He wrote emails and posted on Facebook, vowing to fire and sue Costopoulos and other executives — and to go federal authorities about their actions, according to the lawsuit.

“If an agency as powerful as the Secret Service voiced concern about Mr. Shkreli’s threat directed at Secretary Clinton, imagine the impact and distress that continuous threatening emails and Facebook posts had on Plaintiff, who did not have the benefit of any protection, let alone that of the United States Secret Service,” the lawsuit says.

Costopoulos said she was fired in July 2017 by a board of directors that was stacked with Shkreli appointments.

Shkreli was convicted of securities fraud in August 2017. He was sentenced to seven years in prison.
