for up to 20 years in prison. the federal prosecutors wanted 15 years. the federal probation department recommended nine. legal experts say this is somewhat more than expected. it is unusual to have a sentence more than what the federal probation department recommends. the four month long trial wrapped nearly a year ago. during that time, there was anticipation for holmes' sentencing and speculation over what the message would send. the judge was very specific, saying he was taking into account the sympathetic factors. she is pregnant with her second child. and also, more than 130 letters that were sent in in support of holmes from family, friend, loved ones, including senator

cory booker and her partner billy evans describing his plea to the judge to be merciful. the judge said he spent a long and hard time thinking about this and wanted to be fair. that is how he is described among his peers. he said he took into account the fact that this scheme went on for five years. one argument that was made by the prosecution that was highlighted through much of this trial that became a strong sentiment for the judge today was the fact that holmes' intent. what she knew. she knew this was a flawed technology but allowed it to get on the shelves of walgreens. when the company was running out of money, she had a choice whether or not to dissolve the company then or to move forward. she chose to move forward and allow that contract to continue as well as recruit new investors.

the judge was very clear that this was a clear choice. he made it a point that this was a complicated case. as we heard from elizabeth holmes herself, taking the stand in tears, expressing to judge davila that she felt extremely remorseful for her actions and that she was not intending to defraud people and that she was sorry. those who witnessed it felt it was not as genuine as they would have expected, given the severity of crimes and the amount of money lost in the fact that it went on for as long as it did. we heard from the father of tyler schultz, alex schultz, who is the son of george schultz, who is an investor and former secretary of state. he spoke directly to homes,

visibly. he was to the left, he looks directly at her and tells how she desecrated his family of all of the continued lies in what it put them through including his son who used to be a former theranos employee and described how in that how when holmes -- holmes hired an investigator and he had to sleep with his knife under the pillow. at the end of the day, it shows this 11 year sentence is sending a clear message to silicon valley that this strong sense of salesmanship will not be tolerated if it is merged into misrepresentation. first an a lot of people were wondering if the pregnancy would soften sentencing. it did not appear to have done that.
