I look forward to the headline that commissary lube shot up 8000% the day he entered prison.

The dude actually grew up poor. His parents were both janitors. I only know this because was mentioned in an article about his arrest.

I thought it was fairly well known by people that did the slightest research on the dude that the play with the drug price increase was a desperate attempt to pay back the people whose money he'd lost at the old fund. The KalaBios deal seemed pretty shady, too.

I'm dreading all the SJWs claiming responsibility for his arrest.

Yep. Weaponize the bureaucracies to punish one's enemies.

His actions caused a "He needs to be punished for something" machine to kick in.


this crossed my mind as well...the possibility of the government putting together some trumped up charges to arrest someone who is unpopular kinda reeks of some shite that a 3rd world country would do...

#Breaking no seizure warrant at the arrest of Martin Shkreli today, which means we didn't seize the Wu-Tang Clan album.

Except that he was being investigated prior to that and he's pretty clearly a crooked motherfricker not just "unpopular".
