martin shkreli

Odds on conviction? Taking bets

I have been kind of fascinated with his case and actually have spoken to him on the phone before. Despite what you think about him or what he has or has not done, the guy really is fucking smart. This is another case where most people are guided by "what feels good" and not reality .

Want to bet a friendly 100 on it ? To win be guilty or innocent on all counts . I will take acquittal on all

He won't do a day in jail, I'll bet any amount of money.

If what he did was illegal, it is so commonplace that no one would allow him to be convicted for fear of a domino effect. He just got burnt for being public and for the retard campaign trying to convince people that he was denying life saving drugs to AIDS patients.

I haven't watched in a while but his live streams were very interesting. The rap thing is a little strange.

You are correct this is guy is fucking smart just a little misguided.

Love friendly bets. But juries usually like to think they are being thorough and fair by finding these guys not guilty on one or two of the lesser charges. I will be he will be convicted on one or more charges, but can't do the whole salami.

hes gonna walk unless there is a mountain of evidence im unaware of.


but yeah i was ready to throw a shoe at him on principle until he basically ended ghostfaces career. that was honestly pretty fucking hilarious.

A conversation with Martin Skreli, now there's a trip report i wanna read. If i have to read another shitty story about falling off a scaffold, or flying to vegas to drink shitty beer im going to lose my shit.

I'll take guilty at even money, friendly bet ofcourse.

Also, interested in a prop bet if possible, will there be any gay/lesbian/LGBTQ non straight people on the jury, if theres anyway to verify that.

Possible over/under on how many black people will be on the jury.

Over/under on how many white people will be on the jury.

Guy's livestream is god. Trimming rogue neckhairs with scissors while he watches House of Cards everyday.

We have a mutual friend and all went out to drinks a few times in NY. The guys is really brilliant in many ways but especially business. He has the ability to pretty much jump into any field and print money. Kind of reminds me of Matt Damon's character in Good Will Hunting.

With that said, his arrogance may be his downfall. Does anyone truly believe he would have been charged had he simply apologized for raising the price of a drug? This case is mostly about another AG trying make a name for himself and be a "hero."

Btw, assuming he doesn't go to jail, i could almost for sure get him on Poker Fraud Alert radio. I think Druff could do a great interview with him.

I'm praying for acquittal. I would actually listen to radio that night.

Minutes before Shkreli would make an excuse to get off the phone with Druff:


-3.5 minutes -125

Shkreli doesnt seem to ever shy away from the hard hitting questions. Seems to embrace the challenge as he truly believes he is doing nothing wrong.

Oh I dont think he would shy away from anything, I just think he would take a hair over 200 seconds for him to realize his time could be better spent playing ps4 while getting skull from a supermodel.

Some guts come up and give you skull right in your hotel room.
Some girls do not give good brain. For others, it's a racket.
Some guys leave Gutfest out of luck and go home with a packet.

Have you seen his youtube videos? He talks for hours to people we would deem not worthy of this forum. The bar is low.

Martin is either very naive and narcissistic, or he secretly has a plan to expose the massive price gauging in the pharmaceutical industry and is willing to risk his freedom to bring attention and possibly reform to the horrendous over pricing in the medical industry, all while trolling the media with this character he's created.........either way he's going to jail lol, guy has no chance.

It's new york, those grand jurors will likely be libtards, he's done.

My gut says full acquittal/not guilty because the case is a bit weak but I hope I'm wrong.

I don't blame him for what he did, it is genetic. Jews can't help themselves when it comes to money. And yes he is a Jew. He tries to hide it but that is what he is.

So what is the punishment? A slap on the wrist seems most likely.

So hard to say. I actually think he gets jail time though.

He claimed to have $30 million in a fund when in reality there was only $300... he's going to go to a resort prison. He will probably be able to work from there.

Whoever is first to successfully market free "Martin Shkreli" gear can make a quick buck.

Best video you will see all day.

He is definitely the best IRL troll ever

Weird case all around. No actual victims.

He scrambled to pay back his investors and was successful. The legal thing to do was to just say to his investors "sorry you guys are fucked, out of few millions", "i'm bankrupt not liable for anything, cya". Instead he made good.

Sure he manipulated them for their own good and in all likelihood just wanted to keep playing as his motive, but the end result was that the "fraud" victims made money.

The pharma thing was never on trial. Mostly because it's legal and a very common practice. It probably shouldn't be but it's much harder to fix. The end result with it was that he made money off insurance companies, but not enough to even raise premiums. Out of pocket costs for patients with insurance were something like less than 10$ a bottle and the uninsured got it for free.

I like nice villains.

If only the insurance company had to pay those artificially inflated prices, it's like insurance fraud. If enough health care industry companies did those, guess who ends up paying for it? Let's look to the auto insurance market for a quick lesson.

The trial was straight out of a "Billions" episode. Shkreli jacked up the price of the drug and then some AG suddenly had a hard on for him. Because of his arrogance, the AG office knew it would get a lot of press so they dug up the dirt. They found something that under normal conditions they would put zero resources toward. Why is no one concerned about the fact he was specifically targeted by a government that simply didnt like him? Had he simply fallen on the sword, apologized for jacking up the price of the drug, does anyone truly believe this case would have even happened? This was more about an attorney general trying to make a name for himself than the crime committed.

With that said, he is now at the mercy of a judge, and while he couldn't swallow his pride before, he probably should do so now and stfu and show some sort of remorse before sentencing.

Billions did provide a helpful reminder as to the arbitrary way cases are litigated.

It's all complete horseshit

Wells Fargo announces Friday it has found a few more phony accounts. Nobody's going to jail.

Literally, no big bank was punished for 2007/2008. Instead they were bailed out and given a mulligan.

The game is the game.

I hope Shkreli parked some loot somewhere. Hopefully, the $ fine is small.

Raising drug prices in general raises premiums. In this case Daraprim isn't big enough drug to matter. It's used few thousand times a year. I think drugs in general are only something like 20% of all healthcare costs.

cmoney why does krypt hate you? You seem nice
