This week, the U.S. government takes another L in court as a judge rules that handing out personal data like free candy to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is, in fact, a privacy violation. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Holmes and Sunny Balwani's dreams of walking free are crushed as a judge upholds their fraud convictions and massive fines. Sorry, no Silicon Valley redemption arc for you. Over in crypto, Bitcoin took a wild nosedive, sending traders into full panic mode before bouncing back. Trump Coin also rode the rollercoaster but, let's be honest, it's still circling the drain.In corporate chaos, Warner Bros. Discovery slashed its gaming division, Google axed more employees while crying about AI costs, and an AI-generated video of Trump sucking on Musk's toes somehow took over HUD office TVs. Speaking of Musk, federal tech staffers are resigning en masse rather than work for DOGE, and the FAA is cozying up to SpaceX while pretending it's totally not a conflict of interest. Over in Big Tech, Chegg is suing Google for stealing their content, and Meta can't stop Instagram from flooding users' feeds with violent and NSFW Reels. Also, Grok 3, Musk's AI pet project, handed out chemical weapon blueprints like a particularly unhinged WikiHow before xAI scrambled to cover their tracks.On the media front, Andor is coming back with a binge-friendly release schedule, Kathleen Kennedy is finally exiting Lucasfilm, and Daredevil: Born Again is getting early buzz.

La semana pasada ingresó en una penitenciaría federal situada en Texas Elizabeth Holmes, fundadora de la empresa Theranos y protagonista de uno de los mayores escándalos corporativos de los últimos años. Holmes fue declarada culpable hace año y medio por un jurado de engañar a los inversores de su empresa, una start-up californiana ya desaparecida que afirmaba haber revolucionado los análisis de sangre. Meses más tarde, en noviembre del año pasado, un juez federal la condenó a once años y tres meses de cárcel. Holmes recurrió la sentencia para retrasar su ingreso en prisión, pero de nada le valió, el juez decretó que antes del 30 de mayo tenía que presentarse en la cárcel. Aparte de eso tendrá que pagar 452 millones de dólares a las víctimas del fraude. La caída de Holmes, la empresaria de moda en Silicon Valley hace menos de diez años, estuvo provocada por una serie de reportajes que publicó el Wall Street Journal entre 2015 y 2016. El diario neoyorquino detalló como la máquina de análisis que había patentado Theranos no sólo no funcionaba, sino que además ponía en riesgo la vida de los pacientes. Theranos negó rotundamente lo que contaba el Journal y amenazó al periódico con acciones judiciales que quedaron en nada. Entre tanto hizo desaparecer pruebas y se apresuró a llegar a un acuerdo con los que habían invertido millones de dólares en la empresa y los reguladores federales. Pero el acuerdo no evitó el juicio. Holmes y su socio, el programador pakistaní Sunny Balwani, fueron encausados en junio de 2018 por nueve cargos penales y dos de conspiración. Ambos negaron de plano haber hecho nada mal, pero la empresa se vino abajo rápidamente. Sólo tres meses después se disolvió en medio de un gran escándalo ya que gente muy significada de la política y las finanzas había apoyado a Theranos y, especialmente, a su fundadora, a quien tenían como una especie de genio empresarial de nuestro tiempo al nivel de Steve Jobs o Jeff Bezos. La prensa adoraba a la empresa de Holmes y a la propia Holmes. En su mejor momento, justo antes de que estallase el escándalo, la revista Time la incluyó en la lista de las cien personas más influyentes del mundo. La revista Forbes le concedió un premio y la colocó en su lista de las mujeres más poderosas del planeta. La cadena Bloomberg no quiso quedarse atrás y le franqueó la entrada al exclusivo ranking de los 50 más influyentes cuando no había cumplido aún los 30 años. Holmes estaba muy bien conectada y se había fabricado incluso un personaje público. Se presentaba como una persona fría y distante siempre vestida de negro. Esa imagen cuidadosamente trabajada la catapultó a la fama. No era para menos, el sistema que había creado para hacer análisis de sangre era revolucionario, bastaba con unas gotas de sangre que una máquina diseñada al efecto se encargaría de analizar en poco tiempo y arrojar resultados. Los inversores se entusiasmaron empujando a la empresa a una valoración altísima, de más de 10.000 millones de dólares en su momento álgido. Gracias a eso Holmes se convirtió en una multimillonaria jovencísima. En 2015 su patrimonio ascendía a 4.500 millones de dólares y su compañía se la rifaban empresarios, periodistas, universidades, políticos y grandes inversores. Todo el dinero y la fama se evaporaron en sólo unos meses. Para hablar de este escándalo que tanta tinta ha hecho correr vuelve hoy a La ContraCrónica Andrea Martos, que está de visita en Madrid y que conoce el tema de Theranos muy a fondo. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Hispanos.

It was a long wacky December in the world of federal sentencing. I can't remember a month with more high profile proceedings, and Mark Allenbaugh (www.sentencingstats.com) and I covered all of it in a marathon, 4-hour session. Here is part 3, dissecting the sentencings of Julie and Todd Chrisley, the star of USA Network's reality shitshow, "Chrisley Knows Best." This husband and wife duo were convicted after trial of multiple fraud charges. After a lackluster performance from the defense, Todd received a 12-year sentence, his wife received 7.  So, what went wrong? IN THIS EPISODE: Gender disparity in federal sentencing; Yet another missed opportunity to argue life expectancy; Explaining the very basics of sentencing memos; Why the defense memos were among the worst we've seen; How and why the power of story lies in the details; Remembering Rodney King and Stacey Coon!? – if you are still talking about your case being outside of the “heartland”, you're 20 years behind schedule; The ongoing saga of the sentencing letter. LINKS: Last episode:  We started this conversation in EP. #31 (Sunny Balwani Sentencing Post Mortem) by doing comparative statistical analysis of Avenatti's sentencing with Holmes, Bulwani and the Chrisleys.  If you haven't heard the first 20 or so minutes of that episode, it's most certainly pertinent to today's discussion on Avenatti.   Check it out at: www.setforsentencing.com/balwani Patterson study: we can't stress this enough. Unless the crime is beyond atrocious, most judges will think long and hard before imposing a sentencing they believe will result in a defacto life sentence.  Therefore, life expectancy could make a huge impact at sententencing.  But do it right, using this study showing that life expectancy for incarcerated individuals is far different:  https://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/abs/10.2105/AJPH.2012.301148  We talk about the importance of telling a story with detail and making it relevant to punishment, using Mr. Chrisley's “fibromyalgia” as the prime example.  The defense informed the judge of his diagnosis yet said nothing of symptoms and how it would affect him in prison.  Another huge opportunity missed.  If you'd like to know more about Telling the story of prison, check out EP.  3, with prison expert and former warden, Maureen Baird.  https://youtu.be/fCls6d1pzuA  

Let's call this part-two of our long days journey into the night of several recent high profile federal setnencings.  Continuing our conversation from last week (Sunny Bulwani), we dig in to the sentencing of the very public and tragic fall of attorney Michael Avenatti.  We did most of the stats in last week's episode, but this week (see links below).  In today's episode, we first focus on some statistical missed opportunities, particularly when it come to life expectancy.Tnen, we really dig in on the narrative shortcomings of Avenatti's sentencing presentation. Avenatti did himself no favors when, acting as his own attorney, he plead guilty without any agreements in the last of his three federal cases. Although statistically he came out all right, in practical terms, this man is likely to spend the rest of his life in a prison cell.  Today we make the case that Avenatti's failure to put forth any coherent and credible narrative to help the judge understand why he did what he did, what he is going to do to make it right, and why it will never happen again, sealed his own fate at sentencing.    IN THIS EPISODE: What it means to do an “open plea”; How making an unreasonable sentencing request risks removing you from the conversation; Comparing Avenatti's fraud sentences to those sentenced for murder and kidnapping, and recidivist child porn offenses; Judges can and do request sentencing statistics from the US sentencing commission, but you might not know it; Examining and critiquing the sentencing memos for narrative, style, and strategy; The mishap with Avenatti's Residential Drug & Alcohol Program (RDAP) request; Another bummer example of what happens when we ignore the all-important life-expectancy statistics; Putting pictures in pleadings; they go in the body of your memo, not in the back as exhibits; Avenatti's giant, missed opportunity to create context and connection with well-told, credible revelation and redemption stories.  LINKS: Last episode:  We began this conversation in EP. #32 (Sunny Balwani Sentencing Post Mortem) by doing a thorough, comparative statistical analysis of Avenatti's sentencing with Holmes, Bulwani and the Chrisleys (reality star fraudsters).  If you haven't heard the first 20 or so minutes of that episode, it's most certainly pertinent to today's discussion on Avenatti.   Check it out, along with Mark's awesome graphs and charts at: www.setforsentencing.com/balwani  or on YOUTUBE:  https://youtu.be/qVFps0dz8-k A couple months back, we gave Elizabeth Holmes the same treatment.  You can listen or watch that episode (Sentencing Post-Mortem Podcast) here: https://dougpassonlaw.com/podcast/elizabeth-holmes-sentencing-post-mortem/  or on YOUTUBE:  https://youtu.be/8QmadJLe3NQ ABT Book!  When analyzing the defense memo, we see the ABT at work, clearly defining the problem the judge needs to address ("the But").  The book is 7 bucks on amazon if you want to learn more.  If you're not up for buying the book, here's a short blog post on it: https://dougpassonlaw.com/blog/the-three-most-important-words-in-persuasive-communication/ Patterson study: Avenatti missed it. Holmes & Balwani missed it.  So did the Chrisley's.  Life expectancy could make a huge impact at sentencing.  And remember the Patterson study to make sure you're getting accurate numbers!  https://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/full/10.2105/AJPH.2012.301148?role=tab MARK's CHARTS:  visit www.setforsentencing.com/avenatti to see some more of Mark Allenbaugh's visual aids concerning relevant statistical issues in the case. 3 RS:  Here we again analyze the defense mitigation presentation through the lens of the “3Rs” of Sentencing Narrative.  Avenatti missed the boat on all of them, but especialy REVELATION and REDEMPTION.  If you'd like to learn more about the 3Rs, head over to the shownotes at www.setforsentencing.com/avenatti, for a free download of the article I wrote on the subject for The Champion (NACDL).

In this case, we deal with the "ABCs" of federal fraud sentencing, meaning, we're doing a deep comparative analysis of three recent high profile cases: MICHAEL AVENATTI, SUNNY BALWANI, and JULIE & TODD CHRISLEY. I never ceased to be amazed by the miraculous work Mark Allenbaugh does with sentencing stats, but, maybe more so than any of our previous collaborations, this one is chock full of so much practical advice for every lawyer and litigant facing sentencing.  Besides the comparative overview we do a deeper dive into Balwani's sentencing proceeding, and Doug digs in to the sentencing memoranda here to grade the performance of the government and defense lawyers in presenting their written narrative to the court. The main takeaway from the statistics, is that when it comes to how the guidelines are applied, the only thing that seems certain is uncertainty.  The real lesson here, therefore, is that telling a compelling a sentencing story is far more important than the seemingly random and irrational, dehumanizing sentencing guidelines. In other words, a client gets far more traction using 18 USC 3553 to build their powerful and persuasive sentencing narrative. IN THIS EPISODE: Statistical comparative analysis of Sunny Balwani, Michael Avenatti, Julie & Todd Chrisley, and Elizabeth Holmes sentencing outcomes; Whether judges artificially manipulate the guidelines to reach a result they feel is right; Proposing fixes to the very broken sentencing guidelines (spoiler alert: it's the sentencing TABLE that's the real problem); Story matters, perhaps most of all and likely explains much of these disparate outcomes; A scathing critique of the government's sentencing memo in Balwani; Kudos to the defense for drafting a much more compelling piece of narrative writing; Applying the “AND, BUT, THEREFORE” (problem-solution dynamic) narrative model to the defense memo; Stats on disparate treatment of men vs. (white, educated) women at sentencing; Stats on disparate treatment based on race; Could Balwani's case have beneffited from a sentencing video? Disabusing lawyers from going the old school route of character letter inundation; What's the right length for a sentencing memo; Why defense lawyers must still always discuss Covid, life expectancy, BOP health care, and overcrowding; How lawyers can take themselves out of the sentencing conversation by making an unsupported, outlandish, unreasonable sentencing recommendations; The one aspect of the government's argument that rubbed Doug really wrong; Some specifics about where Mr. Balwani may serve his sentence.

Unless the crime is beyond atrocious, most judges will think long and hard before imposing a sentencing they believe will result in a defacto life sentence.  Therefore, life expectancy could make a huge impact at sententencing.  But do it right, using this study showing that life expectancy for incarcerated individuals is far different: https://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/full/10.2105/AJPH.2012.301148?role=tab Where a person will serve their sentence and how they will serve it can be mitigation.  Sometimes an expert on this topic is necessary.  Check out Episode 3, “Telling the Stry of Prison at Sentencing” with BOP Expert, Former Warden Maureen Baird.  https://dougpassonlaw.com/podcast/telling-the-story-of-prison-at-sentencing/ Mitigation Videos :  Could Sunny Balwani have beneffitted from a defense documentary or "sentencing mitigation video"?  There is a debate about whether this could be counterproductive in high-dollar white collar cases.  In this case, however, Passon makes a compelling case that the truth of Mr. Balwani's good character could have come to life in living color with a well-made defense doc.   If you're interested in seeing some examples, visit www.dougpassonlaw.com

The court has since ordered a hearing and additional briefing on Holmes' motion for a new trial and denied Balwani's motion for a new trial.

Founder Elizabeth Holmes' ex-boyfriend Ramesh "Sunny" Balwani, former COO of failed blood testing startup Theranos, was found guilty of defrauding investors and patients. The jury deliberated for four days following a lengthy trial that began in March with opening statements. Almost four years ago, Balwani and Holmes were indicted for allegedly defrauding investors and patients at Theranos. Holmes' legal team stated in legal filings that she intended to make accusations about their relationship as part of her defense. A jury found Balwani guilty of four of 11 federal fraud and conspiracy charges against Holmes, the founder and former CEO of a failed blood testing startup. During Balwani's trial, the government called two dozen witnesses - many of whom had previously testified in Holmes' trial - to prove that he had intentionally deceived investors and patients. Only two witnesses testified for the defense. During the defense's arguments, Balwani was portrayed as acting in good faith and believing in his company's technology. Furthermore, the defense questioned whether the government had sufficient evidence to convict Balwani. During a summer program in Beijing to learn Mandarin in 2002, Balwani and Holmes met. In addition to his successful career in the software industry, Balwani was an entrepreneur nearly 20 years older than Holmes. Holmes testified in her own defense that their friendship eventually turned romantic. The pair moved in together by 2005, the year after Holmes dropped out of Stanford to work full-time on Theranos. Following a $10 million loan guarantee, Balwani took on a formal role at the startup. On each count of wire fraud and conspiracy, Balwani faces up to 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000 plus restitution. Not guilty, he has pleaded. In late September, Holmes will be sentenced.
