Alleged fraudster Elizabeth Holmes is engaged to hotel heir

https://nypost.com/2019/03/30/convicted-fraudster-elizabeth-holmes-is-engaged-to-hotel-heir/



She’s in trouble, but she’s also in love: Elizabeth Holmes, the indicted founder of the bogus blood-testing company Theranos, has gotten engaged to William “Billy’’ Evans, the heir to a hotel chain, according to multiple reports.

Holmes, 35, is facing up to 20 years prison on accusations that she swindled investors out of hundreds of million of dollars.

Her 27-year-old fiancé is the former manager of special projects for Luminar Technologies, which develops sensors for driverless cars. He had also worked at LinkedIn.

Theranos went belly up after its claims of having developed a device that could quickly diagnose multiple illnesses based on a tiny amount of blood were proven to be phony.

The ugly story is the subject of a series on HBO and a movie starring Jennifer Lawrence.
