Drug price-hiker Martin Shkreli arrested on fraud charge

[endotoxin]

Tragic. Really.

[anon55609254]

Sometimes I wish we had three possible results from a trial, “Innocent,” “Guilty,” and “Obviously Guilty As Hell.” And I wish we could get rid of capital punishment, except for assholes like Marty for all the crap he’s obviously done.

Oh well.

I knew there’s something fishy with him.

Think this is true to all corporate elites?

[SamSam]

The ultimate long con.

Shamelessly stolen from a post elsewhere:

“I was going to sell him some sympathy, but the price just went up. Wayyyyy up.”

I’m kind of wondering if there’s a deeper connection here. Like, maybe there was someone behind the curtain saying, “Oooo, I’m going to get you committed of fraud, and for good measure I’m going to totally wreck your reputation! Just watch me!”

Of course, it’s entirely possible that he’s really just a terrible person capable of both committing fraud and doing terrible things with drug prices and the timing is just a coincidence. But it’s been just such a spectacular hatchet job. Monsanto is going to start looking better at this rate.

Anyway, how about a little more variety for those lead pics, eh? You’d think he’s the picture of a respectable businessman at every other moment the way that one pic keeps getting reused. It’s evidently not at all difficult to find pictures of this guy that make him look odious.

I understand the German word is “Backpfeifengesicht”.

I hope he really really wanted to see The Force Awakens and hadn’t seen it yet.

I hope his future cellmate is watching it RIGHT NOW and can’t keep his damn mouth shut.

Oh, come now.

Torture can’t be condoned, no matter what the perpetrator did to deserve it.

[SteampunkBanana]

Torture would be moving in with Jake Lloyd (car theft? Who knows?) who then wouldn’t shut up about how Episode I was actually the best in the entire series.

[Indubitably]

Good.

Posting-Posturing-Pics while hurting people who hurt everyday anyway is cruel, inhuman, and offensive. Bust that prick.

[Indubitably]

P.s. I like what I just did there, please forgive my personal indulgence, my digital masturbation, but reply to self: Well done, Sherlock. Prick busted.

It can be both.

I’m sure he’s a pillar of his community.

Well… maybe a pillar in his community, if everything our christian brethren say is true

For some people, the stocks seem like an understated and merciful punishment:

If only karma could help him feel as miserable as the sick people he’s tried to squeeze for cash

Don’t rush to judgement, I’m sure he’s a pillar of his community.
