Her Plea

Using her talents, she attempted to bargain her way out of her full crimes. She offered a plea deal to the judge of 3 years or less of imprisonment. The judge didn’t buy it and rejected her plea. The counteroffer from the judge was 3-9 years, though Anna boldly rejected the deal, choosing to go to trial instead.

The judge of this case, Justice Diane Kiesel, remarked that Anna clearly showed no remorse for her atrocities. She definitely didn’t feel that less than 3 years would be fair to all of the people she had basically stolen from and the crimes that she had committed. In 2019, she was finally convicted and sentenced to up to 12 years behind bars.
