Edmund Sullivan, Shkreli's friend, said on his verified account that Shkreli had been released early from a federal prison in Pennsylvania. The Bureau of Prisons has a secret location in New York where Shkreli will serve his time.
The disgraced pharmaceutical executive was sentenced to seven years in prison for securities fraud. Shkreli was sentenced to seven years in prison after being arrested in 2015. According to CNBC, Shkreli is taking an early leave of absence for good behavior, and will be transferred to a halfway house on September 14, 2022. Getting out of a real prison is easier than getting out of a fake one, according to a smarmy Facebook post by Shkreli.
Picked up a guy who was hitchhiking. Edmund Sullivan said that he was famous and that he was wearing a gray sweatsuit.
The guy who made headlines in 2015 after hiking up the price of an anti-parasitic drug was Shkreli. Shkreli was arrested and charged with securities fraud in December of 2015, and was found guilty of it in December of 2017: He was sentenced to seven years in prison after he was ordered to give up $7.36 million in assets. While in prison, Shkreli spent some time in solitary confinement for trying to run a drug company from his cell, and petitioned for a three month break from prison in March 2020 because he could help develop a covid-19 treatment.
Now that Shkreli is one step closer to freedom, what's next for him? Maybe he could get that album back.
