Overview
- Justice Department records show Holmes filed the commutation request in 2025 and that it remains under review by the Office of the Pardon Attorney.
- Holmes confirmed the filing on X, asserting she is fighting for her innocence and referring to the "weaponization" of the justice system.
- She is incarcerated at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas with a Bureau of Prisons release date of Dec. 30, 2031, following an 11-year, three-month sentence for 2022 fraud and conspiracy convictions.
- A federal appeals court last year upheld her convictions and the $452 million restitution order shared with former Theranos president Ramesh "Sunny" Balwani.
- A commutation would reduce or eliminate remaining prison time while leaving the conviction intact, whereas a pardon could waive the restitution, according to the coverage; the White House declines to comment on clemency petitions.
