Elizabeth Holmes Sentencing

Holmes tried to delay sentencing by asking for a new trial. She claimed that new evidence had been discovered. Holmes was visited by Adam Rosendorff, former director of Theranos’ lab, in August to try and find closure.

Rosendorff was a Theranos employee between 2013-2014 and testified six days during Holmes’ four month trial. Rosendorff’s highly technical knowledge of Theranos’ labs was crucial to the trial.

He testified that Holmes knew Theranos’ technology could produce inaccurate results from blood tests, but she insisted on its use for patients. He quit Theranos after repeatedly raising concerns about the flawed technology.

Holmes’ lawyers claimed that Rosendorff made Theranos look worse when he visited her summer home. These allegations were not supported by Judge Edward Davila.

Rosendorff confirmed that the testimony from last year was true. Rosendorff clarified that he felt sorry about Holmes’ child and would not wish to see her go to prison.

Holmes’ legal team will likely appeal the sentencing next week, prolonging the legal process and causing delays after a long-delayed trial. Ramesh Balwani, Holmes’ ex-boyfriend and Theranos COO is due to be sentenced in December 7. Holmes was convicted on four counts related to fraud concerning investors. Balwani was convict on all 12 counts defrauding investors and patients.

The jury reached a verdict after seven days of deliberations and four months of court proceedings.

This verdict will have long-lasting implications for Silicon Valley and the rest of Silicon Valley. For two charges, the former youngest and most successful female self-made billionaire was convicted. Continue reading

‘water Cannon Man’ Arrested In Amritpal Singh: Liberals Make A Hero Out Of Khalistan Supporter

water Cannon Man

‘Water Cannon Man’ Arrested In Amritpal Singh: On Sunday, Navdeep Singh Jalbehra–hailed by some as the ‘water cannon man’ during the Delhi agitation–was taken into custody for protesting against police action towards Amritpal Singh, leader of Waris Punjab De. Following his arrest, Jalbehra called for the continuation of Shambhu barrier protests in solidarity with radical activists and Khalistan supporters.

At the ‘Delhi Chalo’ march of November 2020, Navdeep gained notoriety by climbing onto a water cannon and redirecting it away from farmers, ultimately turning off its power to protect them from police action that was meant to stop protesters crossing Punjab-Haryana borders into Delhi. On Sunday morning, Navdeep posted a video on Facebook in which he called upon people to support Amritpal, describing him as an extraordinary warrior: “Individuals like him aren’t born every day.”

But Navdeep, arrested for supporting Khalistan supporters during farmer protests in Delhi in 2020, was celebrated by left-leaning liberals as a hero for breaking a police barricade and trying to run over policemen with his speeding tractor-trolley.

How liberals made Navdeep Singh into a hero for supporting Khalistani causes

Recently, self-described liberals who had been supporting extremist elements and instigating insurrection against the democratically elected government of the day have gone into raptures about him, hailing him as a “water cannon man” for defying police authorities by breaking barricades, endangering law enforcement officers’ lives.

Aditya Menon, a journalist with The Quint, who has become notorious for disparaging Indian soldiers by misrepresenting a 2012 picture from Syria as coming from Kashmir, had extolled Navdeep as an inspiring young farmer who bravely turned off the water cannon tap during a farmers’ protest in Delhi.

On Sunday evening, Punjab Police reported that pro-Khalistani activist Amritpal Singh remains at large despite a massive manhunt launched to capture him. Amritpal Singh went missing yesterday after police launched an operation against his Waris Punjab De and arrested several members of the organization.

“Punjab Police is adhering to the law,” IGP Sukhchain Gill declared in a video message late Sunday evening. He further appealed for all citizens to maintain peace and harmony rather than panicking. “Don’t believe rumors or false news,” he concluded, emphasizing his plea for calm in times of uncertainty.

Punjab police have confirmed to media reports that Amritpal Singh had been arrested and taken to Dibrugarh in Assam. A special Indian Air Force plane transported four arrested individuals to Dibrugarh where they have since been lodged at the central jail of this eastern Assamese town.

Russian President Vladimir Putin visits the occupied city of Mariupol in Ukraine

Mariupol in Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin paid an unexpected nighttime visit to Mariupol, Ukraine’s occupied city that symbolizes Kyiv’s fierce resistance to Moscow’s invasion, in what appeared to be a show of defiance after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a war for his arrest.

On March 19, Russian state media reported that Putin flew by helicopter to Mariupol, the port city devastated by Russian bombardments and heavy fighting, for a “working visit,” during which he visited several sites and spoke to residents.

Live Briefing: Russia’s Invasion Of Ukraine

RFE/RL’s Live Briefing provides the latest updates on Russia’s full-scale invasion, Kyiv’s counteroffensives, Western military aid, global reaction and the suffering of civilians. To follow all of RFE/RL’s coverage of this conflict, click here.

On February 24, 2022, Putin made his first trip to a region of Ukraine occupied by Russian forces since beginning his full-scale invasion. These trips are typically carefully orchestrated by the Kremlin in order to enhance Putin’s image at home.

Mariupol’s battle for survival garnered international attention as Ukrainian fighters bravely held out against overwhelming odds for three months inside a massive metals plant, before ultimately surrendering in May 2022 when their supplies of food and medicine ran low.

But the battle also showcased Russia’s brutality, as its military launched strikes against civilian infrastructure, killing what is believed to be thousands of Mariupol residents and leading to accusations of war crimes.

In two of the most notorious cases, Russia shelled a theater used as a bomb shelter and killed up to 600 people – including those in a maternity ward.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Kyiv, Ukraine caused outrage both in Kyiv and beyond.

In a statement issued by the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, Putin chose to visit Mariupol at night in order to conceal from Russian TV viewers the destruction he caused and subsequent emptiness it has created.

Once a bustling port city with a population of half a million, Mariupol is now home to just 90,000 residents – many too old or ill to leave the devastated city.

Mariupol’s surroundings are filled with the graves of those lost during battle

“Criminals never leave the crime scene,” Ukrainian Presidential aide Mykhaylo Podolyak noted in a tweet regarding Putin’s visit to Mariupol. “The killer of thousands of Mariupol families came to admire the ruins and graves with complete cynicism and lack of regret.”

Due to Russian bombing and blockades, some Mariupol residents managed to flee into Kyiv-controlled territory. Others went back home; many forcibly; this included children.

On March 17th, the International Criminal Court issued an unprecedented warrant for arresting President Putin and Maria Lvova-Belova – a Russian children’s rights official – over what appears to be deportations of Ukrainian children to Russia. This allegation has been the focus of much controversy in Ukraine regarding child rights violations.

On March 17, the International Criminal Court (ICC) stated: “There are reasonable grounds to believe each suspect is accountable for unlawful deportation of population and transfer from occupied areas of Ukraine to Russia, at the expense of Ukrainian children,” they added.

A warrant has been issued, meaning Putin could be arrested if he enters any of the 123 member states of the Court.

“Not Enough”: Ukrainians Respond to ICC Arrest Warrant and War Crimes Charges Against Putin for Illegal Deportations Of Ukrainian Children

The Kremlin rejected the warrant, asserting it to be invalid because Russia does not fall within ICC jurisdiction and Ukraine is not a member of the organization.

Putin’s Mariupol visit comes one day after he visited Crimea to mark the ninth anniversary of Russia’s annexation of the peninsula from Ukraine.

Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea after Kyiv’s overthrow of Moscow-leaning President Viktor Yanukovych in February 2014 marked the beginning of a new phase in their aggression against Ukraine that would culminate with their full-scale invasion last year.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has pledged to retake all territory taken by Russia, including Crimea. Ukraine is prepping a major counteroffensive which analysts predict could begin as early as next month.

In the meantime, Ukraine and Russia have agreed to extend a deal that allows safe passage of grain exports through Ukraine’s ports on the Black Sea.

Watch: As Russian shelling continues to pound Avdiyivka, the once industrial city lies in ruin. But its few remaining residents insist they won’t give up hope – no matter what comes their way.

After several days of negotiations, Ukraine declared the deal had been extended for 120 days while Russia indicated they had accepted a 60-day extension.

On March 18, the United Nations issued a statement affirming the extension of the Black Sea Grain Initiative, signed in Istanbul last summer by UN and Turkey with Russia and Ukraine.

In a statement issued by the UN, they acknowledged that the deal had enabled the supply of 25 million tons of grain and foodstuffs, helping to lower global food prices and stabilize markets. They also expressed gratitude to Turkey for its diplomatic and operational support for the agreement.

Britain’s Defense Ministry noted in its daily intelligence bulletin that Russia’s decision to temporarily switch the regional capital of Zaporizhzhya region — one of four illegally annexed last year — could be seen as “a tacit acknowledgment” that they will likely fail to achieve their objectives within the near future.

On March 3, authorities in Russia’s-controlled region issued a decree declaring Melitopol the interim regional capital until Zaporizhzhya city is fully controlled by Russia, Britain’s Defense Ministry reported via Twitter update. Noting that Russia had never actually occupied Zaporizhzhya city – 35 kilometers away from the current front line – as their current regional capital.

On March 19th, the intelligence update noted that Russia’s forces may have concluded that they cannot expect to achieve their previously planned major objectives anytime soon.
