Martin Shkreli bail revoked

Imagine that guy as your cellmate.


Just for offering thousands of dollars for someone rip out a handful of Hillary Clinton's hair

Shkreli's bail has been revoked after he posted on Facebook a couple of times offering $5,000 per hair anyone could manage to get from Hillary Clinton.

When he repeated the offer, he wrote: “$5,000 but the hair has to include a follicle. Do not assault anyone for any reason ever (LOLIBERALS).”

According to the NY Times:
“Stupid doesn’t make you violent,” Mr. Brafman said, adding that his client’s Facebook posts had shown “immaturity, satire, a warped sense of humor.”
But Judge Matsumoto was unmoved.
“What is funny about that?” she responded. “He doesn’t know who his followers are.”
 ...
Mr. Shkreli, dressed in a lavender button-down shirt, was animated for much of the hearing, as he had been throughout his trial. But his behavior changed when Judge Matsumoto said that she had decided to jail him, and he sat quietly at the defense table for the rest of the hearing.

After the hearing, two deputy United States marshals led Mr. Shkreli to a holding cell adjoining the courtroom. He will be held at a federal jail in Brooklyn.
