We're back! Daniel Edlin is back on the stand. Prosecutor John Bostic asks him about WSJ's Joseph Rago Sept 2013 article. Theranos' PR guy Jeff Blickman took issue w/ multiple lines in a draft of the article, including calling Holmes a "30-something chemical engineer."

Joseph Rago's article, called "Elizabeth Holmes: the breakthrough of instant diagnosis," ran in WSJ Sept 8 2013.

Prosecutor turns to a May 2014 "to do" list w/ roughly two dozen items of info that Theranos planned to provide @rparloff when he was working on a Fortune Mag cover story on Theranos.

Edlin says Holmes was responsible for multiple items in the "to do" list. Prosecutor points to the purported Pfizer/Theranos study, which has both company's names and logos. Edlin says he doesn't know who made the study or where the doc came from.

Edlin says he communicated with investors and prepared binders for them, which included various docs on the co's bylaws, stock purchase agreements and confidential briefing on Theranos tech. Prosecutor pulls up a copy of the investor binder sent to Rupert Murdoch.

Murdoch's investor binder has a "cost savings" section that says Theranos' tech "yields higher integrity data" & "the actionable info you need 1/1k the size of a typical blood draw." It also says Theranos runs "any test available in central labs and processes all sample types."

The binder also says "Theranos offers tests with the highest levels of accuracy." Edlin says versions of the same presentation was sent to various investors. Shifting topics now to customer complaints...

One complaint from June 2014 involved a patient's inaccurate INR test. Holmes wrote to ex-project manager Max Fosque that "need you to triage this then come to me" and they can figure out what to do. Another complaint was from a Walgreens tech who received inaccurate hcG tests.

Daniel Edlin says he helped work on Theranos' proposals to the military. He says the idea was that Theranos would test the devices in multiple phases with the ultimate goal of using Theranos blood-testing devices and services on soldiers in the field.

Prosecutor points to a Jan 2012 email chain b/w Theranos project manager Dan Edlin and Major Steven Cook about the military using devices over a 12-month period to evaluate the technology. Edlin says at the time "I didn’t know which test could be performed and which couldn’t."

Prosecutor points to a memo given to the military that says "each Theranos device can run every test currently available through the traditional centralized or hospital laboratory infrastructure." Edlin said he assumed the statement was true and had no reason to think it wasn't.

Edlin says "everything in this document was reviewed and approved by Elizabeth." "She was highly involved, any substantive communication I had with the military, I either discussed it with her at the time or I sent it to her."

Theranos' presentation to the military said the devices could be used in Medevac to test and triage wounded soldiers at the time of impact and they had GPS to enable "full operability in the field." Edlin says he doesn't know what became of the devices sent to the military.

The jury is taking a 10 minute break so that the judge can discuss Holmes' objection to introducing Theranos' 2011 presentation to the military. Holmes' atty says it's not relevant to the conspiracy that's alleged in the indictment, which allegedly started 18 months later.
