Crime Stories with Nancy Grace

Fake Heiress Anna Delvey Claims "EXPLOITATION"

05 Oct 2024

Description

Fake German heiress Anna Sorokin conned her way into Manhattan society. Posing as Anna Delvey, a German heiress, she swindled banks, hotels, and friends out of more than $200,000. She forged checks to get money from banks and charmed people into paying for extravagant meals, and travel. Sorokin was convicted on a handful of grand larceny and theft of services charges. After serving her time, the 31-year-old was released from prison, now, fighting being deported, but again Sorokin falls on her feet. First, she landed a deal with Netflix for the rights to her life story, then began selling her artwork, and then Sorokin says her home confinement and social media ban is “more restrictive” than jail. Now, Delvey shines with her bedazzled ankle monitor on  ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars.” The glitz didn't last long however,  with Delvey exiting the competition after just two week.. She says the network and show used her to drive up ratings.    Joining Nancy Grace Today: Wendy Patrick: Trial Attorney & author of “Red Flags” Jeff Cortese: Former FBI supervisory special agent Dr. William July: Psychologist John Lemley: Crime online investigative reporter See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
