Anna Delvey Is Reportedly Being Deported to Germany

New York City’s favorite grifter, Anna Delvey — née Sorokin — has reportedly been released from the detention center in upstate New York where she’s been imprisoned for a year. The New York Post reports that she will be deported to Germany on Monday night.

After years of scamming New York City’s elite banks, hotels, and jet setters out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, Delvey was arrested in 2017 and eventually convicted on several charges, including grand larceny and theft of services.

She spent just under four years in prison, paying off her debts largely with the funds Netflix paid her to adapt New York’s feature about her life into the show Inventing Anna. She was released on good behavior in February 2021, only to be seized by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement six weeks later for overstaying her visa (originally from Russia, Delvey’s family moved to Germany when she was a teenager).

Since then, she’s been held at Orange County Correctional Facility, an ICE detention center in Goshen, New York. In an essay written from custody earlier this year, she painted a grim portrait of her confinement, which she described as a “criminal-insane-asylum setting.”

Now, she’s reportedly scheduled to board a flight to Frankfurt on Monday night. She apparently previously filed an appeal to remain in the U.S., and at least one source claims she’s furious about being sent back. Fortunately, she may still have a chance to speak her mind: She’s slated to appear on the podcast “Call Her Daddy” on Wednesday, though it’s not clear if her deportation will affect her interview.
