Story summary

Tyler Shultz, a former Theranos insider and whistleblower from 2015, appeared on "CBS Mornings" to discuss Nathan Fielder's documentary "You Can See Everything," which offers an intimate look at Elizabeth Holmes in her final days before she was sentenced to prison. Shultz described his shock at the portrayal of Holmes in the film, stating that the woman he saw seemed "almost unrecognizable." He noted that the confident and commanding figure he knew was replaced by someone who appeared broken. Additionally, Shultz criticized a scene where Holmes showed what she claimed was Theranos' blood-testing device to Fielder, asserting that it was not the actual device that had failed quality controls and had been used to provide faulty results to patients.
