Anna Delvey responds after being accused of 'dumping' rabbits used in Prospect Park photoshoot
Anna Delvey, the convicted fraudster whose story inspired Netflix's Inventing Anna, is facing new accusations after animal rescuers claimed she abandoned rabbits used in a photoshoot at Prospect Park in NYC. According to a reddit user, on August 4, a rabbit named Parker was rescued by them from the park by and placed in foster care. Just three days later, a second abandoned rabbit was found in the same area. Both, rescuers allege, appear identical to the animals featured in images and pinned Instagram Stories posted by Delvey during a recent shoot. Rescuers say a third rabbit, matching another in her posts, remains loose in the park. They also claim Delvey was filmed 'trancing' one of the animals — a handling method discouraged by welfare experts — suggesting inexperience with rabbit care. Additional evidence cited includes a towel and a box seen in her Instagram content, reportedly matching items found at the park. The allegations have prompted calls for witnesses and further proof to hold Delvey accountable for alleged animal abandonment. The rescuer fostering the first two rabbits says Delvey has since threatened them with legal action. Responding to the backlash in the comments section of her posts, Delvey denies the allegations and claims that, " All the bunnies that were borrowed for this shoot are at home with their owners". Delvey, born Anna Sorokin, gained notoriety in New York's social scene by posing as a wealthy German heiress and defrauding hotels, banks, and acquaintances out of approximately $275,000. Arrested in 2017 and convicted in 2019 of grand larceny and theft of services, she served three years in prison. Since her 2022 release, she has remained under house arrest in Manhattan while pursuing media projects.

New York faces $10M lawsuit over killing of P'Nut the Squirrel and raccoon Fred during state raid
The State of New York may face a $10 million payout over the killing of P'Nut the Squirrel, an internet-famous pet, and his raccoon companion, Fred. Owners Mark Longo and Daniela Bittner allege that state investigators unlawfully seized and killed the animals during an October 30, 2024 raid on their Pine City home and animal sanctuary, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday in the New York Court of Claims. The New York Post reports that officers from the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and the Department of Health (DOH) carried out the operation, citing New York's ban on keeping squirrels and raccoons as pets. DEC officials claimed P'Nut bit an agent through thick leather gloves during the raid, prompting both animals to be decapitated for rabies testing. Tests later came back negative for rabies, but the couple says the state has not apologized or returned the remains. Court filings describe the killings as a 'senseless act of violence' and 'obscene demonstration of government abuse,' alleging the actions were unrelated to any public health risk. Longo and Bittner say they have suffered emotional trauma and financial losses, as P'Nut had gained a substantial online following through Instagram, OnlyFans, Cameos, and other monetized content. This lawsuit is separate from a June 27 filing in Chemung County Supreme Court, in which the couple sued the county, the City of Elmira, and 36 local and state officials, seeking damages to be determined at trial. Both the DEC and DOH have declined to comment on the ongoing litigation, the New York Post reports.
