Theranos founder and former CEO Elizabeth Holmes has been found guilty in four counts of criminal fraud.

Theranos founder and former CEO Elizabeth Holmes was found guilty on two counts of wire fraud and two counts of conspiracy to commit fraud by a jury on Monday. Holmes faces up to 20 years in prison for each guilty count.

Elizabeth Holmes was found guilty of four charges of fraud on Monday, capping the fall of a prominent entrepreneur in a case that came to represent hazards of Silicon Valley’s “fake it till you make it” ethos.
