Federal agents have arrested 32-year old pharmaceutical company CEO, Martin Shkreli, who successfully jacked up the price of a single Big Pharma pill from $13.50 to $750. But it seems this gouging of Turing Pharmaceuticals’ anti-infective drug, Daraprim, by 5000% was not Shkreli’s only crime. He now faces charges on securities fraud linked to a firm he founded.

Martin Shkreli, the CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals who increased the price of the AIDS drug Daraprim 5,000%, is having a bad week. A competing pharmaceutical company has announced that it will start offering a generic version of the drug for $1 per pill.
