  + stars: | 2023-03-15 | by ( Christopher Weaver | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
A truck operated by Tracie McCormick, a U.S. Postal Service contractor, was in a crash in Florida in 2020. Postal Service ordered its trucking contractors to immediately notify the agency of serious accidents, a reversal from past practices that will give officials there a new window into the safety records of those carrying its mail, an email reviewed by The Wall Street Journal shows. The email, which was sent Sunday, instructed trucking contractors to report details of accidents on their mail-hauling routes to the agency’s leadership, a change that follows a Journal article examining deficiencies in its safety practices.

For years, the U.S. Postal Service has faced competition from the likes of United Parcel Service Inc. and FedEx Corp. To fight them off, it hired outside trucking companies at cut-rate prices, required them to meet aggressive schedules and then looked the other way when they ran afoul of highway safety rules, a Wall Street Journal investigation found. The result has been deadly. Postal contractors have been involved in at least 68 fatal crashes that killed 79 people in the past three years, according to police crash and inspection records.

SAN JOSE, Calif.—Theranos Inc.’s former No. 2 executive, Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani, was sentenced to nearly 13 years in prison for his involvement in an elaborate fraud scheme at the blood-testing company, marking the capstone of a yearslong saga that is a blemish in Silicon Valley history. Mr. Balwani’s sentencing comes more than four years after the collapse of Theranos, which promised to revolutionize healthcare but peddled faulty technology to patients and investors, along the way delivering inaccurate health results and squandering hundreds of millions of dollars. Mr. Balwani helped lead the deception as Theranos’s former president and chief operating officer, and along with his longtime romantic partner, he became the focus of one of the highest-profile white-collar cases in recent years.

Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos Inc. who was convicted of defrauding investors, was sentenced to more than 11 years in prison, capping the extraordinary downfall of a onetime Silicon Valley wunderkind who promised to revolutionize blood testing. U.S. District Judge Edward Davila, who oversaw the trial in which Ms. Holmes was found guilty of running a yearslong fraud scheme at her blood-testing company, delivered the sentence Friday in federal court. A jury convicted Ms. Holmes in January on four charges that she misrepresented the startup’s technology, finances and business prospects to investors.

Stanley Patrick Weber, seen arriving at the federal courthouse in 2017 in Rapid City, S.D., is now serving a lifetime sentence in federal prison. The U.S. government reached a deal with victims of a pedophile doctor who sexually assaulted Native American boys for decades at federal hospitals in Montana and South Dakota, people familiar with the matter said. Under the terms of the deal, the government would pay between $1.5 million and $2 million to each of eight victims to settle claims that federal officials ignored or tolerated the abuse, some of the people said. In total, the government would pay the victims about $14.5 million, one of the people said.

A Condor Riders truck, pictured in a New Jersey State Police photograph, which was involved in a fatal 2020 crash on the New Jersey Turnpike. To evaluate Amazon’s trucking network, The Wall Street Journal analyzed U.S. Transportation Department unsafe driving scores for trucking companies, which are based on traffic citations, such as speeding tickets, and other violations over the previous two years. The DOT is barred from publishing the monthly scores under a 2015 federal law, but the Journal recreated them using the DOT’s own methodology and publicly available data, including a database of truck inspections. DOT officials provided guidance on the analysis.
