Technical problems with monitors in a San Jose courtroom caused another delay in the trial of former Theranos President and COO Sunny Balwani.
Former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes retuned to the stand Monday revealing a new layer of her defense: she was raped.
Holmes and Balwani were romantically involved at the time. She was convicted in January on four counts of fraud. Prosecutors started out the case Tuesday morning with the example of Safeway and Walgreens, explaining how Balwani and Holmes convinced those companies that the Theranos mini lab device would be able to give patients results in the store after testing one drop of blood from the finger. Prosecutors told the jury those stores invested millions of dollars in Theranos, but that those claims were lies and the device was never able to meet those promises.
