Three months after the trial of disgraced tech CEO Elizabeth Holmes began, the case is currently on recess as closing arguments draw near.

Holmes, whose blood-testing startup Theranos was accused of engaging in fraudulent and dangerous activities, and her defense team rested their case on Wednesday. She had taken the stand and claimed that the suspicious and unethical conduct were bad business decisions rather than purposeful fraud. More than 30 people testified throughout the course of the trial, both in defense of and against Holmes.
