Disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes was sentenced to 11.25 years in prison, but will only serve roughly nine-and-a-half.
Have fun letting someone else raise your kids for you, Elizabeth!
I’ll bet $100 right now that she doesn’t serve 9 years.
How did her 2nd in command end up with a longer sentence?
It’s the US and he’s not as rich as her.
If she had more money she would’ve stayed out of jail.
He was repeat exec who arguably should have known better. He also was closer to the actual lab operations and the functional execution of fraudulent activities.
I’m not sure I buy it.
Could be that he was less of a sympathetic figure due to his ostentatious and flashy spending habits, and… she’s a woman.
She had a better lawyer?
How unfortunate. Check out this one:

awww widdle lizzy is getting bullied by those mean prosecutors
It seems particularly absurd considering her husband of 4 years, Billy Evans, comes from a wealthy family (hotel owners) and apparently has a successful tech career.
