Shkreli Repeatedly Invokes 5th Amendment at Hearing

[@onthesearch]

It doesn't help that his natural facial sitting is a smirk.

[@yeshwant5875]

ROFL

[@jbizzle4922]

On the advice of counsel, I invoke my Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination and respectfully decline to answer your question.

Ai jus wanna make shure yu understayund, you are welcum to answer our questions.

He forgot to pay off members of congress, and buy ad time on major news networks. Now he's in big trouble.

[@Muffinfordinner]

Being a lawyer looks like an easy job.

[@FATMAN162x]

It technically is, though the learning part is hard. Which is why I didn't get into it. Though id you know enough, you can generally defend yourself in court. But to be full on lawyer law can get real deep and complicated.

Take a shot every time he brings up the 5th amendment lol

2 years to go Martin, stay strong!

[@reggievonzugbach2609]

Well done Martin.

[@anarki777]

Yo, what does that medication have to do with the legal case which has been brought against him? Are they basically admitting that that is their motive?

[@anarki777]

M Dixon I remember the charges brought against him were to do with securities fraud, nothing to do with the price of that medication.

[@anarki777]

M Dixon And it's not illegal to jack the price of Daraprim. So how is it relevant? They're revealing that that is why they went after him in the first place.

[@botdfbvb]

@@anarki777 it actually isn't illegal sadly. Many pharmaceutical companies jack up their prices. Compare the prices between the US and any niche drug in other countries and you'll find that the US always pays a premium compared to other countries. Insurance, and healthcare are big business here. They can't let this cash cow run dry. One sacrificial lamb like Martin is enough to give the illusion to the common man to think that something was done to combat corporate pharma greed.

5th amendment swag!

[@miguelsandoval8203]

The one man to unite Republicans and Democrats lol

[@thesoundofthesuburbs]

Shkreli is the man!

[@karldavis7392]

Obviously Shkreli is a bad guy, but in terms of legal strategy, taking the fifth is exactly right. People get charged with perjury all the time, and nobody wins by speaking out. At least very few win. I would take the 5th too.

[@almontoya5703]

He should have replied every questions asked that is not relevant. That would be awesome! Lol

+Preston Stephens Thanks, but can they still send him for jail? I mean, he didn't defend himself

[@nonamed56]

@@BRVvideos he doesn't need to defend himself. he's innocent until proven guilty

[@vibovitold]

@@nonamed56 this wasn't a court case anyway. it was a Congress hearing. they couldn't prove him guilty there no matter what he'd say (but, obviously, it could be used in the court later on - it's a public hearing. which is why his lawyers rightly told him to shut up)

[@Khanalas]

They could stop asking loaded questions that amount to "Mr. Shkreli, you seem to be a heartless monster, don't you?" and ask normal questions that relate to drug pricing.
