Fashion designer Anand Jon Alexander was convicted Thursday of sexually assaulting girls and women, some of them aspiring models who authorities say were lured to Los Angeles with rarely fulfilled promises of jobs and stays at luxury hotels.

After nearly two weeks of deliberation, a jury found the 34-year-old designer guilty of 14 felonies and two misdemeanors, including forcible rape, committing a lewd act upon a child and attempted sexual assault. Authorities say the seven victims ranged in age from 14 to 21.

He was acquitted of four felonies, including unlawful sexual intercourse. Jurors could not reach a verdict on three counts, and Superior Court Judge David Wesley declared a mistrial on those charges.

Outside court, defense attorney Leonard Levine said he plans to appeal. Alexander, who faces a maximum sentence of life in prison, would have to serve 67 years before he is eligible for parole, said prosecutorial spokeswoman Jane Robison.

Alexander's attorneys maintained that their client was innocent, saying that there was a lack of physical evidence and that his accusers lied in court and sought revenge.
