You realize the flee to Mexico story turned out to be fake news and the prosecutors backpedaled?

It did seem to have happened that she bought a ticket though. News stories about her yesterday quoted the judge as explicitly referring to her buying a one way ticket. "Elizabeth Holmes' purchase of a one-way flight to Mexico was a 'bold move,' judge says"

That's a very generous interpretation. Of course it's what her defense attorney stated, that doesn't make it true. The prosecutor did not "backpedal".
