Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes has been convicted of defrauding investors after a months-long landmark trial in California.
Prosecutors said Holmes knowingly lied about technology she said could detect diseases with a few drops of blood.
Jurors found Holmes guilty of conspiracy to commit fraud against investors and three charges of wire fraud.
She denied the charges, which carry a maximum prison term of 20 years each. More

FJB”
…or the island Wonder Woman came from…
She is one creepy skank.
“She denied the charges, which carry a maximum prison term of 20 years each.” Denying a charge gets you 20 years? Dang, I wonder what admitting to the charge gets you.
Probation at best…..
She sure managed to fleece some supposedly smart people. Oh, well, NEXT!
She’s living proof that our country is dominated by grifters and morons, and the morons, for the most part, are wasting other people’s money.
Some to be someone’s prison bitch.
Steal from a retail/mom and pop store = slap on the wrist
Steal from rich, connected people = Life Sentence.
Elizabeth Holmes and the story of Theranos has fascinated me from about the time that the wheels started to come off.
Back then I read a couple of articles about how George Shulz, Sam Nunn, George Mattis, Henry Kissinger on Theranos’ board.
Here’s the rest of dumb bastards who took the bait, and/or profited by the big run-up of the $9,000,000,000.00 valuation of company:
