Leach asked Holmes if she recollected dismissing concerns raised to Wall Street Journal reporter John Carreyrou by internal whistleblowers as coming from “two disgruntled lower level employees”, characterizing them as insignificant. She said she does not think she told Walgreens that the company was having accuracy problems with its tests. When asked whether she was apprised of what was happening with lab shortcomings at Theranos, Holmes responded she was. However, several witnesses already introduced during the trial, including investors and business partners such as Safeway CEO Steven Burd, testified they believed at the time that Theranos devices were actively being used on the battlefield. She said she did not think she did, as it would have been incorrect. Leach also asked Holmes whether she told investors Theranos devices were being used on military helicopters. The prosecution introduced evidence that Theranos was performing very few of its own tests, showing through one 2013 email the company performed only three of its 12 tests on its own devices.

She frequently dodged questions, responding “I don’t know” and “I don’t remember”. Holmes answered Leach with a more edgy tone than she had in days past, raising her eyebrows and smiling at some repetitive inquiries. US attorney Robert Leach interrogated the 37-year-old regarding the promises she made investors about Theranos’s testing capabilities and what she was told about their shortcomings by scientists at the company. Her defense team will now offer its final questions before closing arguments, which are expected this week. The prosecution wrapped its cross examination of Holmes on Tuesday after nearly six hours of questioning.
