From college dropout to Silicone Valley unicorn to federal fraud defendant. The most staggering things about the Elizabeth Holmes case are how long this alleged fraud was perpetrated and how she sold the dream all the way to the White House. Hundreds of millions were invested into Theranos based on a dream and the Government alleges fraud. Because Jury selection is about to start it’s the perfect time to get up to speed on this case and what the prosecution faces and what the defense is likely to bring to the table.
