endured after being attacked, BBC News World reported. Maya Miller told the court that after Tal Alexander raped her in 2014, she lost all sense of safety. Another victim, using the pseudonym Isa Brooks, testified about being raped by Tal and Alon Alexander, according to BBC News World. Many victims asked the judge to hand down the maximum sentence of life in prison. [1]
