The post includes fiery imagery and warns that those threatening her children's health will face consequences if protecting them requires it.

Story summary
In a recent post on her X account, Elizabeth Holmes, the imprisoned former CEO of Theranos and convicted fraudster, issued an ominous threat against those who she believes have put her children's health and safety at risk. The post included an AI-generated image of a woman resembling Holmes holding a match with a flaming bridge behind her. Holmes, who has two young children—a 5-year-old son named William and a 3-year-old daughter named Invicta—warned that if protecting her kids means burning bridges, she "will burn them to light the way." Holmes began serving an 11-year prison sentence at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas after being convicted on four counts of wire fraud and conspiracy for deceiving investors. She started using X again in September 2025, despite her ongoing incarceration.
