San Jose | Former Theranos executive Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani was sentenced on Wednesday (Thursday AEDT) to almost 13 years in prison for his role in the company’s blood-testing hoax – a punishment slightly longer than that given to the CEO, who was his lover and accomplice in one of Silicon Valley’s biggest scandals.
Balwani, 57, was convicted in July of fraud and conspiracy connected to the company’s bogus medical technology that duped investors and endangered patients.
