Summary
August 23, 2027 is the date Elizabeth Holmes is set to enter the Austin Transitional Center in Del Valle, Texas, according to a Justice Department victim-notification update.
The move places the 42-year-old Theranos founder in a supervised reentry program before her current February 22, 2030 release date from Federal Prison Camp Bryan.
Holmes' prison term was cut in March to 123 months from 135 months after a judge granted a retroactive sentencing-guidelines reduction for offenders with no prior criminal history.
Prosecutors had opposed that reduction, citing victim losses, minimal restitution and lack of responsibility, though the same judge said the cut did not lessen the scale of her crimes.
Holmes' transfer marks another step in the long fallout from Theranos, once valued at $9 billion before its collapse led to fraud convictions and $452 million in restitution.
