Federal judge reduces Elizabeth Holmes' prison sentence by one year
A federal judge reduced Elizabeth Holmes' prison sentence from 11.25 years to 10.25 years under new sentencing guidelines that provide reductions for defendants who did not personally cause substantial financial hardship. The decision was based on Holmes' argument that her wealthy investors could afford their losses and did not suffer individual financial hardship. Prosecutors opposed the reduction.
