Andrew Wiseman wins the day with this hilarious Freedom of Information Act Request.
It’d be amazing if this crazy thing ended up online, in torrentable form: the Wu-Tang Clan’s double-album “The Wu – Once Upon A Time In Shaolin,” recorded in secret over the past few years and recently purchased by the recently arrested pharma douchebag Martin Shkreli.
UPDATE: Alas, it wasn’t meant to be. FBI tweets “no seizure warrant” for arrest.
#Breaking no seizure warrant at the arrest of Martin Shkreli today, which means we didn't seize the Wu-Tang Clan album.

If I do get the album, I'll have a big party at my house, release it for free and ask people to donate to charities like @TheMissingMaps
