She/they were also extremely aggressive and threatening regarding questions, labeling people with legit questions as haters, misogynists or using legal threats of questionable merit with employees and others. Right before the fraud broke, one reporter.(might be staff, I forgot) remembers going to what they thought was a normal, fluff interview with a couple questions, only to be met by 5 lawyers, a very hostile “why are you here?” attitude, people placing their phones or other recording devices it on the table in front of them in a “evidence so we can sue you later” way (the person pulled out their own phone and also recorded, which I thought was funny),etc. As with Enron, red flag when higher ups start seeing questions as a threat or over-react to them.

You need to understand how guilt in the judicial system works - NO ONE is found "innocent" - you are found "not guilty" and there's a HUGE difference there. One says you did NOT do what you are accused of, the other says we don't have enough to prove you ARE guilty, but that does NOT mean you are innocent.

I believe the judge has determined that poor due diligence by investors is not a defense to fraud. In other words, if you lie to someone and defraud them, it is not a defense to say “You were stupid and didn’t catch me lying.” The defense seems to be hoping for a mistrial or pure sympathy play ending in jury nullification I.e. the jury just disregards the law. Hope she does serious jail time. Could save her son from a childhood with a malignant narcissist.

Her $4.5 billion "fortune" was Theranos stock. She would have had to sell it. But it wasn't a publicly listed company, so she couldn't just dump shares in the stock market. The amount she gathered in from private investors was almost $1 billion. But absconding with the cash would have been impossible. She needed it to maintain the fiction (renting the facilities, keeping 700 people on staff, paying David Boies' legal bills, private aircraft, personal bodyguards, et al.).

Elizabeth Holmes is lucky she’s not black, otherwise her charges would be a whole lot more serious. In a court case with no murder involved (only patients getting sicker or dying as a result of a faulty Theranos device), Elizabeth is not going to see more than 3 years. She’ll get parole and never be allowed to be a corporate executive again. That’s about it.

[@Mel_can_cook]

Exactly 💯

[@makatogonzo]

Even if she gets 20 years, she is already ahead of most people in 20 year earnings. She has already got a hotel heir and future book deals.

If this was any other person they would have been doing time since the beginning.

[@huajie666liu8]

What is the result?

[@lothean2099]

All I know after watching this vid. Our txt messages to people are being saved. Now thats something to think about.

[@anytimeanywhere3646]

This will not go anywhere. She will not spend a single day in jail.

[@kylielogan8771]

I guess Holmes is not doing her crazy stare in the court room. Possibly her voice is higher pitched due to pregnancy hormones too?!

[@lss74]

Prison! NOW!!!

[@trenauldo]

Just goes to show… Don’t invest in a story. Invest in numbers and results.

[@TheSuperPsychoKiller]

Lock Her Up

[@jamessullivan4391]

Like a true Bene Gesserit, when she uses "The Voice," she will get off scott free.

[@lovelylu100]

Abusive relationship? Please...🙄

[@thejordankeyes]

Why does she look just like Mark Zuckerberg in makeup. Creepy

[@sutats]

Like most corporate crimes, nobody's going to jail.

[@jasonnorthrup3579]

It's crazy how you can promise a fraudulent product, get the entire industry behind it as well as politicians just to find out its a fraud. Hopefully nothing else is going on like this as we speak.

[@David-ej1ps]

Hehehe … Cough cough…

[@danrothman6129]

Elizabeth should also receive the punishment of having her picture under the term for snake oil salesman.

[@graggdavison3186]

NICE VIDEO !!! Very engaging from the beginning to the END.Nevertheless business and investment are the best way to make money irrespective of the pandemic 😷

If you’re a KZbinr you’ll be earning £7,500 worth of bitcoin weekly directly into your bitcoin wallet.

[@dollarjenny6397]

It all depends on your start up plan

[@barbaraluigi920]

Was about trading bitcoin but got discouraged by the fluctuations in price

[@hildaelisabetta5375]

Yeah,my first investment with Mr Harry Mark earned me profit over $23,500 and ever since then he has been delivering 💯

[@poonamnaik3491]

he’s really hardworking with an S9antminer brokerage machine he traded my $4,100 and earned me $13,700

[@yecto1332]

I still want to hear her real voice Hoping she will reveal when she is in jail

[@maxpeck1338]

Incredibly interesting case. Looking forward to the verdict. And thank you god for giving us a trail that is not related to a race and/or murder. -Max

[@OrganicStuff1]

What about Trevor Milton

[@eddiecarrasco878]

Media clout Homes was trying to build for investors just shows what is wrong with Silicon Valley culture.

[@aoojj7180]

good

[@mountainman6172]

Blonde and blue eyed woman from incredibly affluent background going to jail? hahahahaha!!

[@azaz911c]

Abusive relationship defence. I don't think that will work.

[@eagleeye2300]

She won't take the stand herself, no way. First of all she'd have to use the fake deep voice which would almost immediately show what a phoney she is. Second of all, her cover is blown and she won't be able to mambo away from questions while being grilled by a lawyer who won't be mesmerized. They are as smart or smarter than she is.

[@posthocprior]

The evidence against her is overwhelming. Why did she plea not-guilty?

[@Blackheathenly]

Because she's a narcissist.

[@Tokyo_Views]

Looks good and seems to be doing alright for a world class scammer

[@kdoeone]

She looks happy

[@neilknightley4703]

lol she really blamed that indian dude for coersion..but didnt she show the world that shes the example of strong women ? LoL . when things go wrong its the dudes fault and she is always the victim

[@Gumbocinno]

She even had a baby to garner sympathy. I think the kid will be better off with just the father on this one.

[@sirhoopalot1]

Rich white people don't go to jail.

[@JCJW101]

Jeffrey Epstein went to jail and he was almost a billionaire.

[@star2be83]

That voice just grates on you
