GUILTY CA - Elizabeth Holmes (Theranos) Wire Fraud Thread (2003 - 2018) #3

The thing that she was pushing- a bunch of blood tests all at once- is not completely insane. They have more blood tests for cancers and other conditions all the time and the tests are more sensitive and with miniaturization and AI, not completely inconceivable that it could be but she did no product development, no wet chemistry, no trials or computerization..... she did not do the work.

It was all hocus-pocus with other machines behind the scenes. It was a con job.

Well it IS Club Fed. Ghislane Maxwell got access to puppies there, so nothing would surprise me.

Nope. Can't.

Others do it for her, she tells them what to say.

Elizabeth Holmes is Bryan Johnson’s newest reply-guy on X

Holmes’s X account is active, but prison rules forbid direct social media posting.

“Mostly my words, posted by others.”

And not every word is her word. Only most of what she tells a person is what they post. Obviously her posters also add in their own words.

Hope she serves every minute! She deserves more for defrauding Cancer patients and pregnant women with false results. Innocent my foot!

I hope so also and will add that I don't feel she got enough time. This wasn't just a simple fraud case. She hurt people with those false results - as you said. And she has zero remorse for any of it. Not to mention that she and her husband are already working on the next big scam.

The ego on this entitled criminal is massive. She needs to shut up and do her time. Hopefully, every minute of her sentence.

Disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes will serve just over 10 years behind bars after a federal judge trimmed her prison sentence by a year — while stressing her massive fraud still warrants serious punishment.

US District Judge Edward Davila on Thursday took 12 months off of her original sentence of 11 years and three months due to changes to federal guidelines for first-time, non-violent offenders.

Disgraced Theranos fraudster Elizabeth Holmes just caught a break in court — and prosecutors aren’t happy

Earlier this year, Holmes appealed to President Trump for an early release from prison — a full six years before she is eligible for parole.

"Non-violent". Like theft is just "whatever".
