Federal prosecutors plan to have witnesses tell jurors in the upcoming fraud trial of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes that in company meetings she uttered profane chants about a competing business and a Wall Street Journal reporter, her lawyers noted in a court filing.
That kind of behavior is “normal,” her legal team argued. Holmes, who was CEO of the defunct Palo Alto blood-testing startup, and former company president Sunny Balwani, are charged with a dozen felony fraud counts.
