A woman who pretended to be a wealthy heiress to pay for a lavish lifestyle has been released from prison.

Anna Sorokin was let out on parole yesterday in New York.

Sorokin was found guilty in 2019 of grand larceny and other charges accusing her of tricking people into believing she was an heiress with a fortune of about $67 million.

Prosecutors say Sorokin would forge financial records to apply for loans.
