Josephus alone offers scandalous specific triggers for these expulsions in his twenty-volume Antiquities of the Jews, which covers the history of the Jewish people from Adam and Eve right up to the First Jewish-Roman War.*
Who knows? Roman authors seem to know nothing about the more salacious details...which read more like a romance novel.
It really does sound implausible, and the only reference to this is Josephus as far as I can find in a superficial search. But if imagined, it is a pretty good imagination. And evidently it didn't take him decades of evolving stories to conjure it.
Thanks for the link to "executed today".
