Shkreli has been a controversial figure in the public eye ever since he hiked costs of Daraprim, an AIDS treatment drug that has no generic option, from $13.50 to $750 per pill overnight in 2015.
The move was met with widespread criticism, including from both then-presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
Here's a look at Martin Shkreli's life, and how he got to where he is today:
