If you haven’t followed this…………look into it. She was a con man/woman who was basking in adoration including a 60 Minutes profile.

Yea, I saw a funny pic yesterday with Holmes on the covers of Fortune and Forbes 400 and Bankman-Fried(FTX) on Forbes also. Hopefully he's going to jail as well. I saw that Tom Brady and Steph Curry lost $$$ in FTX.

I don't get why Corey Booker asked the judge to go easy on Holmes, but it's not as if he's on my radar.

I’m sure Holmes will be very popular with the girls in prison. Especially with that deep voice and all.

Her defense team asked wanted her to get off on an 18-month sentence AT HOME!

I also laughed at the part where people were wondering why this brilliant entrepreneur would rip people off. I guess they never heard of a little thing called "greed".

I followed it, I can't believe the list of people she duped. Wasn't it George Schultz's nephew who was the whistle blower? George himself was one of the people who was fooled by her. She should have got extra time for her pathetic abused lover defense.

I beg to differ on that label, I just see a person good at raising money and keep a con afloat for a long amount of time. She did not do anything brilliant.
