That is what you get for ripping off rich people. He should have stuck to taking poor people's money instead.

Because he was loud and obnoxious about something they usually try to get away with under the radar.

Very much so. Every one of his investors ended up making profits, and some of them even defended him when the charges were first made. Without his amusing internet persona and high profile he probably wouldn't have been targeted for prosecution at all.

This is all completely correct.

You have to remember that one of the things got him in hot water was making a crack about needing Hillary Clinton's DNA to confirm her being a reptilian.

Even the whole "jacking up the price of AIDS medication" story was basically bullshit. The only peple who he screwed over were health insurers.

I thought he was using all his companies has a ponzi type scheme where he'd take money out of one to pay debts and hide losses of the other and so on? Are you saying he didn't lose a ton of money for people doing this?

He'll likely end up at FCI Englewood in Colorado which is where Jared Fogle and Rod Blagojevich are. Minimum-security and much more comfortable than where he is being held now (which is a loving hellhole that smells of piss, disinfectant, is overcrowded, violent and has no windows.

He was the first that raised prices to a range that inarguably would kill a lot of people. Doubling the cost of insulin is different than raising it 10000%. All of society thought it was an evil thing to do, and courts are made up by society.

Yeah just a reminder though he didn't get in trouble for this at all and this conviction is about defrauding other rich people (who still made a boatload of money anyway).
