US EditionIsraeli Official Posted 'Standard Bail,' Never Saw Judge Before Release, DA Confirms
Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, a senior Israeli cyber official, was arrested for soliciting a minor during a two-week sting and released on $10,000 bail, then returned to Israel pending court dates.
- On August 6, Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, a 38-year-old senior official at Israel's National Cyber Directorate, was arrested in a Nevada multiagency sting targeting alleged child sex predators.
- In a two-week operation announced August 15, the Internet Crimes Against Children taskforce used a decoy posing as a 15-year-old to contact Tom Artiom Alexandrovich via Pure and WhatsApp during Black Hat USA 2025.
- Police documents show the chat turned sexual, with Alexandrovich agreeing to meet at Cirque du Soleil and bring a condom; after waiving Miranda rights, he said he believed he spoke to an adult under Nevada law.
- U.S. and Israeli statements diverged as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote, `Why did our government release a child sex predator from Israel who works directly under the Prime Minister of Israel?` while the U.S. State Department denied intervention.
- Alexandrovich is on leave, due back in court on August 27, and attorney David Z. Chesnoff said `Our client is presumed to be innocent` and `Mr. Alexandrovich intends to be in court whenever required by the court`.
