Martin Shkreli, the former pharmaceutical executive who is awaiting sentencing for a fraud conviction, was sent to jail on Wednesday after a federal judge revoked his bail because he had offered $5,000 for a strand of Hillary Clinton’s hair.
Mr. Shkreli’s online offer last week prompted prosecutors to request that his bail be revoked — and the Secret Service to investigate. “On HRC’s book tour, try to grab a hair from her,” he wrote, referring to Mrs. Clinton. “Will pay $5,000 per hair obtained from Hillary Clinton.”
At the hearing in Federal District Court in Brooklyn, Judge Kiyo A. Matsumoto said that Mr. Shkreli’s post could be perceived as a true threat. Read more at New York Times.

This is absurd. This takes the meaning of “double standard” to a new level.
Snoop Dogg can shoot President Trump, but nothing happens! He’s black so the secret service is not allowed to go after him because of racism. Madonna can threaten to blow up the white house but nothing happens. She is a card carrying member of the lgbt community so you’re not allowed to discriminate. Johnny Depp threatened to assassinate Trump and nothing. Kathy Griffin beheads Trump and nothing. Charlie Sheen, Mickey Rourke, Adam Palley, etc, etc… Trump, being a white heterosexual male, is fair game for whoever desires to threaten or incite. But Hillary, being a poor downtrodden abused female, oh that’s it. Now a line has been crossed. The secret service is corrupt and biased.
Don’t give bill any ideas. He may cut off strands of his wife hillareys hair and sell it on ebay.
That was a good one LOL!
Hillary Clinton, the biggest criminal in history is still roaming freely, while someone looking for her hair is jailed!!! What a MESHUGENE justice system. This will surely make the top story in the Believe it or Not book. You can’t make this up.
Dor ikesh u’petaltol – a perverse and crooked generation headed by warped and corrupt judges.
Who touches a hair of yon gray head
Dies like a dog! March on!
