It doesn't help that his natural facial sitting is a smirk.
ROFL
He forgot to pay off members of congress, and buy ad time on major news networks. Now he's in big trouble.
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.
Sir this is Wendy’s
Being a lawyer looks like an easy job.
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.

I PLEAD THE FITFTHS
@@l1nce777 Objection Hearsay.
@@CatWith-AHat
SHUT UP FITH
@@CatWith-AHat Objectified you cannot make up laws
Take a shot every time he brings up the 5th amendment lol
Me:
If you didn't understand I am dead so I said nothing
2:15 It would’ve been funny if he’d responded to this question with the same “On the advice of counsel” line.
I intend to follow the advice of my counsel not yours!!! Period 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
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?
M Dixon I remember the charges brought against him were to do with securities fraud, nothing to do with the price of that medication.
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.
@@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.
dave chappel the 5th looool
The ears of that guy Gowdy are out of this world.
Well done Martin.
2 years to go Martin, stay strong!
Shkreli is the man!
FIIIF
5th amendment swag!
Scapegoat
The one man to unite Republicans and Democrats lol
He should have replied every questions asked that is not relevant. That would be awesome! Lol
So where were h-
I PLEAD THE FIFTHS
So what happens now.
Awesome
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.
hilarious.
They hated him with all their guts, eventually they locked him up, he stepped on the wrong tails when proposed shady business ventures by the /stop here/
Free shreli, Shreli innoscent
Your constitutional rights are a right, never a privilege.
what can they do about it? Can someone explain?
+Preston Stephens Thanks, but can they still send him for jail? I mean, he didn't defend himself
@@BRVvideos he doesn't need to defend himself. he's innocent until proven guilty
@@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)
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.
👀
the 5th you Fuccing right
legend
#FREESHKRELI He is a hero who need to be cursed so that the big corporations can be exposed.
He'll be a great prag someday. Schillinger's new pet.
Lol nice reference
He'd go to a prison camp tho
First
Not how the 5th Amendment Works, and I am so excited to see this guy go down.
How was it wrong?
that's exactly how it works
@@nonamed56 yes expect its not a privilege its a right
