Anand Jon

Anand Jon Alexander, professionally known as Anand Jon, is an Indian-born American fashion designer convicted of rape and other sex offenses. Jon appeared on America's Next Top Model and was listed in Newsweek magazine's "Who's Next in 2007?". In November 2008, Jon was convicted at the Los Angeles Court on one count of rape and multiple counts of lesser sexual offenses. He was sentenced to 59 years to life. Jon was facing similar charges in New York and Texas, but before the trial began in 2013, the New York prosecutors accepted his guilty plea, and he was sentenced to time served. Jon successfully resolved the overlapping out of state cases in NY and TX on the very same charges in CA, and is currently appealing his conviction in Federal Court for his release in CA.
