The "Anna who went to jail" you're likely referring to is Anna Sorokin, also known as Anna Delvey, a Russian-born con artist famous for posing as a wealthy German heiress in New York City, defrauding banks, hotels, and individuals out of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

After serving almost four years, including time in the notorious Rikers Island jail, she was released in February 2021, and was expected to leave the US. But she didn't go.
On April 25, 2019, Anna was found guilty of grand larceny, second-degree larceny, theft of services, and received four to 12 years imprisonment, a $24,000 fine, and $199,000 restitution (Gibson, 2022). This is not the first con artist to become nationally and internationally infamous.

Sorokin said in an interview with New York Magazine she keeps in touch with Neff Davis, her close friend (played by Alexis Floyd in the show), and Kacy Duke, her former personal trainer (played by Laverne Cox).
