Episode 38 - The Elizabeth Holmes Trial - What was right & wrong. How much time will she do & how screwed is Sunny

The I Hung Up On Warren Buffett podcast returns this week to
cover a special topic with two special guests, already familiar
to some of our regular listeners.  Our panel today features
Prof. Frank Partnoy and Soren Aandahl. Professor Partnory helps
to mold future lawyers at Berkeley Law, while Soren is a reformed
lawyer turned activist short. Together with The Pack, we dig into
the fun and fraud of the founding first executive at the company
formerly known as Theranos. 


Elizabeth Holmes was convicted on 4 of 11 the charges leveled at
her, perhaps surprising no one other than herself and her newly
minted baby-daddy. We ask our two experts where the trial was
done right, and where they think there may have been missteps by
both prosecution and defense.


Did Elizabeth Holmes convince the jury that she was victimized?
Did the prosecution get a real win that will have a lasting
impact on corporate law and help deter corporate crime? We also
cover the yet pending prosecutions of her peers and discuss how
much jail time Elizabeth Holmes and the others will do in stripes
at federal tennis camp for former executives.


  Sit Back have a drink and see who will win some tacos.
