Said to have run his company like a Ponzi scheme.

I was delighted when I heard the news that this arrogant, nasty person was arrested.  I guess he shouldn't have brought such notice to himself by skyrocketing the price of a necessary drug for some people, hmmm?

Karma, indeed.  Really couldn't have happened to a more deserving lowlife.  Certainly made me smile!

... plus the price gouging on a life-saving drug.

What a poor excuse for a human being.  I hope he gets max.  I would've liked to be on that jury.

You still have a chance to be on the jury, should there be one

I suspect they started looking into his nasty practices soon after he manipulated the drug cost.  I assume the odds were high of finding unfair practices, and it seems they did.

Are you getting rain tonight?  I hope we get some!

ITA agree about the jerk raising the drug cost.  What a total coward, a COWARD.  He disappeared after he said he would lower cost.  Then he ran whenthe company in California said it would offer the same med for a few dollars.  The securities must have been on to him before the price jack up, but he really called attention to himself at that point
