Joseph P Farrell – A few weeks ago I blogged about a story that fascinates me, that of Elizabeth Holmes and her one-time rocking-and-rolling multi-billion-dollar Silicon Valley start-up biotech company, Theranos.
Her company managed to get several big names on her board before her fall from “grace” and indictment for various types of fraudulent activity. The names included George Schultz, General Mattis, and Riley Bechtel, among many others. So how did someone like Elizabeth Holmes – allegedly a charlatan – manage to con some of the biggest names in the country?
That is, indeed, the question. And thus far, I’m not buying the public narrative, particularly when one compares what Holmes claimed to be up to, and some recent papers.
