Martin Shkreli is under investigation for allegedly using a cellphone from prison

Former pharmaceutical company chief executive Martin Shkreli arrives at federal court in New York in 2017 for the securities fraud trial of Shkreli. By Renae Merle Renae Merle Reporter covering white-collar crime and Wall Street Email Bio Follow March 8 at 3:29 PM The Bureau of Prisons said Friday it is investigating the conduct of notorious former hedge fund manager Martin Shkreli after a report he was using a cellphone from the New Jersey prison where he is serving a seven-year prison term.

“When there are allegations of misconduct, they are thoroughly investigated, and appropriate action is taken if such allegations are proven true,” the bureau said in a statement. “This allegation is currently under investigation.” He was arrested in 2015 and sentenced last year after a federal jury found he had defrauded investors in his hedge funds, including repeatedly lying to investors about major losses.

Not possible in USA prison a cell phone these days

Rumors can’t get a cell phone in there cameras everywhere can make makeshift weapons and guards can bring coke or dope in but otherwise no

Leon87025498 May he rot there.

He’s blameless, but tack on two days to his sentence for good measure.

Wow. He’s like Red Reddington...

Well, I guess we all know where he’s been hiding that cell phone, along with his head.

Prison wallet...

This clown again

It’s that same smug smile Trump shows the world every day. Disgusting.

Hey, they do it on TV all the time. What's the big deal?

he did what all the drug companies do and yet he gets arrested.

Oh, look, the king of the douche nozzles is back.

That must be some crevice he’s got there 😳

and he has a cellphone in prison

thoughts and prayers

*Martin ShCeli

He wanted to fight me one time lol:

Is that why it is called a “cell phone”

Please do NOT tell us where he hides it. Just add a few more years onto his sentence.

I know people on welfare in prison getting phones. That dude is loaded so, of course he can get a phone. No surprise here!

SOMEBODY SMUGGLED A PHONE INSIDE FOR HIM.?

Look at that smirk

LOL, but you don't report the thousands of other criminals doing the same.

I used to DM him I know he is an internet addict, inhumane to keep him from the internet for 7 years that would drive me insane....

My god put this man away...

Khashoggi

What a slimy person.
