Elizabeth Holmes found guilty

I wonder if that was because they used other testing methods to check patient samples, so they patient got a result regardless of the means by which it was obtained.

NAL, but I believe the prosecution would need to prove damages.

If, like you said, the patients still got their results, the results were correct, and it was only how those results were obtained that lead to the patient fraud charges, then I think you maybe correct.

Again, I'm not a lawyer, so people should feel free to correct me if what I said was wrong.

Still seems like fraud to me, they advertised a single drop of blood and they ended up taking blood samples the normal method.

And exactly what damage was done, slightly less blood in the patient?

I think in some case un-necessary and costly procedures were performed as some of the test were inaccurate.
