She’s a psychopath. That’s hardly a get-out-of-jail card.

This is the company “Mangy Dog” Mattis was associated with.

It was a total sham.

There’s a documentary on Netflix.

There is a book”Bad Blood”.I just read it.Evil Lady.Mad Dog became a top gun there and some people were drawn into investing because of his name.She claimed to be able to get blood results in the field with wounded soldiers at war with a small machine.His presence on her board kind of sealed the deal it was true.It was all lies.

I’m more interested in James Mattis’ role in this mega fraud. He vouched for Holmes again and again in speeches and conference and was paid handsomely for it.

Grist for a new “Law & Order’episode by Dick Wolf.

I would imagine that when you rip people off off millions of dollars it would make one edgy.

Many people who accomplish big things are bipolar. Visions of grandeur, and feelings that you can accomplish big dreams help drive some people to achievement them. So she’ll claim that she was defrauded by her own mind. She’s a victim too! Normally guilt without responsibility does not play well in court. But ... California.

I don’t trust government prosecutors, but doubt she would be going for a mental defense — or have even been charged — if there were not hard evidence of criminal intent. Guess we’ll see if she doesn’t plea.

“Disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes plans an insanity defense because she was suffering from a ‘mental disease’ when she ‘defrauded investors out of millions with her fake blood testing technology’”

oh, it’s clear she definitely suffers from a mental disease: it’s called sociopathy ... but sociopathy doesn’t excuse her crimes, but instead simply explains them ...
