Disgraced Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes has been taken into custody in her new home – a federal prison where she has been sentenced to spend the next 11 years for overseeing a blood-testing hoax that became a parable about greed and hubris in Silicon Valley.
The United States federal judge who sentenced Holmes, 39, in November recommended that she be imprisoned in a women’s prison camp located in Bryan, Texas, located about 160km (100 miles) from Houston, where she grew up aspiring to become a technology visionary along the lines of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.
