Trials over b*tches: Pharma bro Martin Shkreli threatens to f*ck journalist he stalked if...

Source: Raw Story



In a rambling rant posted to Facebook after closing arguments in his securities case, former Turing Pharmaceutical CEO Martin Shkreli threatened to sexually assault a journalist he had previously stalked on Twitter that led to his banning.

According to the New York Post, Shkreli wrote, “Trial’s over tomorrow, bitches. Then if I’m acquitted, I get to f*ck Lauren Duca.”

Shkreli was banned from Twitter in January after stalking the Teen Vogue editor online, photo-shopping himself into pictures with her, replacing her husband.

Alerted to Shkreli’s comments, Duca responded on Twitter saying she would castrate the diminutive exec — who is already looking at prison time — if he comes near her.

If every time someone said they wanted to fuck someone they could be charged with a crime, the courts and prisons would be overflowing.

Just because a statement is wildly inappropriate, rude, lewd and crude doesn't mean it's illegal.

It's disgusting and meant to get a rise out of her, but it's not even close to a direct threat.

In a similar fashion the walking asshat should fall under a bus.

Look at him... he's a loathsome, hideous man, inside and out. No woman would even get in an elevator if that disgusting slimeball was the only other occupant.

because my computer monitor is part of an all in one system and I don't want the PIA of replacing it right now. They had trouble finding jurors because people would just look at the guy and decide he's a dick.
