Elizabeth Holmes tried "to flee the country" after conviction, prosecutors say

• "The government became aware on January 23, 2022, that Defendant Holmes booked an international flight to Mexico departing on January 26, 2022, without a scheduled return trip," the court filing obtained by CNN states.
• "Only after the government raised this unauthorized flight with defense counsel was the trip canceled."

Zoom in: Holmes was sentenced to 11 years and three months in prison last November but has appealed her conviction.

• Prosecutors argue in the new filing that she should begin to serve her prison sentence instead of living on an estate while her appeal plays out in court.
• In the filing, prosecutors claim Holmes has not shown convincing evidence to indicate that she's not a flight risk, as her attorneys have previously argued, CNN reports.

Of note: At the time, Holmes’ attorney said the flight was planned before the verdict so that she could "attend the wedding of close friends" if there was a different outcome in the case, per Rolling Stone.

What they're saying: "There are not two systems of justice — one for the wealthy and one for the poor — there is one criminal justice system in this country," prosecutors said in the filing.

What's next: Holmes is expected to turn herself into custody on April 27.
