Israel’s Top Cyber Chief Arrested for Pedophilia in Vegas But Then Released Without Explanation
In a two-week child predator sting, Las Vegas police arrested eight males on August 13, 2025, in collaboration with the FBI, Homeland Security, and Nevada’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
One of the men was 38-year-old Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, who works directly for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and is Israel’s top cyberwarfare official.
Alexandrovich and the others were accused of luring a minor using a computer for a sex act, which is a felony in Nevada that carries a maximum punishment of 20 years in jail, according to Las Vegas Metro Police.
The arrests were reported by Fox 5 Las Vegas in their official press release.
Alexandrovich is not only another official. He is the brains behind Israel’s intelligence apparatus.
He protects Israel’s vital infrastructure, including its power grids, airports, and sensitive intelligence networks, in his capacity as Acting Head of Data & AI for the Israel National Cyber Directorate.
Alexandrovich previously built Israel’s multi-million dollar “Cyber Dome,” an AI-driven cyber security system intended to identify and eliminate threats before they reach the country, while serving as Executive Director of the Cyber security Division.
With unfettered access to Israel’s most sensitive cyber secrets and international intelligence collaborations, he has been constructing the nation’s digital stronghold.
After being detained in the United States for heinous sexual offenses against children, why in the world was this man given a pass and permitted to travel to Israel?
While U.S. authorities publicly listed Alexandrovich’s arrest, Israeli outlet Ynet pretends it was just a minor incident:
“An employee of the Israel National Cyber Directorate… was briefly detained for questioning… before his release and return to Israel… The reasons for the questioning remain unclear.”
No mention of the felony charges.
No mention of the multi-agency sting targeting child predators.
Nothing about FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, or Nevada authorities being involved. The Israeli media didn’t soften the story — they buried it entirely.
Questions That Need Answers
Diplomatic immunity does not apply to Alexandrovich.
He wasn’t a registered diplomat; he was in Las Vegas for a business convention.
However, a few days after his detention, he was freed and permitted to return to Israel without a trial, bail, or public statement.
What regular person gets arrested for attracting a child online and then gets away with it?
For victims, what message does this convey?
Furthermore, why would the United States, which prides itself on being a global leader in the fight against child abuse, make such a conspicuous exemption for an Israeli official?
Who at the US Department of Justice gave the go-ahead for Alexandrovich to be released?
Did the State Department, the White House, or even Netanyahu himself exert pressure on this decision, or was it made on his own?
This is a breach of national security, not just criminal negligence.
After being detained in a U.S. sting, Alexandrovich, a senior cyber intelligence official, was discreetly transported home rather being charged.
That isn’t the police.
It’s a cover-up.
This is not a singular occurrence.
From political allies to fugitive rabbis, Israeli authorities frequently provide protection to influential men who are suspected of sexual offenses.
They hush the victims. Predators are allowed to roam wild.
The case of Alexandrovich demonstrates what many already suspect: Israel exercises influence over the United States, tampers with the legal system, and shields pedophiles in order to get away with it.
“Why?” is no longer the question.
It concerns who else is being safeguarded in the background and the extent of the control.
