Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup

Everyone heard about this case; Elizabeth Holmes started this insanely innovative health start up, to bring us a technology that would make healthcare faster, more effective, more convenient and cheaper.
She had investors throwing money at her left and right.
Then it turned out she lied. Her revolutionary blood testing system never even worked and SHE KNEW IT ALL ALONG.
As of now, she got a sentence of 11 years in prison.

The amount of fucked up things this company called Theranos did is off the charts. They lied to investors and users (doctors and patients) of the product alike. Holmes and her boyfriend, Sunny Balwani abused workers so much one man, Ian Gibbons actually killed himself. Other people, like Tyler Schultz had their families fall apart. They terrorised their critics with threatening to sue them, having them follower, possibly for years, by private investigators.
Elizabeth Holmes and Sunny Balwani are both insane, dangerous criminals who did things that are inexcusable.
Once shit hit the fan, they tried everything to stop it, from falsifying tests that ensure the quality of lab work, to terrorising people, to then Elizabeth Holmes claiming she only did her crazy shit because she was raped in college. Because that excuses faking medical tests that are crucial for people to not die of preventable illnesses. That excuses having a previous employee followed and threatened with “we know where you live” messages until she wanted to move to China.
They diagnosed people with illnesses they didn't have (surprise! you are not dying after all, sorry for you being in total panic) and most probably said people were clear when they weren't. By the way, they claimed they could run hundreds of tests, from testicular cancer to AIDS.

Now about this as a book.
It took me a long time to get into it, because especially at the beginning, it has a lot of names. Now of course it's a thing because of the insane turnover rates of this hellhole of a company. But really, it wasn't always super easy to follow who did what.
In the later part, it became much better, I felt like it all got more focused.

I'm not sure how good of an idea it was to publish this book when the court case wasn't done yet. That's another part of the story I would have liked to hear more about.
