Elizabeth Holmes, the former CEO of Theranos convicted of defrauding investors, is seeking to delay the start of her 11-year prison sentence because she has 'two very young children' to be with.

Elizabeth Holmes, the former CEO of Theranos convicted of defrauding investors, is seeking to delay the start of her 11-year prison sentence because she has “two very young children” to be with. The court filing last week represents the first public acknowledgment that Holmes gave has given birth to her second child. Holmes was pregnant during her November 2022 sentencing.

The sentence also includes a fine of $400, or $100 for each count of fraud. Restitution will be set at a later date. Holmes was ordered to turn herself into custody on April 27, 2023 and is appealing her conviction. A hearing has been scheduled for March 17. Holmes started Theranos in 2003 at the age of 19 and soon thereafter dropped out of Stanford University to pursue the company full-time.

The rich can do what they like.

Look how white privilege speaks…lol. The fact that she even thinks she can negotiate

Ahhh privileged

😂

Tough shit. Get your ass to prison.

She should not have special treatment.

tell it to all the young black and poor white moms who had their babies removed from them while having to deliver them in jail. So sick of the US 'justice' system.

Put them up for adoption and jail the crook

You do the crime you do the time simple.

What are women complaining about they have a good in America?

She is a true capitalist.

And trust me she probably popped out those kids for exactly this reason to get sympathy. They will probably thrive without this soulless person and the cancer victims she put at risk and perhaps death. Let her rot!!!

White privilege alive and well in America!!!! and let's not forget corporate greed, straight up lying, stealing. Her children are stage props, she is psychopath, living in a virtual world. GeorgeFloyd suspected of using a fake $20, she stole billions!

Hope she has a good family support plan.

Must be nice to have money. Wish all mothers had the privilege to push off prison time because they have young children at home.

Fuck they’re feelings

Those poor kids

Umm no.

These kinds of people ruin other people's lives and think they can get away with it.

Why doesn’t this surprise me.

Didn't think of her children when she was committing the crime now did she.

Something she should’ve thought about before she decided to break the law

No, maybe she’s planning to born the third one She cares what? She’s using babies to do her moral robbery and one more defrauds. But after all Americans and people love to be robbed . You can say yes. I, say nothing. I may suggest at most 2-3 years

aw, Lizzie, better get it over with now

Well well well, if it isn’t the result of your own actions.

The audacity is just 🤦🏽‍♀️

Lol Rot in jail you bjtch!! You have ruined and destroyed so many lives including their childrens future for stealing their money.

No. So many other MORE deserving women have had their babies snatched away from them and are thrown in prison. You are not special. You are not clever. I hope the judge sees through these shenanigans.

Oh does she? I’m sure none the inmates today have any kids. Privileged Karen

She’s a piece of friggin work!

Good argument. She said have just gone for the, 'I will come to prison when I have time' defense.

how about Sam, Dokwon and other scammers? For God sake she has kids

She is a mother and no one can detain her.

Should have thought of that before you started defrauding people.

Tough, she committed a crime, now do the time.

Nope time for prison or are the weak liberals going to allow this

Lock 👏 her 👏 up 👏 The nerve!

Why didnt she think about her children prior to committing the crime.

I am really sorry for the kids but if you lied you should pay. It’s a pity that those kids have such an irresponsible mother.

Her lawyer:

Go directly to jail

BeSideS mK 10:9, chiLdRen R Joined to PaRentS. couLd they RatheR ReSide on a miLitaRy BaSe?

Or … does she? Hmmm.

You reap what you sew. No one else’s family situation is considered. Justice used to be blind. Hope the judge is balanced.

Put the bimbo in jail where she belongs

Uh, NO! She's a narcissistic schemer who's using those babies to avoid accountability.

Nope. Send the kids into the foster system and send her off to prison.

Ms. Holmes is feeling like anything can happen if she can stay out until she has the baby. Then she can say, 'Judge I need to raise my baby until he is about 10 yo.'

U$A

I didn't think you could plead the belly anymore. We should send her to jail faster so she misses less of theor childhoods

Wow. After all, justice is not equal for all.

This is the oldest game in the prison Playbook delay delay delay you did the crime now go do the time

ya thats too bad

Yeah if I ever get locked up they going to delay me getting locked up because of other issues oh that's right I'm a black man no way they going to do that for me

Lol 😆

The idea, that a woman overly enjoying the companionship of a patron; is that violent? No, and so not all sexual “crimes” are violent. Sodomy in LA, effin’ criminal. So don’t be gay, and you good. No crimetia days then!

Who gives a shit what she wants. That’s not the point

Prison for anyone is not a good aspect. Violent crime is not acceptable. As a culture we have to balance low level offenses; versus violent crime. Yes; sexual crime should almost always be labeled as such; with context.

Get out! What does that matter? She put herself in this !

That’s not how it works.

Go to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200. 11 yrs woman, get in there

Kids will be better off without her influence.

I mean, some of those investors were billionaires (so who cares), but this should set a precedent for others convicted under the same circumstances. But I gather it won’t, because most people won’t rise up against this kind of nepotism.

Should’ve thought of that before you lied, cheated and stole. No sympathy.

She knows how to work the system yet all the people who lost money are serving a sentence every day

Maybe think of that before you crime?

Delaying the start of her prison sentence gives her more time to have more babies.

She should have thought of that before committing the crime. Lots of convicted inmates leave their kids behind when doing time. What’s so special with her situation? Maybe Money?

She just going to keep having kids to avoid serving time

I’m wondering if her privilege will ever run out

Hear you go again with your nonsense. You would never complain about Alvarez when she was States Attorney. She has a Latin sir name that's why. Dude chill in Little Village.

Should have thought of that before commiting the crime...

THE PRIVILEGE OF EVEN THE THOUGHT !! wheretheydothatat

Is that why she bought a one way ticket to mexico?

Lock her UP!

How many pregnant women and single women go to jail every day with not any chance to argue this BS Two justice systems

Here comes baby 3.

We all need to be scamming so much more

This lady needs to stop with her damn games. Prison is good enough for minorities and poor people who break the law, so guess what, it’s good enough for you too.

Hell no! If that happens then every woman with young children better be let out to raise their children!!!

Feel sorry for the kids, not her

She didn't think about her small children when she was committing the crime Girl Bye🖐🏾

THE ENTITLEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a thought, maybe the kids will grow up with a better moral compass if they don't have the influence of a swindler in their daily lives 🤔

She can afford a nanny, she stole a lot of money

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time. Don't do it!

Only if all other criminals, female and male, rich and poor, can use the same excuse.

Hate to say it, but the kids don’t really need her influence soooo…. 🥹

👎🏻

Well then don’t commit crimes would have to look again but pretty sure she was already under investigation before she had the kids and has been using pregnancy and births to cause delays in the court proceedings. She’s manipulating the system, effectively as it turns out.

Ahhh the old pirate trick of 'pleading the belly'. Clever.

Another punk move

is her voice still low?

Where they Daddy at? I’m sure he can take car of them

Not she tryna use children to get out of her prison sentence. If you can do the crime do the time

And the people she defrauded had none? Send her away.

Holmes should not be allowed to be given any sympathy nor concessions by the government.

Using children to pay for her atrocious crimes, do the time.

How convenient.

So all those she defrauded are to let her pick when she will serve her sentences ? And we wonder why crime continues to skyrocket .

nobody told you to get pregnant as an escape clause

She was convicted by the courts. Lock her butt up! Society doesn't care when we lock up brown and black women so just because she's white and privileged shouldn't matter. She's a convict so put her in prison

BS Lock her up

She got pregnant on purpose just for this reason

This is the definition of privilege. That's not how the prison system works, not gonna murder someone and hold my sentence until I've hit 80 and had a good life.

🤡🤡🤡

Awwww booooo Hooooo ddtciycdtt

What in the white privilege, lock her up!

She wasn't thinking about them too much when she BROKE THE LAW and cheated everyone that she could? The nerve. LOCK. HER. UP!!!!!

Lock her up! Now

send her to jail!!

So very sorry not sorry! A lot of women in prison with children what make her special?

Ya that’s not how it works if you are a criminal

Lock her up!

She should have thought of that before she was indicted and thought it would be a good idea to get knocked up twice after the indictment. Treat her like any other woman in jail.

You have to be coloured, trans or a terrorist to get away with childcare being an option.

Lmfao.

Using babies as pawns in her sick games…vile woman 🤢🤮

Maybe she should have waited to do her criming until they were older.

Delay until they are on their own? Like when they are 30ish?

2 children she decided to have after knowing she would end up in prison.

Nope they don't do it for any other pregnant women who just gave birth so no you aren't soecial

She should have thought about her children before she started to steal from others, she deserves no pity

No no no !!

TFB

Put the child up for adoption and throw the book at her

If she was black BLM would be protesting her innocence, and she would have a statue built right next to the other criminal George crack head Floyd

Put her in jail. Her husband's family is rich and the children will lack for nothing whether she is there or not.

You got that right ! It’s time to send her to the gray bar hotel 😁

Yup

She was tried and convicted. Let her begin her sentence and file her appeals from prison.

The audacity.

No - she doesn't get to delay justice. Lock her up.

Um, no

Well, is she woke? If she is woke then of course let her stay home. Duh.

Excuse me … this isn’t a Dunkin’ donuts drive through

Yeah… No

Umm 🤔

She didn't think about her children when she was committing a crime, did she. SMH.

Now she has kids, she is caring. Oh please. Off to Jail .

Women give birth in prison, but she needs to be out to babysit…🤨

*extremely loud buzzer sounds*

Probably not a good idea to start a family when you’re looking at jail time in the first place. Of course it seemed pretty obvious it was a ploy for sympathy the whole time. Sorry you can’t get busted for breaking the law and then try and get out of it by getting pregnant.

No child deserves a parent in prison. But you can add them to the list of people whose lives were altered or ruined by their mother. It is no small thing that this woman should spend every day in prison thinking how she victimized so many including her own kids.

Why didn’t she go right to jail after she was found guilty? Isn’t that what normally happens?

That’s never stopped any other woman from going to prison. There are thousands of mothers in prison right now.

Fathers in prison are like metoo

Audacity

Sorry honey no one above the law.

Too bad- prison don’t wait for anyone

EAT THE RICH

NO

Maybe she should have thought about the fact that she has kids before she committed crimes.

Lock her up!

Eventually those kids will learn why they were born. Not love but as PAWNS

Ahh 😱

Really just do your time

Tell that to the women that are in prison that are pregnant. Don’t care, honey.

Daycare in prison?

Should have gotten pregnant after committing crimes you're going to court for. Seems she did this on purpose! Hopefully, she still gets sentenced and imprisoned & the judge see through this stunt

There’s a lot of criminals in our jail system with children. Have no mercy for her.

Nope. That’s not a thing.

🎻

She’s just going to continue to have kids to try to stay out of prison. I feel sorry for the kids!

Elizabeth Holmes is obviously a brilliant and charismatic person. Otherwise, she could not have defrauded rich and educated folks. I hope she reinvents herself and applies her awesome abilities in some organization that will accept her. I wish the best for her and her children.

Did she use her real voice or her deep voice?

This is the white person defense…..”but I’m blonde…”

Tough luck shouldn't have broken the law

white privilege. No woman! Rip you from your kids too!!!!

Wasn't she convicted? Tell that to the countless mothers in prison right now away from their children

waaa, waaa, so do most the prison population!

They can visit her twice a week..in crowbar hotel

People still allowing her to practice fraud

Maybe, if you're rich enough, you too can buy your way out of jail. How many poor people go directly to jail without passing go or collecting $200?

I feel bad for her kid's, they won't hardly know her.

She should’ve thought about that when she knew she was breaking the law and screwing people over

while I don't think a mom should be away from her kids, do the crime - do the time. This would - if granted - look terrible and be a display of hypocrisy we just don't need right now.

Sucks to be her

She should be in prison now and do the 11 years she was sentenced to. In a real prison. She knew what she was doing when she got pregnant. She chose to have those kids raised without a mother, there is no excuse. She should have been locked up when convicted!

Having the children was just another ploy. She is a megalomaniac. Lock her up.

she still needs to serve her time; sooty not special treatment

Ha ha … funny demand

Lol…. Not Aprils fools yet….

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣wow she full everyone and now just bc she’s white “ she’s not going to jail!!! I mean wtf

White girls really be living in another dimension

How about the investors she defrauded get to decide? I’m sure some of them had families that were left high and dry.

Get a nanny! Based on the amount of money she stole, she should have plenty for a nanny!

It’s a lot of black kids that never had those options ..

What makes her so special? She should have thought of this before she committed her crime..

And what about the 'very young children' of the people who's life she messed up...?🤔

She's a manipulator. This is what manipulators do. They manipulate. She's been pregnant twice and birthed two babies at critical times of her legal proceedings. She's planning all of this to avoid prison. Don't fall for it.

I think she really thought people were going to let her skate due to blonde white privilege. Comes the rude awakening, Lizzie! People don't like being ripped off, especially rich people!

The audacity of the rich

Don't do the crime... if you can't do the time... don't do it... 🎶

really

And, we continue with the rich & resourceful evading prison time because they have means. This is absolutely preposterous & should end immediately. She should have been in prison a LONG time ago. Put her there!

Are the kids real?

Nanny will raise them

Too bad. Should’ve thought of that before being a phony fraud.
