Elizabeth Holmes, the former CEO of Theranos, was brought into detention on Tuesday to start receiving her 11-year imprisonment term in a Texas jail for scamming shareholders of hundreds of millions of dollars and fabricating information regarding the blood-testing equipment used by her biotech firm.
Holmes, 39, will be detained at a minimum-security facility for female prisoners in Bryan, Texas, which is 95 miles northwest of Houston and there she spent her early years dreaming of becoming a genius in the field of technology like Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. She left away a 3-month-old daughter that was born shortly after her arrest in November 2022 and a roughly 2-year-old boy who was born only weeks from the beginning of her sentence.
The “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Jennifer Shah, that was convicted early last year to 6 1/2 years in jail for scamming dozens of individuals in a telemarketer scam, is one of the 700 women who live at FPC Bryan, which occupies around 37 acres of ground.
