In the United States, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes was sentenced 11 years in prison for defrauding.
Theranos was a startup that promised to revolutionize blood testing. Holmes was convicted in January on four counts of investor fraud and conspiracy while at the helm of Theranos. The verdict followed a four-month trial. Her downfall began in 2015 amid investigations from journalists and regulators over the medical company’s faulty product, which claimed to provide accurate information from tests using just a finger-prick of blood.
