Convicted Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes bought a one-way plane ticket to Mexico last year and remains a flight risk, prosecutors say in newly filed court documents.
Holmes was found guilty last year of defrauding investors in her once high-flying technology company and was sentenced to 11 years in prison in November.
She has been ordered to surrender to authorities to begin serving her sentence in April but has appealed, asking the court to delay the date.
Prosecutors opposed Holmes’ request in documents filed Friday, arguing that her ticket purchase established that she is a flight risk.
“The government became aware on January 23, 2022, that defendant Holmes booked an international flight to Mexico departing on January 26, 2022, without a scheduled return trip,” they said in the filing.
