Prosecutors said Alexander-Wilcox confessed to kidnapping and rape, along with four other shootings and an armed carjacking.
The masked men forced their way into a Miramar couple s home on Oct. 11 and held them at gunpoint for almost 24 hours, authorities said.
Miramar police said the trio accused the couple s nephew of stealing $20,000 from them, and demanded the same amount from the couple.
“This is an incredibly terrible crime,” Assistant United States Attorney Ajay Alexander said during Alexander-Wilcox s hearing. “This wasn’t for a couple hours or a couple minutes. This was for a full day. They stayed overnight, ate food, drank their liquor.”
