Disgraced Theranos boss Elizabeth Holmes returns to court in bid to avoid prison
Disgraced Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes has made what might be her final court appearance before beginning a 11-year prison sentence, unless a judge grants her request to remain free while her lawyers appeal against her conviction for masterminding a blood-testing hoax.
The 90-minute hearing came four months after Holmes’s last court hearing when District Judge Edward Davila sentenced her for duping investors in Theranos, a startup she founded 20 years ago and rode to fame and fortune on her promises of a revolutionary blood-testing technology.
