MIAMI — Ohad Fisherman, a friend of the Alexander brothers and embroiled in one of their criminal sex assault cases, is now free to travel wherever he wishes. A judge ordered his ankle monitor removed earlier this week after state prosecutors said there was no evidence linking him to any other crimes.

Miami-Dade Circuit Court Judge Lody Jean originally ordered Fisherman to wear a monitor until the state knew for certain he wasn’t accused of being involved in any other sex crimes with the Alexander brothers. This week, the state’s lead prosecutor confirmed that was the case.

“The prosecutor admitted there were no other alleged victims,” said Fisherman’s attorney Jeffrey Sloman.

Fisherman, 39, was charged in December along with twins Oren and Alon Alexander, 37, with taking part in the rape of a woman on Miami Beach on New Year’s Day in 2016. The woman claimed Fisherman held her down while the twins took turns raping her. She said they coerced her into visiting a Collins Avenue condo by sending pictures of a barbecue gathering with lots of people.

When she arrived, she told police, only the twins and Fisherman were there. Fisherman was charged with a single count of sexual battery by multiple perpetrators. Oren and Alon Alexander were charged with sexual battery.

After Fisherman’s December arrest, Jean ordered him fitted with a monitor to make certain he was limited to staying within Miami-Dade County, a condition of his bond. He was never under actual “house” arrest.

The charges forced Fisherman — who owns a hummus company and is a South Florida real estate broker — to return early from his honeymoon in Japan. With Wednesday’s ruling by Jean, he can now travel anywhere he wishes outside of Miami-Dade.

Jean had earlier set a tentative trial date for Fisherman and the Alexander twins of May 12. But getting Oren and Alon Alexander to attend the trial will be up to federal prosecutors who have custody of them. They’re now staying in a Brooklyn, New York jail on federal sex trafficking and rape charges.

Jean said she’s prepared to go ahead with Fisherman’s trial even if the Alexanders aren’t here.

Also during Wednesday’s hearing, Jean told attorneys for Fisherman and the Alexander brothers that they could subpoena the powerhouse Orlando personal injury firm representing the woman who claims she was raped. The attorneys want statements between the accuser and witnesses and her attorneys. They’re arguing that Morgan and Morgan recruited the woman and hand-held her as she approached police and prosecutors with the rape accusation.

Morgan and Morgan is expected to fight any subpoena.
