100% grade A sociopath. Her only regret is getting caught, she has ZERO remorse.

[sarabrant]

She has a small child after being charged with a crime where you're facing 20 years and then you have the nerve to get pregnant again? Now you got to have a baby in prison! She is so irresponsible not only with people's money but with the lives of those children

[tangaz]

They asked for 18 months house arrest???😱😱🤢🤢🤢The absolute entitlement of it all.

[banu]

11 years 3 months will only encourage other sociopaths and psychopaths who are dying to be CEOs to do whatever they please and say: 'I had the best intentions at heart but couldn't deliver what I promised.I didn't cheat, I simply failed."
She is going to a much more lenient prison anyhow and she also has the chance of getting out after serving only 5 years.

How insane do you have to be, to get pregnant when you know you are on trial and going to be sent to jail... the woman is a total psychopath without a conscience.

[eggplantandpeach]

Let her be an example to other narcissist CEO's

[andresmattos]

She was devastated when she was caught

[jennpul]

What an evil person she is allowing herself to get pregnant knowing that there is a great possibility that she will be jailed. I guess that she hoped that the pregnancy would stall her sentencing...no consideration for anyone but herself

[_Pence]

What kind of psycho is facing 20 and gets pregers.

[musiclover]

The judge even ruled in her favor for the sentence to come out to 11 and not 15 or longer, what a joke!

[jasonfallon]

It’s amazing, the power of a woman’s good looks in a courtroom.

[Celticowl]

Kissinger on the board should have been an alarm bell lol

[stoic]

It is why America is leading the world. its institutions are very strong if it were my country she would have been saved by politicians in power ..strong institutions make a country great

[Yyaammzz]

Wow I’ve been following this case for so long. Finally a sentencing. What a crazy saga

[natalijamartina]

Amazing how narcissistic personality disorder is becoming worldwide spread and among all characters and professions.

[DarkStarAZ]

Wonder how much she stashed away in the Cayman's?

[anibalmiranda]

Well just think about who was also endorsing her, is not that greedy people?You would think that those were Smart people. The love of money Will bring anyone down

[loveheals]

Don't take money from influential and rich investors if you know you're about to develop a concept you can't develop into a tangible concept or product. She messed with the wrong WRONG people .

[kenfu]

i bet she is already learning karate from gangsters

[geoffreyomwanza]

Getting my citizenship soon, America does not play with fraud, even our president could go to prison. Let’s talk about kenya where prison is only for the poor
