The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I was 14 years old. I sold my dad's S 500, a hundred thousand dollar car. I've never driven it. I drove it 50 miles down south San Diego, picked up all my friends doing it, bought everything at Chanel at Neiman Marcus. Where did you get the money? I went to Neiman Marcus and I lied on the credit card. application saying I was 18.

I used my credit to get a huge credit limit and I was buying everyone Chanel. I took everyone to lunch. I drove back safely. The car was fine, but I got in some big shit for that. And you had a credit card debt at 14. Yeah, but I think legally 18 is the age that you have to, you can only go into a contract. So I got out of that one, I think.

They came home, they asked me, and I think my mom cut up literally with scissors, right?
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
All my clothes I ever bought there, and even Marcus. She just took scissors and just cut it all up.

Finally, she said, So it was never stolen money. It was a matter of perception. Well, that's not true.

Watching my mom do everything and take care of so many things, I also wanted to do the same.

I would say the women here are bred to marry and not to work. So you would find, I would find a lot of girls to be my friends here in Orange County.

who we our friendship never lasted because i worked and so they wouldn't understand why i couldn't pick up their calls or take them to lunch or or whatnot and it's frustrating it was because you know i am career focused and all these women just expect men to pay their way and a lot of them do a lot of them do sarah didn't want to be arm candy she wanted to be respected for her wit her ambition her edge and she did find someone that respected her for those things

If I go to law school, I'm going to be top of the class. That's just who I am, and you'll have to buy me this car. And he just laughed in my face, and he said, you are street smart, not book smart. After the first year of law school, I was top of the top 2%, okay?

When I graduated, I got a G63.

He was very supportive, but he pushed me really hard. He just, he wanted me to be the best, which I appreciated. But I think at the time, it was, he was trying to turn me into somebody I wasn't.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
What kind of relationship did you have with him? Business. We were excellent business partners. Excellent, actually. So I miss him for that.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
And I noticed that we'd go places and once the drinks were done and once shopping was over, he had nothing to say. He couldn't keep a conversation at all with me. I'd even ask him questions about sports, cars, watches, whatever his interests are. And he could not, he just gave me yes or no answers.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
He threw a bag of Hershey Kisses on the counter. And I just, I realized that we are better off being friends and business partners than we'll ever be romantic.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I was looking for a way out of law. Law is so miserable. I hate being a lawyer. It makes no money whatsoever. Okay, well, let me invest because I need to make money. I can't be a lawyer for the rest of my life.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
We were home in bed and watching TV and I said, I turned off the television and I looked at him and I said, why don't we talk about, let's talk about something because I love conversation.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
It doesn't have to go anywhere, but I just, I want someone to be able to keep my interest with the conversation. And, um, I brought up sports again and cars and he just, yes or no answered me. And I looked at him. I never forget.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I was, I was brokenhearted, but I said, you know, I think we're better off friends and business partners than in a romantic relationship because I said, you can't keep a conversation with me. And I want that. And, um, He flipped out. Oh my God, he flipped out. He just started like pacing around the house and just pissed off.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I wish I lived there now. It was all marble counters and, you know, those little round lights that you see on those makeup tables all around the mirrors. It was gorgeous.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
But I was trying to explain to him like, look, this is what I think we should do. And we still had companies together. We had other investments together. And I said, let's just work through those and we'll just go our separate ways romantically.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I had to talk to the girls at the strip club. I was the pimp of the night, essentially. They knew what they were doing is wrong, and I would be by their side to make sure they didn't get caught. I would bully them. I would just straight up lie and say, I'm going to take you to court. I'm calling the FBI on you. And boom, you got paid. So it worked out. I love everything mafia.

The real amenity of being in a villa is the service, is the butler's service. I started with champagne for breakfast. You know, the butlers would come in with white gloves and feed my dog.

It was like an infinity pool that would pour over and you don't know where it's going, but it's beautiful.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
They loved me so much, I guess I took care of everyone so well, that they put a sign on my door that said the king.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I didn't answer because I'm in the bathtub. So I think they must have seen me on camera go in the room. Then they called my bathroom phone. Then I answered the phone and they said, we're right outside your door. Can you open it?
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I can sell anything. I can sell fire to the devil.

So I did. I mean, I put a robe on. I went out. And they said, Miss King, like, you have to leave the premises. And I was like, what?
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I said, you know what, guys? Sit tight. I have a lot to pack. They would pour me champagne while I was packing. I have my toiletry bags. I have my regular clothes bags. It took me an hour and a half to pack. And they were like, we'll do a discreet car for you. They sent me out the private entrance. They said they'd take me wherever I wanted.

Hi, it's Sarah King. I heard you're looking for me.

We have my mom, my dad, myself, and my grandmother living in a studio apartment with three dogs.

Don't fucking take Prozac. That's the only way I would survive this at all. It just keeps me calm. Otherwise, I would lose my mind. I'd go insane.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I applied for the job. I worked there for like four months in handbags. I sold handbags. And one day my manager told me, you have to go to the store manager. She wants to talk to you. I said, okay. So I go downstairs, and she told me, this is what we know about you. And I just said, yeah, that's true, but it's just the media. The case isn't even resolved yet.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
I'm actually a great employee because I have to keep accountable. I have to always be here. And I was top sales, so go figure. But they decided to terminate me.

My mom had to go back to work. Mind you, she built an empire years ago.

Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
My mom actually started the company that was the fortune for our family, which is amazing. And so I always saw her working hard, dressing beautifully. It was an insurance brokerage company.
The Binge Crimes: Finding Mom's Killer
Lady Mafia | 1. “Anna Delvey of the OC”
She did extraordinarily well all on her own. And my dad later on became a big support for her in that and ran the business with her.
