Convicted Swindler Anna Sorokin Spoke To The New York Times About How Important It Is To Her To Remain In New York Despite Risks Of Deportation
NEW YORK Convicted swindler Anna Sorokin spoke to The New York Times about how important it is to her to remain in New York despite risks of deportation.
Sorokin’s case became the basis for the series Inventing Anna on Netflix. She was released Friday from U.S immigration custody to house arrest. She told the Times she would feel like she was running from something if she were to let herself be deported to Germany.
Letting them deport me would have been like a sign of capitulation confirmation of this perception of me as this shallow person who only cares about obscene wealth, and thats just not the reality. Sorokin told the Times late Friday night.
Last week, an immigration judge cleared the way for Sorokin, 31, to be released to home confinement while the deportation fight plays out. Now, she is wearing an ankle monitor after posting a $10,000 bond.
Sorokin for years used the name Anna Delvey to pass herself off as the wealthy daughter of a German diplomat, and lied about having a $67 million bankroll overseas to create the impression that she could cover her debts, prosecutors said.
After serving three years in prison for conning $275,000 from banks, hotels and rich New Yorkers to finance her luxurious lifestyle, Sorokin was detained by immigration authorities last year who argued she had overstayed her visa and must return to Germany, where she is a citizen.

Good morning. Weekend cooking lets you slow down and embrace patience as a virtue, Bryan Washington explains in his Eat column for The New York Times Magazine this week. His subject: stew peas , a dish prized throughout Jamaica and its diaspora that, as Bryan wrote, offers a chance to allow life to carry you alongside it, less an orchestra than a gauzy jam band playing well after last call.
Its a humble meal: kidney beans, a pig tail or knuckle, garlic, scallions and a can of coconut milk cooked down together slowly, bound together by time. You could use beef in place of the pork, or no meat at all. At the end Bryan adds spinners flour dumplings that make the meal more than a side dish and then serves the finished stew over rice. Weekend joy: For more than two hours, the pot simmers until the peas have softened, bubbling their own low chatter while you fiddle with podcasts or text friends from the sofa.
So, stew! What a welcome to Fall. Beyond the Caribbean larder, you could turn to Roy Chois recipe for a California-ized version of Korean galbijjim, which he learned from his mom and I learned from him. You could make a tagine-style lamb stew. Or a spicy white bean stew with broccoli rabe.

Good morning. It can be hard, on these days filled with dark and terrible news, to imagine that cooking can do anything more than provide base sustenance. Youre making a chocolate sheet cake? Youre rolling out pasta? What is the point of that?
The point is to celebrate humanity even when others seek to destroy it, to find joy amid sadness and above all to show love, the emotion we need to embrace most of all when conflict soars. You might find it in a simple roast chicken, a plate of spaghetti and meatballs or a tureen of dal makkhani. Tonight, you could look for it in a bowl of youvarlakia avgolemono, lemony Greek meatball soup . Bring any of those to the table and see: In service we find relief.
As for what to cook for the rest of the week
