I have no sympathy for her. The lies she told and the people she hurt, she should have been sentenced to 50 years.

She had the second child to garner sympathy trying to get house arrest. She is despicable and deserves everything she received.

No. This is not true. It’s a physical limit thing. The small amount of blood drawn by Holmes(a finger pick) is not large enough to actually capture what is in the blood. She was just making things up.

There are already arrays that look for multiple different genetic anomalies from single sample for cancer patients. I m guessing that with time the technical limits that currently have technicians running so many basic tests different machines under different conditions will be reducible to arrays on much smaller surfaces, or test results that can be extrapolated from much smaller starting samples.

I guarantee you a man will patent the technology, run with it, and make billions. The idea is valid. The technology just needs to get there. She said herself that she just needed be more patient for the technology to catch up and that that was her error.

This doesn’t change her crime.

She stole, she hurt people and then tried to play the damsel who was manipulated by the big bad man. If you think stealing millions and millions of dollars isn’t a big deal then you don’t really understand our economic system.

It's such a silly thing to invest so much in. Nobody likes getting blood drawn. I used to have to lie down to have blood tests. Then I dealt with infertility and had to have blood drawn hundreds of times in a handful of years. I just dealt with it. Of all the things that we can invest time, intelligence, money and expertise in, this seems like such a waste.

I'm slowly learning how to not judge these criminals, which was very hard after spending the past few years being robbed, abused and scammed. Been working on giving it to God, even though the injuries done to me are irreversible.

I'll never have compassion for a woman like Elizabeth Holmes but I think I judge her less now than I would've 6 months ago.

Beautifully said. I applaud your courage and I'm so sorry you dealt with criminals like Holmes.

You can't patent an idea.

I said parent the technology, not the idea. The idea has already been had.

If a man invents and is able to patent the technology, good for him! Unfortunately, Holmes was unable to produce this technology so she instead lied to investors, the SEC and patients who relied on the technology she claimed to have but didn’t.

She was a huge bully who used her power to ruin or try to ruin some of her whistleblowing employees lives, so intensely one former employee took his life, she lied lied lied and stole money from idiot rich people she charmed with her deep voice, Steve Jobs but attractive female cosplay. I feel terrible for her being separated from her children and for her kids who will grow up without their mother. That being said I think she deserved that sentence if not more time.

All of this.

We can have the humanity to not take glee in another's comeuppance, while also honestly saying that they fu--ing deserve it.

No! Now she's just "Liz," just a regular "mom." This has all been a big misunderstanding!

Those kids will be better off not having a sociopath parent in their lives during their formative years. Ask me how I know.

I don’t feel terribly for her or her children. This is the best for everyone.

Formative years? They'll have a new mommy soon enough and will have no memories of her by the time she gets out.
