The fake European heiress has recently been released from detention and has kept busy doing a photo shoot while under house arrest on the Lower East Side.

[You can find all our puzzles here](https://www.nytimes.com/crosswords). “I think she sees this as a chance to make something of the last handful of years being behind bars.” A gust of wind kicked up suddenly, tossing bits of tattered papers, leaves and other debris in our direction. Sorokin’s love of fashion — and her disdain for anyone who dressed poorly, in her eyes — was a trope of the Netflix show. [eight victims of the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary and an F.B.I. And as a reporter, she said, “that’s what you should be doing — no matter who you’re talking to.” It was Sorokin herself who told Palmer the day she would be released. “It was photoshopping bank statements and her sort of convincing banker men to fall at her feet.” While behind bars, she was the subject of a Netflix show, “Inventing Anna.” Last weekend she was released from detention on a separate charge of overstaying her visa. Despite the dash of Hollywood theatrics in the streaming version, the courtroom drama was anything but, Palmer said. Her editor, Jim McKinley, suggested that she look into the unusual case of Sorokin, a 20-something con artist who had been particularly successful at parting wealthy New Yorkers from their cash. I cannot get enough of Anna Sorokin, also known as Anna Delvey, the bogus European heiress who was convicted of swindling New York City’s elite, using the money they invested in a fake private club to furnish her lavish lifestyle.
