Fake German heiress Anna Sorokin conned her way into Manhattan society. Posing as Anna Delvey, a German heiress, she swindled banks, hotels, and friends out of more than $200,000. She forged checks to get money from banks and charmed people into paying for extravagant meals and travel. Sorokin was convicted on a handful of grand larceny and theft of services charges. After serving her time, the 31-year-old was released from prison and is now fighting against deportation, but once again, Sorokin has managed to land on her feet. First, she landed a deal with Netflix for the rights to her life story, then began selling her artwork, and then Sorokin said her home confinement and social media ban are “more restrictive” than jail. Sorokin is back in the headlines, saying the weight she gained in prison is "embarrassing." Delvey tells Page Six the food in prison is the worst. Delvey's ankle monitor radius had been extended now to 75 miles, which allows her roaming room for the long series of beauty treatments she's indulging in, paid for by her income from Dancing With The Stars.  Joining Nancy Grace today: Wendy Patrick: Trial Attorney & Author of “Red Flags” Jeff Cortese: Former FBI Supervisory Special Agent Dr. William July: Psychologist John Lemley: CrimeOnline Investigative Reporter See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Also, Combs’ last-ditch efforts for a full acquittal or new trial are denied just hours before sentencing. Judge Subramanian writes in his decision the prosecution proved their case "so well, that alone" is enough to reject Combs’ motion, but he goes on to argue “spillover bias” does not apply, as the jury did not convict Combs on the most applicable charges.  Despite initially denying Combs’ request to wear ‘street clothes’ for his sentencing, Judge Subramanian ultimately approves a button-down, sweater, pants, and dress shoes for Combs. Subramanian required a more structured argument and that his attorneys pare down his wardrobe options before granting the request.
