Prosecutor: Shkreli may be slapped with more charges, including securities fraud

His lawyer, Benjamin Brafman, said outside of court, "We don't believe the [superseding] indictment will change anything."

When a reporter asked Brafman whether the government has offered a plea deal, Shkreli's attorney did not answer the question. He instead said,Shkreli said nothing to reporters outside of court. Prosecutors said they have turned over about 70 gigabytes of documents to defense lawyers so far, and that they expect to disclose several more gigabytes soon. They disputed the notion that the amount of evidence was unusual for a white-collar criminal case, and said that any new charges would relate to evidence that already has been turned over to defense lawyers..
