You knew is was bound to happen with this piece of shit. Can't believe it was legal for him to jack up the price of life saving medication like that in the first place. But with a mindset like that it' was inevitable that he'd push his luck too far.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving piece of human filth.

You know this guy is the ultimate cretin when even a whackjob like Donald Trump thinks he's a greedy malicious little piece of shit. The best comment on Twitter today about this was the one that said they should up his eventual sentence by 5000% to match the profit margin he thinks he deserves to make on that drug scam he pulled. Too bad he made bail. It would be more than justice enough if he had to get up close and personal overnight with Moby and Rakhim in a holding cell and ended up with a 10" all-African-American black bratwurst down his throat.

I needed some good news today! I think that he should be injected with a parasite. I'm sure the government has some really nasty weapons grade stuff somewhere in our arsenal. Tell him the cure for the parasite is 5000% of his entire net worth. That would be justice.

Karma.

I'm sure he'll contract HIV in jail.



I've been following this fairly closely. He's been engaged in this scheme for far longer than he's been jacking up pill prices. It looks like the rational for the pill prices was so that he could accumulate enough wealth to pay down all the money he owed that wasn't already written off. Now, whether this was the plan all along, or a last minute exit strategy is yet to be seen.
