    I hope the foreperson announced the verdict in an obviously fake deep voice.

    I'm listening to this podcast right now and I read the book.  Given this is how I make a living it is really hitting home to me.   CSB warning: Around 2014 Theranos sent a couple of representativ

She won’t be sentenced until September. Elizabeth Holmes will have a hot girl summer.

Yeah none of the millions(?) of men and women currently in confinement have had young children that it pained them to leave behind. At least her kid won’t go hungry from a lack of financial resources due to the incarceration.

Not psychotic, calculated. She did it for the optics.

I think she probably is a psychopath, and it was calculated for the optics with the prosecution/jury, and locking in an anchor baby with generational wealth before she’s bankrupt and a business world pariah.

Saw this article about her being an imprisoned  mother of a young child.  https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2022/01/14/as-a-mother-in-prison-elizabeth-holmes-faces-an-agonizing-separation-from-son/

I had kind of forgotten/ignored her decisions to a) get married and b) have a child while under federal indictment.

Sympathy Fuck Trophy to tug the jury's heartstrings in hopes for a clean sheet Not Guilty verdict.  

Lawyer: Liz, did you know that mothers get more lenient sentences and mothers of babies get even more lenient sentences?  Also, non sequitur, our case isn’t looking too great.

Calculated - Yes.....possibly calculating that she'll have uninterrupted sleep while someone else deal with colic and shiity diapers.

A lying, fraudulent hack abusing the court system to delay an impending punishment... Sounds vaguely familiar...

It’s amazing how rich people can just delay going to jail with unlimited lawyers,

 

Really odd development.  A witness for the prosecution reached out to Holmes’ team to recant some of his testimony. So he perjured himself? I’m sure the government will be very kind and understanding in this matter. 

Just STFU and let the bitch do 5 years in a white collar facility in Martha’s Vineyard. Instead the witness will probably be doing 5 years in San Quentin.

I looked and it wasn't specifically to recant testimony.  It was something less than that.  Still, a bizarre development.

Sentenced to 11.25 years followed by 3 years of supervised release. (Prosecution asked for 15 years from the report I heard)

One day she can all her kids that they were born to help her get out of jail. And it didn’t work.

It's federal.  They usually do at least 80 percent of their sentence.  I bet she gets a pardon from President Biden on his way out.  She still has a lot of political ammo.

What kind of mind tries to have 2 children back to back during a trial where you know you could be behind bars for 15 years. I didn't know she was pregnant again. Sickening. Is that what pure selfishness looks like?

She ain’t getting a pardon. She committed massive fraud. She put peoples lives at risk. She wasn’t wrongfully convicted.

Maybe its a pretty sick attempt to get a lightened sentence

You can earn up to 54 days a year off a sentence by avoiding discipline.  The First Step Act added to that some by earning time off through taking classes.

Yeah.  It's right around 20 percent.  My cousin got caught up in a whole triad weed grow house operation before the weed thing relaxed and did some fed time.  Also know now to say nothing over the phone.  That RICO and conspiracy stuff is pretty damn easy to get a conviction

She probably won't go to jail for another 3-4 years.  She doesn't have to report to jail until April.  In the mean time her lawyers are going to appeal and from they are saying she is going to be allowed to be free until the appeals process goes through.  Must be nice to be rich.

As long as they leak EH nudes and lesbian sex orgy photos---I'm ok with the sentence.  I'll allow it.

Probably true.  If you don't get pretrial detention, you usually are free on appeal..

How much money she still got?  Asking for a friend.

No really, she was the world's youngest female billionaire or some such.  But it was all tied up in Theranos, right, or was it?  I'm sure the government attached all her assets, right?  How does any of this work?  Splain it to me like I'm 5.

She doesn't have any Theranos money left.  She cucked some rich ass hotel dude and has one kid with him with another on the way.  She met this dumbass after the the whole fraud fiasco.

People are sickly attracted to deranged. Similar to young, good looking chicks who write and marry serial killers in prison.

The move by the ultra wealthy has been to take out loans using their stocks as collateral. They can capitalize their stocks, but retain ownership. 

It's a hell of a thing if your stock is on the rise and interest rates are low. And it contributes to inflation, hooray!

He’s not insane, just weak and manipulable. Holmes is a psychopath (literally). Psychopaths can be incredibly attentive and can make their targets “feel like the only person in the world”. I’m sure she was sucking his dick / turning tricks / fawning all over him and being attentive to every little detail like her life depended on it; because it kind of does and she has no soul or moral compass.

It autocorrected my spelling to that; doesn’t look correct to me either.

Maybe he just likes her Barry White voice whispering in his ear while she NowThis' him?
