Elizabeth Holmes, the disgraced CEO of Theranos, surrendered to authorities to begin her 11-year prison sentence for defrauding investors in her blood-testing scam.
Holmes, who was sentenced in November 2022, is on her way to be incarcerated in the Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas, about 100 miles (160 km) northwest of her hometown of Houston.
As part of her sentence, the 39-year-old founder of the start-up, once touted as a breakthrough health technology company, has also been ordered to pay $452 million in restitution.
