Sorokin came to New York City in 2013 and tried to get a huge loan to set up a high-end members-only club in Manhattan while using the name Anna Delevy. Her release to home confinement happened on Friday, Oct. In one instance, prosecutors said she forged financial records in an application for a $22 million loan to fund a private arts club.
