It blows my mind that she was found guilty for defrauding investors, but not guilty for defrauding patients about their test results.
Investors know that every dollar they put into a company could disappear, it's why startups get capital from investors and not bank loans.
But a patient does not expect for their blood test results to be completely wrong. Her tests weren't giving false-negatives or false-positives, they were using lab techniques that we have known to be inaccurate for decades. She knowingly sold Walgreens on 1 test, and then performed a different test.
I need to sit down and properly inform myself about how the prosecutors fucked that up so badly.
