Where is Netflix’s Anna Sorokin today? Here’s what we know

Anna Sorokin, who lived her life pretending to be a wealthy German heiress under the name Anna Delvey has been released from prison.

On October 3, 2017, Anna was arrested in Los Angeles, California by the police department. This was thanks to a sting operation by the Los Angeles’s Police Department and the Manhattan District Attorney’s office.

Her story inspired the hit Netflix series, Inventing Anna.

She was convicted in 2019 of second-degree larceny and was sentenced to 4 to 12 years in prison, for continuously swindling banks.

She was released from prison on February 11, 2021. A month later, she was taken into custody by the ICE for over staying her visa.

Anna was later freed by ICE in 2022 with reports that she would be deported to Germany.

In an interview after her release from prison, Anna said she has a “different perspective” on life.

“I learned so much being in jail. There’s a very well-documented arc about how I’ve felt about everything,” she told The New York Times. “I am regretful about the way things played out. The way I’ve tried to see my experience is to learn from it: Who I am today is because of the decisions I made in the past.”

She has also made strides in repairing her relationship with her parents, saying that she speaks to them “every other day.” 

Anna—who recently launched a career as an artist—is now focusing on her future, telling the outlet that she doesn’t want to box herself into only being an artist.

“I have a lot going on,” she noted. “I’m working on my own podcast with different guests for each episode. But it’s not shaped up yet. It was pretty hard to record anything high quality from jail. And then there’s my book. I’d love to do something with criminal-justice reform to kind of highlight the struggles of other girls.”

“We are extremely gratified by the court’s decision today to release Anna Sorokin,” her lawyer Duncan Levin said. “The judge rightfully recognised that Anna is not a danger to the community.”

Levin continued: “While there are still a few hurdles to jump through on her release conditions, Anna is thrilled to be getting out so she can focus on appealing her wrongful conviction.”

She was ordered to post $10,000 bail and must also remain in round-the-clock home confinement with electronic monitoring, Bloomberg reports.

Delvey has also lost all right to being active on social media as part of the deal.
