“Maybe she wasn’t a crook.”

Maybe.

Yes; I also was born a poor black child, but can I keep the stuff?

If she had good lawyers, she sold it least $50 million of her stock, which should have netted her after-tax at least $35 million, at least half of which she moved offshore to be out of reach of any creditors.

Yeah, but after that, her gig might end.

Went to bed a multi-billionaire and wakes up to having nothing.

You'd think that she would have a little something (cash, jewels, gold etc.) stashed away where the cops couldn't get at it.

I don’t think she was thinking of that. I don’t think she’s in a good place right now, with the collapse of her company.

However, some successful women end up having been crooks all along, just like some men are. It’s there that I do not see a difference between businessmen and businesswomen.

The problem is that their machines WEREN’T 91% accurate. I’ve read other stories where accuracies varied from 65% to 80%.

Further, I’ve also read where Theranos started into subcontracting their tests to an outside firm, not using their machines - this apparently is illegal.
