That's because his original 24 year sentence was reduced to 14 after a Supreme Court case vacated part of his convictions.
My bet, based on some calculators I've seen, is that Holmes serves (actually in jail) 14-18 years.
What does that mean to you? I am curious to know why you'd make that bet with the OP with those two facts alone.
Edit: Duh, four.
Non American here, why do people use this infantile term to refer to a spouse? Unless I am mistaken, the father of her child is her husband - why use another term?
Edit: Thanks everyone for pointing out that you don't need to be married to have a child, wow, everyday a school day on HN.
But her husband _is_ as far as we know, the father of her child.
Not exactly sure where the term came from, but I know I’ve heard it in songs, seen it in movies and on TV, etc. It’s just a popular phrase.
Yes. And, as the G(GG...?)P said, a stupid one.
She then married her current spouse.
"Baby daddy" is often used to imply that the woman is not really attracted or attached to the man who fathered a child.
I think OP is implying that Holmes hooked up with and married the new guy as a cynical ploy to get a war chest for the impending legal actions.
I can't speak at all to Holmes' motivations, but it certainly doesn't conflict with what I read on Wikipedia, or with her apparent ethics.
I said soon to be sentenced.
And words towards 'won't she be in jail through any appeal process.'
But in response to the original comment saying she won't get jail time at all due to appeals, do you think she will not be sentenced and the appeal with happen before then where they disregard this conviction during that process?
Anyway, confusion aside I was trying to politely point out they seem wrong in their assumption she will never see jail due to an appeal process. That's not how the process works.
I think she'll only start serving time once the very last round of appeals ends - which is going to be many years after her death. They'll just Jarndyce v Jarndyce for decades to come.
It's non-violent. Nobody died. I think 5-10 years. Maybe she can be Shkreli's pen pal.
She was peddling non functional healthcare devices and services. People could have died, and she clearly didn't care.
I think their customers just ended up stuck with the bill and had to go to a regular lab.
