Elizabeth Holmes’ prison sentence reduced by two years.

The disgraced Theranos founder and CEO has had her prison sentence reduced from 11 years and 3 months to 9 years and 7 months. No reason has been given, but could be on account of behavioral considerations like following orders and completing rehabilitation courses.

Nevertheless, as The Guardian notes:

People convicted of federal offenses must serve 85 percent of their mandated sentence, even if they get time shaved off for good conduct.

Her new release date is now 29 December, 2032.
