“20/20” reports on Anna Sorokin, known as the “Soho Grifter,” whose story fascinated the world as her cons deceiving New York’s elite unraveled. When Sorokin moved to New York City from Paris in 2013, she decided to be someone else entirely – Anna Delvey. The highest social circles accepted her, believing she was a German heiress worth millions until the facade came crashing down. “20/20” dives into Sorokin’s schemes, including how she pulled them off, her arrest and ultimate conviction of grand larceny and other charges. “20/20” contains ABC News senior national affairs correspondent Deborah Roberts’ interview with Sorokin following her release from prison. Sorokin opens up about her lavish lifestyle, time in prison, the movie deal she signed for her story and more. “20/20” features Roberts’ interview with Rachel Williams, who, after being deceived by Sorokin, worked with authorities on a sting operation that led to Sorokin’s arrest. The program also contains clips from Williams’ lavish vacation to Morocco with Sorokin, a trip that left Williams with a costly bill. “20/20” includes interviews with Todd Spodek, Sorokin’s attorney during the trial, and Audrey Thomas, Sorokin’s current attorney. Thomas discusses Sorokin’s release from prison in February after serving just under four years for her crimes, how Sorokin is currently in ICE custody, facing possible deportation, and Sorokin’s hopes for the future. “20/20” airs Friday, Oct. 1 (10:01-11:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC.
