Attorney General Mayes Announces Felony Indictment in Unlicensed Medical Practice Case

PHOENIX — Attorney General Kris Mayes today announced that a Maricopa County grand jury indicted Sayde Shea Holladay on May 11, 2026 on three felony counts related to the operation of a business called SlimSlays.

Holladay faces the following counts:

• Count 1: Fraudulent Schemes and Artifices (Class 2 Felony) under A.R.S. § 13-2310(A)
• Count 2: Unlawful Practice of Medicine (Class 5 Felony) under A.R.S. § 32-1455(A)(1)
• Count 3: Sale or Transfer of Prescription-Only Drugs (Class 6 Felony) under A.R.S. § 13-3406(A)(7)

The indictment alleges that between January 1, 2026, and April 28, 2026, Holladay obtained money, business, or customers through fraudulent pretenses, including failing to disclose that she was not a licensed medical provider, that SlimSlays had no licensed medical provider authorized to prescribe prescription-only drugs, and that the business had no state-licensed medical director providing legally-mandated clinical oversight.

Holladay is further alleged to have practiced medicine without a license and to have knowingly sold or transferred semaglutide and Botox — both prescription-only drugs — without authorization.

Ms. Holladay is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty. A copy of the indictment is available.
