That increase sparked outrage from US lawmakers and patients,and earned Shkreli the nickname'Pharma bro.'
The charges stemmed from his career before Turing,as chief executive of Retrophin and manager of hedge funds MSMB Capital and MSMB Healthcare.
Prosecutors claimed that between 2009 and 2014,Shkreli lied to MSMB investors,lost their money and paid them back with cash and stock misappropriated from Retrophin.
Jurors heard testimony from several MSMB investors who said Shkreli falsely claimed to have an outside auditor and tens of millions of dollars in assets,sent them fabricated account statements after losing their money and became evasive when they asked for their investments back.
