Anna Sorokin, who for years targeted the wealthy to fund her invented lifestyle, was convicted Thursday of grand larceny and theft of services.
Anna Sorokin looks toward a court officer during jury deliberations at her trial in New York on Wednesday. By Alex Horton Alex Horton General assignment reporter covering national and breaking news Email Bio Follow April 26 at 2:03 PM It was a spun tale that mirrors corners of New York City itself: an extravagant promise to be near the hot center of prominence, obscured by a veneer of empty greed.
But as nabbed gangster Henry Hill said in the movie “Goodfellas” when the mob lifestyle came crashing down: Now, it’s all over. Sorokin was a regular at upscale hotels, showering concierge staff and Uber drivers with crisp $100 bills, according to a New York magazine profile, quickly becoming a mainstay in circles running thick with architects and artists.
The loan fell through, the AP reported, but Sorokin did land a $100,000 loan that she failed to repay. “She stole from banks,” state prosecutor Kaegan Mays-Williams said, according to the Times. “She stole from hotels. She stole from friends. She tried to steal from a hedge fund.”
