A beautiful sociopath with great language skills. Pretty tough combo to resist.
CNBC has a show called American Greed, they ran a story on this entire mess.
Holmes came from a prominent Washington Family, according to friends of the family, even though they were very privileged it was never enough for the parents who wanted to be billionaire rich and privileged.
Their daughter was the one to make all that happen, she was star at everything she did, met up with her mentor who turned out to be her lover/partner who was significantly older than her.
Emails showed the two of them were frauds and scam artists.
She attracted a whose who of rich billionaire investors along with famous Washington Power Brokers.
She scammed people like Henry Kissinger, Rupert Murdoch, James Mattis, etc...
Don’t forget the turtleneck....
BTW, it’s important to note what DIDN’T happen.
She did NOT raise any money in Silicone Valley.
No one there bought her crap story. She was NOT a disruptive tech start up like we have come to know. She went outside Silicone Valley to people like Mattis, and the media, an they fueled her fraud....not the regulars
Can you provide some examples of her great language skills? I can’t find any.
Really? She spoke like a baritone freak and looks like Mark Zuckerberg with a wig and eye makeup, frankly.
Intentionally lowered voice and an obsession with the sametype of black clothes. For some reason that she got in her head all that would compel investors to believe her lies, her “fake it til you make it” attitude - it did for a while. When the ‘promise’ of her machine didn’t work she had the company secretly processing actual blood samples using conventional technology machines. Hers never really worked. She’s a criminal.
Not only that, she knew exactly how to play liberal “elites.”
