Martin Shkreli was sentenced to seven years in prison and three years probation, yet his notoriety continued behind bars. Shkreli reflected on his sentencing, expressing that he was initially threatened with up to 27 years. While incarcerated, Shkreli made headlines again for selling a rare Wu-Tang Clan album, "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin," for $2.4 million to an anonymous buyer. This album later changed hands, eventually being purchased by the collective PleasrDAO for $4 million. Shkreli has contested the intricacies of whether PleasrDAO truly owns the album. Fast forward to 2024, PleasrDAO has sued Shkreli, alleging he publicly played the album, an action they claim is illegal. Shkreli dismissed these allegations, explaining that he had played the album multiple times, both before and after the sale.
