What he called drug research was in reality drug acquisition&#x2F;market research. His spiel about his intention to do real research to improve abandoned drugs is intentionally unfalsifiable because it&#x27;s about FUTURE research he promises to do, you know, some years down the road. We&#x27;re supposed to take his word for it and meanwhile he makes his billions.<p>The reality is that all the executives at Turing were his hedge fund buddies, the investors were other hedge fund buddies and Shkreli made nearly a billion dollars in 3 years with his price-hiking shenanigans. In investor presentations he doesn&#x27;t even refer to Turing as a pharma business nor does he talk about his planned pharmaceutical research, he presented the business as a pharma-hedgefund-hybrid: an easy way to make boatloads of money.<p>This isn&#x27;t what you&#x27;d expect to see from somebody who is passionate about drug research and curing kids, this is what you expect to see from somebody who cynically exploits a system. That internal correspondence (again, subpoenaed) shows they&#x27;re like &quot;lol, sucker&quot; whenever an individual pays the list price for their drugs makes it crystal clear how concerned they are about providing a service to humanity.<p>See e.g. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;democrats.oversight.house.gov&#x2F;sites&#x2F;democrats.oversight.house.gov&#x2F;files&#x2F;documents&#x2F;Memo%20on%20Turing%20Documents.pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;democrats.oversight.house.gov&#x2F;sites&#x2F;democrats.oversig...</a> for some nice quotes
