Anna Sorokin the “Fake Heiress”, who has been released last week from the United States Immigiration and Customs Enforcement custody, was seen wearing a rather unique accessory – an ankle monitor. She was seen with the accessory outside her New York City apartment on Tuesday.
Anna Sorokin also known by the alias Anna Delvey, was seen wearing sunglasses as she stepped outside her New York City apartment, along with a black trench coat, stilletos and her GPS ankle monitor issued by the government.
Anna Sorokin was released from the the ICE custody
The 31-year-old was sprung from ICE custody late Friday and was instead confined to house arrest, which she will carry out at an East Village apartment. Just Sunday, she was spotted partaking in a photoshoot in her apartment and on the rooftop of the building.
Sorokin, whose story re-emerged after the release of the Netflix show, “Inventing Anna,” reportedly spoke to the New York Times just hours after she was released. She told the newspaper she chose to dispute her immigration case in ICE custody, rather than from Germany, because she “did not want it to go down the way ICE wanted it to.”
“Letting them deport me would have been like a sign of capitulation — confirmation of this perception of me as this shallow person who only cares about obscene wealth, and that’s just not the reality,” she reportedly said. “I could have left, but I chose not to because I’m trying to fix what I’ve done wrong.”
She said she was most excited about “finding [her] way back,” according to the report, and said she is “not a glam-it-up type of person, but the possibilities are endless.”
Sorokin was reportedly required to produce three months’ worth of her lease, which Fox News Digital learned was $4,500 per-month.
When asked in the New York Times interview where the money was “coming from,” she responded: “I guess you’ll have to ask the government.”
Asked about her plans for the future, she said she is working on several “projects,” including “art,” and added that she is working on a podcast.
“I’d love to do something with criminal justice reform to kind of highlight the struggles of other girls,” she went on.
Sorokin spent years posing as the rich daughter of a German diplomat. She boasted the bogus fortune of 60 million euros and was seen among the New York City social scene for years before her scheme was foiled.
She was convicted in 2019 on theft of services and larceny charges, though she plans to appeal the conviction. She was released in early 2021 — but was taken into ICE custody just weeks later.
Last week, a judge granted her release on $10,000 under the condition of 24-hour house arrest and a social media ban as she fights her deportation, according to previous Fox News Digital reports. Immigration authorities are seeking to have her deported to Germany, where she has citizenship, for overstaying her visa.
