Watched a show about her on tv last night.
Amazing how a young split tail with only 2 semesters of college scammed people out of millions of dollars.

A young female.
Nobody could call out her bullshite.

Any Chemist, biologist, etc could have called bullshite.
But, also would risk career.

Total group think.
Just like covid doomsday ppl.

John Ioannidis from Stanford called her bullshite.

LINK

He's also a big Covid "Truther" as he knows it's bullshite.

If it wasn't the HBO documentary you need to check that out too. it's scathing. so many layers to that story. her intentional deep voice and slew of tony robbin like lines will make you want to jump off a building

This would be a big benefit for me but you’d like to see stuff like this for normal sized guys also.

Watched documentary a while back. She had some balls to hold all that together and play it off as long as she did.

Even after losing all her money she married some rich guy.

If she doesn't go to prison she will be set.

I found it pretty interesting last night. Had never heard of her or Theranos. I will be paying attention when her trial starts in Aug.

If you're interested in the subject you should read Bad Blood. She was ruthless.

Not just that. I watch the whole 2 hr program last night and it seems that people(powerful and rich) were in love with the idea of having part of something groundbreaking created by a young charming woman. I think they wanted it to happened to bad that they forgot to be critical and suspicious.

There is a huge push in Silicone Valley for someone other than a straight white male to succeed in the Tech world. Facts or competencies be damned. Here you have a perfect example of how this can go wrong.

She had so many rich and powerful on her board of directors that everyone assumed she was legit.
