50 Cent is continuing to fall from grace after receiving the backlash from making fun of an autistic airport worker. Well now it looks like Martin Shkreli has stepped in to add fuel to the fire!
Its no secret, Shkreli isn’t the most liked pharmacist in the world especially after he raised prices on life saving drugs for Aids and Cancer patients but ironically he has stepped up to do a good deed for Andrew Farrell. According to TMZ, Shkreli contacted Farrell’s family and opted to donate $10,000 towards Autism Speaks, an autism advocacy group.
For those who don’t know the family had initially asked Mr. Jackson to donate that amount to the same group but as of now has yet to hear back from him. Apparently this story touched Shkreli because he has many friends and relatives dealing with autism. He says that he has been trying to develop new treatments for people suffering from autism as well.
The money will be used to start a GoFundMe campaign, hopefully it won’t cut back on his legal finances because he has been recently hit with a new indictment! CNN Money reports,”He’s been accused of illegally siphoning money from one of his companies to another to pay off bad market bets made by one of his companies.”
Yikes! Lets chat below!
