Its such a shame that he took that ultimate step. He seemed very savvy legally so its odd that he would commit to taking his own life before even being convicted. He wasn't completely backed into a corner, he had options. That alone makes me think the depression and suicidal ideation existed previously.
- 1000units 8y agoIt doesn't matter. You can't blame anybody for not being Steel like Shkreli. The aggressions of the justice system were wildly disproportionate and unjustified, and the aggressors are responsible for the consequences of their duress.
- VectorLock 8y agoI think his response was more disproportionate than the "aggression" they directed at him. Killing yourself over 6 months in federal prison? Not wanting people to get subpoenaed?
- 1000units 8y agoYes, suicide is virtually always a disproportionate response.
- AsyncAwait 8y agoThey also bankrupted him and threatened him with way more than 6 months. Also, any time in prison for IP violations is a travesty.
