Get ready to once again get reacquainted with the man formerly known as “Pharma Bro” aka a professional douche, allegedly, Martin Shkreli has been released from prison after serving four years of a seven-year prison sentence in Pennsylvania.
According to Raw Story, the man who famously purchased the one-of-a-kind Wu-Tang Clan album for $2 million has been released to a halfway house in New York State and is set to become a fee man as soon as September 14, 2022. Naturally his attorney is more than happy that his client will finally be a free man again though he lowkey deserves to remain in prison for his grimy and greedy ways.
Shkreli’s attorney, Benjamin Brafman, confirmed the release, saying he was “pleased” to report that his client was let out early “after completing all programs that allowed for his prison sentence to be shortened,” according to a statement.
“While in the halfway house I have encouraged Mr. Shkreli to make no further statement, nor will he or I have any additional comments at this time.”
Though Shkreli became famous in the Hip-Hop community for dropping $2 million on the single copy of Wu-Tang Clan’s Once Upon A Time In Shaolin album, Pharma Bro went on to become the “most hated man in America” when he shockingly raised the price of the HIV drug Daraprim in 2015 from $13.50 a pill to $750. A 5,000% increase.
