Theranos' Death Rattle

Holmes is said to have immediately defrauded the biggest, toughest inmate she could find in an effort to gain the respect of her fellow prisoners. “You’re getting in on the ground floor of a venture that will revolutionize the prison industry,” Holmes said as she walked up to the facility’s most feared convict and swindled her out of all her money, reportedly hoping to send a clear message that she was “nobody’s bitch.”

Holmes’ biggest mistake was ripping off the wrong people. They were well connected and not going to let her off the hook.

In contrast, some members of the Sackler family led the effort to create addicts and many deaths. Not to mention crime increases from their addict in order to buy more from the Sacklers. Their punishment was zero jail time and to give half of their billions back. The worst punishment they received is from the public in that their name is now trash. The govt and Justice effectively did nothing to them.

I actually think if the WSJ articles hadn't broke the story that the company would have likely folded and nothing happened. Too many companies claim being a startup for not complying with regulation.
