Dramatic Footage Of Reporters Mugging Martin Shkreli At Brooklyn Courthouse
The last time the frenzied media was mugging an alleged financial criminal with utter abandon took place 7 years ago, when days after the Lehman collapse, respected "fund manager" Bernie Madoff was found to be nothing but a $60 billion Ponzi scheme.
And while we don't know if the emergence of the latest "financial criminal of a generation", America's most hated man Martin Shkreli, who earlier today was arrested and is facaing both civil and criminal charges and up to 20 yeasr in prison, is indicative of another Lehman-like even, what we do know is that a scene such as the one which unfolded in front of a Brooklyn courthouse, where dozens of reporters mugged the diminutive and scandalous figure after he posted a $5 million bond to be released back into society, is something that has not happened since Bernie Madoff's time.
MOMENTS AGO: Martin Shkreli leaves court in large media scrum, makes no comment about his case.

Also earlier the FBI took an opportunity to explain that since there was no seizure warrant at Shkreli's arrest, the infamous Wu-Tang clan album still remains in Shkreli's possession.
#Breaking no seizure warrant at the arrest of Martin Shkreli today, which means we didn't seize the Wu-Tang Clan album.

Ironically, while it took just months for the full wrath of the US government to crack down on Shkreli, Madoff, whose $60 billion ponzi scheme, somehow operated for three decades and had to blow up on its own before the authorities got involved. Odd how that happens.
But who cares about Madoff: when talking about financial criminals of unmatched skill and the highest calibre, there really can be only one.

Whatever happened to the Godly inspired Goldman Sachs who KNOWINGLY sold toxic Paulson credit paper to Merrill Lynch & then shorted its stocks in the great Multi-Trillion Credit Debackle of '07? Are those dudes still in jail?
Fuck em
damn half of my popcorn is gone...has the show started yet?
Gang rape is legal in jail so I hear.
If he had owned a Pu-Tang Clan Album, the FBI woud have seized it.
Wonder how active the SEC will be when Carl Icahn is the Treasury Secretary?
Bill Ackman should move to Switzerland.
Rule of law not being 'applied' evenly....it is only used a political tool. America has hit rock bottom.
"Mugged"? Mugged?!?!?!?!
He needs a fucking tune-up .....
He has no idea what is coming
They are going to make an expample out of this kid , cause he is not part of the Club and he gave them the finger
This kid is going to end up in jail and they are going to make sure he gets raped
And they're gonna change his name from Martin to PATSY!
The reason why we haven't seen anything like that since Madoff is because the SEC HASN'T DONE JACK SHIT SINCE MADOFF!
They only do selective cases to show they are doing some jack-shit's.
Remind me what the SEC did BEFORE Madoff. Thanks.
Right! Only when Madoff had his "breakdown" could the SEC no longer refuse to ignore it!
FREE CORZINE!!
Y
When will a Presidential candidate bring Corzine to justice or promise to "End the Fed"?
And why isn't Hillary in jail yet??? Or is she tweeting from there?
He was about to raise more drug prices as well of new acquired drug. http://hedgeaccordingly.com/2015/12/martin-shkreli-plots-yet-another-dru...
Yeas he is pure evil and perfect chum to stoke and sate our collective two minutes of hate. After we swipe the spittle from our indoctroscreens and the froth from our quivering lips we shall stand united- bathed in true apotheosis. dog bles America.
The Goldman Sachs/Hank the Shank scheme of '07 is now known as QE...a perpetual bailout.
@Itchy
They were 'CHOSEN' to NOT go to jail. That should clear things up.
You can just picture the FBI agents high-fiving each other saying, man, we brought one down today! He's not even a knat on the butt of the elephant that Corzine is. The kid is fucked though because they're gonna flip the lawyer and send him down the river.
Where's Jack Ruby when you need him.
jacob rubenstein
Martin's heartless capitalist acting gig is up, now off to Brazil, Hillary has already made the $$$ transfer. Thanks to Central Casting.
Before arrest, hated CEO Martin Shkreli gave generously to Democrats

Free Corzine!
"Free Corzine?!" LOL
I hope someone with toxiplasmosis working as his butler/chef.
You can do the crime just make sure you wear a suit and don't wag your finger in front of the feds. It's a joke. Look no further than the FBI's tweet for proof of that.
So when are we gonna see the infamous S.E.C. & their henchman securities regulators perp walk all those in the FED & central banking types who created this mess?
When the 'Dome of the Rock' is laid to rubble.
Dude, that's sacrilegious.
maniacal laughter
Is this kid even more hated then the Kenyan? Wow that's impressive!
Maybe I don't give a shit. Maybe I don't remember the last time I blew my nose either. Who the fuck are you, I should remember you? What, you think you like me? You ain't like me motherfucker. You a punk. I've been with made people, connected people. Who you been with? Chain-snatching, jive-ass, maricon motherfuckers. Why don't you get lost? Go ahead, snatch a purse. Come on, take a fuckin' walk. [/Jon "Carlito" Corzine]
OK, so this skeevy little douchebag psychopath is going down for fraud, as he should. But let's keep things in perspective. Let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet. If this little turd were big enough to represent anything, he would have impunity. He makes a hell of a sacrificial lamb, since everybody already hates his smirking ass.
Funny how Boston decided to forgo the Olympics (due to costs) and now are having issues with Casino's as the industry is not doing so well... The Mayor of Boston is depending on international customers to keep the nightmare alive. If you want to piss it away than go for for it, but the people are tired (and too broke) of subsidizing these scams.
As far as the little puke goes pulling this horseshit, (and that goes for anyone who approved useless drug trials ala fraud i.e. global warming)... It will be remembered and that goes for a shitload of lawyers/lobbyists and those who are allowed to insider trade. History will remember you for whom you are and what you did.
Mugging, my ass. That was nothing. Somebody should have shivved him. That would be worth watching. That CNBS clip was crap, as usual.
Somebody should have crowbared that negro.
"Price gouging is outrageous."
What's her going rate for a 30 minute speech at a US university? What a slime ball
I think 'Hill the Thrill' extorts US$350k/per visionary speech per lobbyist!
is that a 3 minute speech or a 5 minute speech?
Ain't it just sooo cute & adorable when the fearless government leader types get serious & accountable about price gouging & monopolistic fascism their voting tax payers have to cover. It's not like prices have exploded for government run Defense, Education, Debt Service, Medicine, or Social Services for the past 3 decades or anything like that?
A side show distraction and hoax. This whole Shkreli (Shrek) story is just another stage show farce. Just like Madeoff ... it was produced by the news/entertainment media for the purpose of making it look like regulators are going after someone. DON'T BE AN IDIOT AND DON'T BUY THESE FAKE BULLSHIT STORIES!
Martin's name has just been changed to PATSY!
CIA, I'm counting on you NOW!
Give this shitfuck cancer!
Give him the bottled water.
Since he's a hip-hop gangsta wannabe, this arrest will give him some street cred with his homies.
This is the scene middle Amerika has to look forward to when .gov comes knocking on their door lookin' for half of their assets!
His arrogance is what nailed his ass.
No he just refused to give Hilly US$350k for one of her special speeches!
i feel so dirty now. yes, skreli's pretty despicable. but i cant help but appreciate that he trolled hitlery. even if it was shortlived.
i guess the one thing you can say about him, is that at least he doesn't pretend to NOT be vermin... unlike h.
There's a good chance if u cross ol' Hill's path yur gonna expire! She has that special way about herself!
Whether or not he 'preteneds' or doesn't pretend to be vermin is irrelevant. He is one, dead, jew.
nah - who knows. he may 'see the light'.. become all apologetic and remorseful, and coincidentally wind up donating many of his millions to the clinton global initiative.
amazing what a little torture can do.
yeah there is so much evidence against him due to his social media sheninigans
theres even a screeenshot of him offering his ex gf $10K to eat her out
lol..
$10k!!!!!!! Now thats real price gouging!!!!!! Especially if there are any cling-ons or dingleberries!
Phewwww ... I'm glad it was just him that was extorting the bloated medical system & not Big Pharma or any of the medical supply companies or staffing unions or insurance companies that have been gouging & cheating!
off topic
I'm betting someone who recently lost a loved one because they could not afford a prescription, will inevitably plunge a stick up this guys ass one day (Ghadaffi style) then proceed to douse him with gasolne and light that fucker.
The special joys & magic of unfettered & unaccountable socialized medicine & health care! Enjoy!
Are the S.E.C. not aware a reckless pork-filled unread US$1.1 Trillion spending bill has just been rushed & passed thru legislation! There's lots of extra $$$ to go around for all price-gougers! Woohoo party on!
NOW do you understand the phrase "financial sociopath?"
It's a generic drug. I could apply to the FDA to manufacture my own right now. Anybody could. and the FDA will be getting back to you about that approval by maybe . . .2020.
Shkreli bought a monopoly product. He has the supply, and the market has the demand. What am I missing here?
Oh, I see . . . 1) he looks and talks like a ferret, and 2) he raised the price 5000%. So, if he would have kept his mouth shut and raised the price only 2000%, then Corzine, Madoff and Ponzi would never have entered into the discussion?
It's a patented drug not generic & the FDA wouldn't be getting back to you until at least 2025 at the very earliest!
And the wreck of you
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03Q65eMp_58Is the break and the fall
I'm the wreck of you
I'm the death of you all
Ya know, I am trying to be proud of the white race since there are so few of us. But! When I keep running into these assholes like Martin Shkreli and Bernie Madoff, I can only drop my head in shame.
What? Having white skin has nothing to do with being evil. I'm white and I sure as hell don't feel any shame that Schkreli is a fucking little punk who needs a shit kicking every day in jail for the next 20 years. Drop your head in shame if you feel you need to. I sure won't... because his behavior has absolutely nothing to do with my skin color. Nor yours. It's all about the color of his soul. Any person from any race can have a dark evil soul. I'd learn the difference if I were you.
Heyyy dontcha know everything is about racism .............................. and global warming!
Some people need to think about these things. Or else! everyone else finds themselves standing there with their pants down.
First of all I am not a racist. Some of my best friends are black or hispanic and I love them dearly.
But know this. In 2014 (60) white children were born to every (1000) white women. More than twice that number were born to blacks, and brown women.
Using that formular, your town will be between 70-80% black or brown in the next two hundred years.
Again! I am not a racist. But the white race needs to make babies rather than our women being fighter pilots and executives or we will be gone from the world.
P.S. There are only 1 billion whites on a planet of over 7 billion.
This means, in 200 years THIS will be gone.
https://youtu.be/rJ9tahGn0IU
I agree with all of that. But that has little to do with your shame of the white race. But you are absolutely right... if we're not careful white will be bred out of existence.
And no worries, your original post did not make you sound like a racist at all. Nor your second one.
I guess he wasn't as smart as he thought he was.
With all that money, why not change that last name Bro?
This guy didn't look too smug this time.
Yea they are gonna run him through the ringer and make an example out of him. Will look real good that they finally have someone to trot out in front of the citizens and claim they are "cracking down on wall street".
Shkreli was flippant, distant, and maybe legit sociopathic, but, put in perspective, is just a small fish amongst a sea of far worse crimes. he seemed to me to be more like a particularly vain case of nerd revenge. at least at this stage...
...meanwhile the endless war on terror and the war to disinform america continues, unabated and mostly unnoticed...

$120,000 per pill? no problem, at least I will be able to meet my ACA deductible this year. It may take a couple re-fills but I will get there.
Young punk just mistakenly getting involved in the 'big boys' racket! Guess who loses?
To understand conspiracy, you have to compare and contrast:
Martin Shkreli
"He is accused of repeatedly losing money for investors and lying to them about it, illegally taking assets from one of his companies to pay off debtors in another." Bloomberg
Cost of fraud = $65Million Retrophin lawsuit
Result = arrested and freed on a $5 million bond
Jon Corzine
"Corzine was appointed CEO and Chairman of MF Global, a multinational futures broker and bond dealer, in March 2010. Shortly afterwards, federal regulators began an investigation into hundreds of millions of dollars in missing customer funds. It was reported that Corzine declined a severance package worth $12.1 million." Wiki
Cost of fraud = $1.6Billion dollars of missing money
Result = CFTC filed civil charges against corzine, stating "Corzine is charged with one count of failure to segregate and misuse of customer funds and one count of failure to supervise diligently".
----------------------------
So Corzine's fraud was x20 larger than Shrek's and they offered him a golden hand-shake of $12Million and the only justice is a court ruling calling for 100 percent repayment to customers of the bankrupt brokerage...which he's appealing whilst basking in the Cayman islands like the slimy lizard he is.
Same in the UK when MP's were caught red-handed with their expenses; few were selected as patsies and were given custodial sentences to appease the unwashed mud-bloods,...however, this was only in category D prisons where you get home leave and it's an open prison/holiday camp.
They're so overtly corrupt, it makes you sick. Shrek was too arrogant with his fraud and even when he owed $7Million to Merrill Lynch, he paid only $1.35Million in a settlement, so he was still being groomed into the cess-pool of corporate fraud. I suspect the pill price hike was a step too far and he had to be shut down.
Loose lips sink ships, especially when they are listing well beyong their plimsoll line; drown you bunch of cunts.
Clinton - Gramm - Greenspan - Levitt - Rubin - Summers: Though they will never admit it, these are the men who thought they knew better than Brooksley Born what was the right trajectory for the field of banking/finance. The Derivatives debacle has yet to come home to roost but when it does there won't be enough Mandrake the Magician dollars to bail out anyone or anything. We're in serious trouble here in the US with this unsound and dishonest money. Most people don't want to know anything about how we get our "Phony Notes from the gang Miss Crabtree money." When we solve the rather large problem of unsound and dishonest money, we'll get back some prosperity, a word not used too often anymore.
Despite the vast, institutionalized fraud on Wall Street, the Feds are only interested in (and.probably only capable of ) targetting this little fish.
Would you do the reporter?
The treatment is different if the fraud is against Americans rather than if it is against another corporation or bank.
Seriously, anyone that votes for Hillary Clinton should have the shit beaten out of them.

The world doesn't know it yet, but he's my son. Martin Fellen. "Shkreli" is his yiddish name.
We raised him right, and plan for him to take over the family business, central banking, once he is cleared of these charges.
$750 per pill? It doesn't matter, most of the goyim have ObamaCare. To them a $750 pill is FREE.
