In A24’s crazy documentary “You Can See Everything,” Elizabeth Holmes still maintains her innocence in the Theranos fraud case, despite being sentenced to 11 years in prison. Apparently there are a few others who share his beliefs.
Ryan Elhosseiny, who runs a group called Just Blood, claims Holmes is innocent and that he fixed the failed Theranos blood testing technology. He and several organizers drove a “Free Elizabeth Holmes” cart outside a screening of “You Can See Anything” at the New York Film Festival last week, handing out fliers and Just Blood T-shirts to attendees.
“I rebuilt Theranos technology from scratch using trial exhibits and patents,” Elhosseiny said. Diversity. “Everything Elizabeth Holmes said turned out to be true. This is some of the most incredible technology I’ve ever seen. It’s airtight. Elizabeth Holmes is innocent and needs to be free.”
Famously—or, more infamously, following the company’s collapse—Holmes founded Theranos on the false promise that hundreds of medical tests could be performed with a single drop of blood. As shown in the episode “You Can See Everything”, the convicted founder still believes his technology is perfect. to be It works, but many of the medical processes needed to make the tests work haven’t been invented yet. Now Elhosseiny says Holmes has created a working version of the Theranos test; However, there are no official reports online of anyone actually recreating the technology.
Elhosseiny, who says he is a self-taught biochemist and runs “one of the largest laboratories in the country,” also appears briefly in “You Can See Everything.” Last year, Just Blood made headlines when it put up several billboards in Miami, New York City and Los Angeles. The billboards feature a photo of Elhosseiny and the viral photo of Holmes in a black turtleneck promoting Just Blood. Signs appear in “You Can See Everything,” and co-director Nathan Fielder at one point investigates whether Holmes knew his likeness was being used to promote another company while he was incarcerated.
Despite the lack of official evidence that his Theranos-inspired technology works, Elhosseiny remains steadfast in his belief that Holmes is innocent. The Just Blood website includes a petition urging federal authorities to overturn Holmes’ conviction; At the time of publication of this article, 346 signatures had been collected since it went live last year.
“Ryan ElHosseiny pored over the Theranos case evidence for five years to understand what Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos were really building. In 2026, Ryan and the Super Intelligence powered by OpenAI brought together all the technical records and rebuilt the system, step by step,” the petition reads. “We are asking the appropriate federal authorities to look at all of this technical evidence and re-evaluate what it means for the conviction of Elizabeth Holmes.”
The hanging of billboards and handing out of flyers at the screening of “You Can See Everything” at the New York Film Festival also points to ElHosseiny’s talent as an entertainer; perhaps more than his claimed scientific breakthrough; This, like everything else in Holmes’ orbit, requires a healthy dose of skepticism. ElHosseiny claims that while Adam McKay is in talks to direct an adaptation starring Jennifer Lawrence, there is a filmmaker who has offered $1 million to executive produce an adaptation of John Carreyrou’s novel “Bad Blood.” He also filmed a bizarre, fictional trial trial for a startup called Opreme Films, using “real court transcripts” that he claimed proved the legitimacy of his medical technology.
Another reason why ElHosseiny sees similarities between his and Holmes’ goals? He claims that he was wrongfully convicted, as Holmes believed.
“I was wrongfully convicted of shooting into an occupied vehicle and attempted second-degree murder when all I did when I was being robbed was fire three shots into the air,” he said. “I was wrongfully accused when I was 18. I entered a plea when I was 20 and didn’t reopen my case until 2020. The pain of being wrongfully convicted is a pain you can’t explain. I am now representing myself through this process because no lawyer will take my case. Now I understand why people who are incarcerated often help someone else, because reviewing your case is truly extremely emotional, especially the way I was treated.”
ElHosseiny hasn’t seen “You Can See Everything” yet, but “I hear it’s amazing.” However, he has watched Hulu’s 2022 miniseries “The Dropout,” starring Amanda Seyfried as Holmes, and is having major problems.
“Episode 3 is the biggest lie I’ve ever seen in my life. They depicted him going to the cancer site in Tennessee and the machine wasn’t working,” he said before leaving the interview. “In cancer research, his test came back true. So tell me why you’re playing someone on Hulu who fakes cancer tests. Tell me why.”
