Mayhap Trump will join him--- and make it a twofer? Birds of a feather in the absence of ethics department. Maybe they can be in the same cellblock as Madoff. They would be with kindred spirits and could have their own elite prison country club. Who would out con who?

The part I thought was odd was that all of his clients/investors testified that they all made money with him. Some even said that they doubled or tripled their investment.

Okay, but I"m not sure he's the most hated. There's quite a bit of competition these days.

Pardon him? He's very wealthy one-percenter capitalist who loves gouging consumers then laughing about it.

Trump will probably appoint him to his cabinet.

He'll make a great addition to the swamp Trump is building.

Martin Shkreli Found Guilty On Several Counts Of Securities Fraud : NPR

Martin Shkreli was convicted on three of the eight fraud charges he faced and could be sentenced to a prison term of as much as 20 years.
This is ridiculous! A complete overreach!

By the way, every person in US is guilty!

Seriously? Are you defending this jerk?

Every business owner in America is not gouging patients for the cost of a medication they need to survive.

Shkreli is the epitome of what is wrong with the US healthcare pharmaceutical industry.

Maybe someday when you need a medication to continue living, someone will raise the price of it to something nobody, including you, can afford in order to make a killing (no pun intended).

Then come and defend this moron with the excuse that all business owners love gouging (not gauging) their customers.
