The Retreat Calls Attention to Human Trafficking in Light of Alexander Brothers Indictment

The Retreat, an East Hampton-based nonprofit agency that provides services to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault and offers violence prevention community education, is calling attention to sex trafficking and sexual assault on the South Fork in light of the recent indictment of the Alexander brothers. Oren and Tal Alexander, who were luxury real estate brokers in Miami, New York and the Hamptons, and their brother Alon were arrested in December on federal charges of sex trafficking. Authorities described a pattern of sexual abuse spanning more than a decade in which they allegedly lured woman through “deception, fraud and ... 20 Dec 2024 by Staff Writer

Let It Play Out

My response, Harry Mainzer, to your argument that Pete Hegseth is unqualified for nomination and confirmation as secretary of defense is: Let the process play out [“Kakistocracy,” Letters, December 19]. My disagreement with you is primarily with the faceless, anonymous sources that have been used to contaminate the fairness of this nomination. For Donald Trump supporters, it is all too reminiscent of the innuendo, lies and outright subterfuge of the initial Trump presidency by a Democratic Party and its complicit media, which abandoned its journalistic responsibilities to amplify doubt and falsehoods. It is clear that you don’t see it from ... by Staff Writer

Reap Joy

I immersed myself in the Hamptons Doc Fest this December, both as a volunteer and a filmgoer. I hadn’t attended more than a handful of films over the festival’s history, now in its 17th year; however, my recent involvement electrified me with the intoxicating breadth and vitality of this magnificent event! From founder Jacqui Lofaro and her mainstay of directors, to its staff and boards, to its sponsors and patrons, the Hamptons Doc Fest is a hard-driving jubilee rivaling any international film festival. I read a quote that film festivals are “niche businesses.” Upon offering my aid shortly after eye ... by Staff Writer

Swords Into Plowshares

It isn’t the first potato truck I learned to drive, but it’s the same kind, a retrofitted army truck, rugged and simple in accord with its unstoppable American design. When the engine cranks and comes to life — as it has for 50 years, and will for 50 more — patriotic old men, many of them farmers, know to thank Detroit. But we’ve sold her. We’re thinning the fleet. A farm in Vermont wants this one. Almost all of our harvest trucks have a military surplus pedigree. With this pedigree comes a year. One of the oldest trucks, one we ... by Marilee Foster
