Elizabeth Holmes To Face Sentencing In Fraud Case
source
She even played the baby card & lost
Bye, Bye, sweet/sour baby
I could see her getting 11 years for turning back ordometors or something. She's so selfish getting pregnant knowing you're going to prison, lucky kid.
Prison won’t fix anything. Just take all her money untill satisfied lol
She should have gone to jail tonight.
I'd love to see all of her campaign contributions and how many of those 100 letter writers were recipients
Bruhh they should've just gave her 5 years 11 years is a bit to much
She should do time just for her annoying fake voice
HOLMES IS NOT AND NEVER WAS IN ANY WAY BRILLIANT — SHE IS A CONVICTED CRIMINAL A FELON AND A DANGEROUS THREAT HARM TO THE PEOPLE SHE DUPED WITH BAD MEDICAL TESTS
11 years lol
How much did she give you Mr. Booker, to buy that letter
IF SHE WAS " BLACK" ..HOW MUCH TIME WOULD SHE GET??
How much of that will actually be 'spent' in jail?
UPDATE: Elizabeth Holmes was just sentenced to 135 months in prison (11 years and 3 months). This happened ~20 minutes ago or so, a bit after 5pm ET.
But….did Booker lose millions or suffer false medical diagnoses as hundreds of other folks did, because of her lies?? NO…he did not.
WTF: Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes reportedly told a Walgreens consultant that “They don’t put pretty people like me in jail,” according to a government filing ahead of the sentencing hearing Friday.
Let me guess… 3 years in club fed with Gislain Maxwell 🏝
Elizabeth's father was an executive at Enron, so she's had great role models for ripping investors. 😀😀😀If she get's house arrest she'll be living with her two kids and husband in their $10M mansion on their thousand acre estate.
The photos used to ask for leniency showed a mother consistently distant or reluctant to hold her own child. Everything is a manipulation for her, even her own children.
First, it blows my mind that there was an equally awful and disgusting person just like her to actually marry her and have children with her. This woman needs to be in jail. That is where is belongs and I really hope she won't get away with it just because she is a white, blond American woman and NOT pretty as they called her. Nothing pretty there. Those eyes and her face is like a lunatic.
