Tiger King’s Carole Baskin is thankful that Joe Exotic did not receive a pardon from President Donald Trump. The star told BuzzFeed News how she felt about the situation. Last night, just hours before leaving office, he decided to pardon a number of people including multiple celebrities like Lil Wayne and Kodak Black. However, one name that people thought might get the pardon treatment was the Netflix star. His attorneys had been rattling the cage about this exact outcome since the show became a nationwide obsession midway through 2020. But, when the moment of truth came, the former big cat mogul’s defense team were left to explain it to the public. A private investigator aboard that effort, Eric Love, was sincerely convinced that the pardon would materialize.
