Elizabeth Holmes accuses Sunny Balwani, Theranos partner of abuse | New York Post

Elizabeth Holmes trial update | New York Post

Elizabeth Holmes — the disgraced founder of defunct blood-testing startup Theranos — cried on the stand Monday as she testified about being raped as a student and allegedly abused by her ex-boyfriend and former business partner.

The 37-year-old entrepreneur testified that being raped while a student at Stanford University pushed her to drop out of school and throw herself into building the company.

When she later started dating Sunny Balwani, her co-defendant and former Theranos COO who’s being tried separately, “he said I was safe now that I had met him,” Holmes testified as part of her own defense in her fraud trial.

But, she went on, Balwani allegedly perpetuated a cycle of abuse in which he controlled all aspects of Holmes’ life and the way she ran Theranos.
