Anna Sorokin, known as Anna Delvey, the inspiration behind Netflix’s Inventing Anna was released from prison and is now under house arrest.
Anna was a con artist, a scammer who defrauded wealthy friends, banks, hotels, and more.
She is in home confinement in New York City, according to her spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, as reported by U.S media outlets.
She is now fighting deportation to Germany.
Anna served three years of prison, then was detained last year by immigration authorities.
She told The New York Times journal that she is now ‘happy’ to be on house arrest.
The thing she enjoys the most about house arrest is the better food.
In order to be put on house arrest, Anna was required to pay a $10,000 bail, provide a residential address where she will stay for the duration of her immigration case, and refrain from social media posting, said the Guardian’s new website.
Anna was first arrested on October 3, 2017, by the Los Angeles Police Department.
Delvey’s crimes included stealing approximately $275,000 through multiple scams.
She attempted a plea deal in 2018 but the judge refused.
In April 2019, Anna was convicted of eight charges, including second-degree grand larceny, theft of services, and first-degree attempted grand larceny.
Delvey was sentenced to four to 12 years in prison, fined $24,000, and ordered to pay restitution to her victims on May 2019.
Anna now plans to pursue an art carrier, considering that art was always something she was passionate about. She confided to New York Times that she is already working on a podcast with different guests and writing a book.
