Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, imprisoned in Texas after felony fraud convictions, this week asked the federal court in San Jose to slash more than two years off her 11-year sentence, arguing that her work to help fellow prisoners and herself qualifies her for the reduction.

“Amidst the challenges of adjusting to incarceration, Ms. Holmes has dedicated herself to being an engaged prisoner, serving other women, and actively seeking opportunities to make a difference,” her lawyers said in a filing in U.S. District Court in San Jose. “Ms. Holmes’ record in prison demonstrates that she is dedicated to learning from her journey and applying those lessons to serving her community.”

Holmes has “participated in or is on the wait list for every program recommended by prison personnel, including trauma treatment and ongoing counseling,” the filing said. Holmes has said she was raped in college and sexually abused by Sunny Balwani, former Theranos president and her former lover, who has denied her claim.

Holmes, a 41-year-old mother of two, was convicted by a jury on four counts of felony criminal fraud in early 2022 for bilking investors in her now-defunct Palo Alto blood-testing startup Theranos out of hundreds of millions of dollars. Jurors heard she duped investors with false claims about her technology, said to be capable of performing a full range of tests but only able to conduct a handful.

Holmes is serving her sentence at a minimum-security federal prison 100 miles northwest of Houston, Texas.

Last month, a federal appeals court nixed her latest bid to overturn her conviction and sentence, narrowing her options for early freedom to a Hail Mary appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, a presidential pardon, or, as it turned out this week, an argument that her “excellent post-sentencing conduct,” lack of previous criminal history, and her non-violent crimes make her eligible under federal sentencing guidelines for a sentence reduction of two years and three months.
