But she could be pardoned by Trump...

Except he is 100% transactional. She has nothing to offer him really.

Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes' conviction upheld by US appeals court

A U.S. appeals court has upheld the conviction of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, who is serving a more than 11 years for defrauding investors.

From the Mercury News article:
Holmes’ lawyers did not immediately respond to questions about whether Holmes planned to appeal, or to seek a pardon from President Donald Trump.

She could ask the Ninth Circuit to re-hear the case in front of a larger panel of judges, or seek review by the U.S. Supreme Court. <snip>

The panel’s ruling upheld the $452 million Holmes, and her co-accused, former Theranos president Sunny Balwani, have been ordered to pay in restitution. It also upheld Balwani’s conviction on a dozen felony fraud counts, and his prison sentence of nearly 13 years.

An appeal by Holmes to the U.S. Supreme Court would represent a long-shot, statistically, as its justices only hear about 100 to 150 appeals per year of the more than 7,000 it is typically asked to review, according to the courts system.

But he may admire her for the ambitious con. I could see him freeing her and putting her in charge of the Office of Science and Technology. jmo

Uh no! The evidence already came out that she defrauded patients AND investors. Her device didn't work!!! False Cancer and miscarriage results.

Poor naive Elizabeth - used and abused by her mean, controlling boyfriend / COO / partner in crime. Blah, blah, blah...

Now, when she’s not busy reforming the entire criminal justice system, she’s still writing patents for her imaginary medical inventions. She should have been barred for life from being involved in anything even remotely related to healthcare.

She’ll always be a menace to society because she’ll never admit she did anything wrong. She’s a legend in her own evil, twisted mind.

She saw through Elizabeth Holmes. Now Stanford professor is star in Theranos saga.

“I think what people have liked is that I did not fall for her. She has been the burr under my saddle for years.”

It's paywalled for me, but I get the gist of it. Holmes couldn't use her sexual wiles and phony voice on a smart woman like this professor- who actually did evaluate her for the content of her ideas.

In February, she made a bid to get out of prison, which was shot down.

The San Jose Mercury News reports in a court filing this week, her attorneys are arguing that the judges were confused and "illogical" when hearing their evidence in February.

Holmes' team is asking for the judges to rehear her appeal case.

This is what I find most dangerous about her. She will never see or admit how awful the things she did were. Once out, she will be worse than ever IMO.

Can you say Narcissistic Sociopath? Only she uses phony medical technology to harm people rather than conventional weapons like guns and knives.

She’s lucky no one (that we know of) died from relying on her phony blood tests. If she hadn’t been shut down it was just a matter of time.

One was misdiagnosed with Cancer, another with a miscarriage. Traumatic enough.
