Stanford dropout, Silicon Valley darling girl gets a slap on the wrist, pays $500,000 fine.

Shkreli has to fork over more than $7 million, spend 7 years in prison.

That is actually not illegal.

However, doing so brings attention to yourself and causes the Feds to scrutinize everything you do and gets them to throw the book at you when they discover your "harmless white collar crime." So instead of a slap on the wrist and small fine he loses his Wu Tang Clan album, loads of cash and gets seven years at Club Fed.

it's wasn't a ponzi scheme - he just lost the money and then used ponzi tactics to cover it up, before he struck it rick and was able to pay them back.

Madoff was all ponzi from the start.

> claimed that Theranos’ products were deployed by the U.S. Department of Defense on the battlefield in Afghanistan and on medevac helicopters and that the company would generate more than $100 million in revenue in 2014. In truth, Theranos’ technology was never deployed by the U.S. Department of Defense and generated a little more than $100,000 in revenue from operations in 2014.

lmao

For instance, Holmes and Balwani told one investor that Theranos' proprietary analyzer could process over 1,000 Current Procedural Terminology ('CPT') codes and that Theranos had developed a technological solution for an additional 300 CPT codes," even though "Theranos' analyzers never performed comprehensive testing or processed 1,000 CPT codes in its clinical lab," and in fact never processed more than 12 tests on its TSPU. 5 And Theranos would even do a little pantomime blood-draw demonstration directly on the investors:

This initial meeting was often followed by a purported demonstration of Theranos' proprietary analyzers, the TSPU, and the miniLab. In several instances, potential investors would be taken by Holmes and Balwani to a different room to view Theranos' desktop computer-like analyzers. A phlebotomist would arrive to draw their blood through fingerstick, using a nanotainer, a Theranos-developed collection device. Then the sample was either inserted into the TSPU or taken away for processing. Based on what they saw, potential investors believed that Theranos had tested their blood on either an earlier-generation TSPU or the miniLab. As Holmes knew, or was reckless in not knowing, however, Theranos often actually tested their blood on third-party analyzers, because Theranos could not conduct all of the tests it offered prospective investors on its proprietary analyzers.

"Until a drug company executive goes to jail, this won’t stop. They simply say, ‘We’re going to kill X many people, injure Y. Of those, only A percent will know, and of those, only B percent will be able to do something about it.’ Factor all this into the price of doing business, including payoffs to the families of the ones they kill, and they’re still making huge profits. Whether someone is actually so diabolical as to put it into those words, or whether it’s just the way things work out, I don’t know. The result is the same."

Given the level of corruption and human harm he encountered, Jones insists that he had no real choice: he was compelled to blow the whistle, because inaction would have made him an accessory to the crime. In this telling, there is an inevitability to what happened, as if he were the protagonist in a Greek tragedy, walking the path that the Fates had foretold.
