Disgraced biotech company founder is now due to be released in August 2032, two years and four months before original date

Elizabeth Holmes, the disgraced former chief executive of the blood-testing company Theranos, has had her federal prison sentence shortened again, new records show.

The 40-year-old Holmes is now scheduled for release on 16 August 2032 from a federal women’s prison camp in Bryan, Texas, according to the US Bureau of Prisons website.

Holmes’s sentence was reduced by more than four months, as her previous release date was set for 29 December 2032.

A spokesperson for the Bureau of Prisons confirmed Holmes’s amended sentence to the Guardian but said he could not comment further due to “privacy, safety and security reasons” for inmates.

This is the second time  that Holmes has had her sentence shortened. In July, was reduced by two years.

People incarcerated in the US can have their sentences shortened for good conduct and for completing rehabilitation programs, such as a substance abuse program.

    Liberals passed the 1990’s Crime Bill that enslaved 10’s of millions of black men. They’re crushing protests and supplying Israel’s genocide in Gaza

        As a matter of fact I do. I’m sorry is the liberal establishment not perpetuating a genocide right now in a long running list of genocides?

        I’m not the Alt-right strawman that’s in your head. You actually wanna rebut anything I’ve said or are you going just keep flinging these boring passive aggressive taunts.

      If you don’t want people to think you’re a troll account, you’re doing a terrible job.
