Katie Reul editor Russian-born con-artist Anna Sorokin, better known by her alias “Anna Delvey,” is being released from federal jail on a $10,000 bail bond after being arrested by immigration authorities for overstaying her visa in March 2021.

Sorokin is required to remain in a 24-hour home confinement with electronic monitoring and no access to social media, per Bloomberg. “We are extremely gratified by the court’s decision today to release Anna Sorokin,” said Duncan Levin, Sorokin’s lawyer. “The judge rightfully recognized that Anna is not a danger to the community.” One month prior to her arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, Sorokin was released on parole for good behavior after serving just three years of her four-to-12 year sentence.

She was first convicted in May 2019 on eight counts, including theft of services and grand larceny. The 31-year-old became a Netflix sensation and international topic of conversation behind bars after the February release of “Inventing Anna,” a series that depicts Sorokin’s fraudulent escapades posing as a German heiress in upper Manhattan.

However, Sorokin initially stated she had no desire to watch the series she had inspired. “Nothing about seeing a fictionalized version of myself in this criminal-insane-asylum setting sounds appealing to me,” Sorokin wrote in an essay with Insider.
