What we learned this week in the trial of Elizabeth Holmes
An Eventful Week in Elizabeth Holmes’ Trial #
It was an eventful week in the closely-watched trial of Elizabeth Holmes, with witnesses testifying about the downfall of her blood testing company, Theranos.
One potentially damning testimony came from a nurse practitioner and her patient. The practitioner encouraged her patient, who had experienced multiple miscarriages, to use Theranos for a hormone test. However, a competitor’s test results later showed that the patient’s pregnancy was fine.
Former US Secretary of Defense James Mattis also testified, stating that he lost confidence in Theranos over his three years on the company’s board.
Text messages between Holmes and her ex-boyfriend and former COO were analyzed, revealing their awareness of issues at Theranos.
Adam Rosendorff, a former lab director for Theranos, expressed concerns about inaccurate test results and the rushed launch of the company’s devices.
The trial will continue on Tuesday with Rosendorff’s further testimony.
