Watch: Anna 'Delvey' Sorokin Wants Another Chance at Becoming an American Socialite

Emell Adolphus READ TIME: 2 MIN.

Anna 'Delvey' Sorokin, the fake German heiress and fraudster at the center of Netflix's "Inventing Anna," wants another chance at her American Dream.

As reported by Daily Mail, Sorokin said she wants a "second chance" to right her wrongs after spending spending 18 months in ICE detention.

Sorokin, 31, is currently under house arrest at her East Village apartment in New York City, after she posted a $10,000 bond and was ruled not a danger to the public.

"I feel like I deserve a second chance, it was my mistake that I made, and I served my time and I feel like I should deserve a second opportunity," she said in a CNN interview on Tuesday. The interview included a look inside Sorokin's apartment.

About her crimes, the Russian-born Sorokin said, "I learned from my mistakes," but also admitted she took advantage of people.

For her crimes, Sorokin faces deportation to Germany after completing her criminal sentence in February 2021, which included convictions of grand larceny and thefts totaling $275,000. But after everything, Delvey believes in second chances and claims that she has been portrayed in an unfair way.

"I feel like if I were to leave and say, 'Oh whatever, I'm just going to move on and like move to Europe,' I would be like accepting the labels that they are trying to slap on me," she said.

Sorokin still sports an ankle monitor because she is not out of ICE custody yet. She is prohibited from using social media, and shared that she did not want to glamorize her crimes like what was portrayed on TV.

"They kind of created this idea of me, and I'm just being left to deal with it," she said. "I'm trying to not glamorize my crimes and not lead anybody to believe that's the way to get famous."

She added, "I was younger and I learned from my mistakes."'
