Summary
The Federal Trade Commission has asked a judge to hold Martin Shkreli in contempt for forming a new drug company in violation of a judge's ban on him from working in the pharmaceuticals industry. Shkreli was previously convicted of securities fraud and had his post-trial release bond voided for offering a cash bounty for samples of Hillary Clinton's hair. The FTC is investigating whether his involvement with the new company violates the court's order.
