Tiger king

[Jumpingforgin]

Aibu to think that Joe Exotic should be released from prison, and Carole Baskin locked up in his place? 😁

Yes, I do think that Doc Antle, James, and Jeff Lowe should be in prison too. I don't think Carole deserves to be in prison though.

I do think that Joe was set up on the murder for hire charges, but he still did it. He absolutely did break the law by selling tiger cubs, killing those 5 tigers, and a hell of a lot more.

Carole Baskin is just as bad and I'm thinking she deffo killed her husband and fed him to the tigers!!!

That Joe is also awful, and the weird mystical doctor

I don't know anything. But that's my opinion.

I mean JFC just look at her wedding videos 🤢

Carole Baskin is just as bad
HOW? Literally HOW? I would genuinely love you to explain...

Did you watch the things Joe did and said about her? The videos? The slander? The sex doll dresses as her? The violent threats he made? the disgusting comments? imagine how frightened you would be if they were said about you.

Joe was set up. He's a crook and a half and should be in jail, but the whole "murder for hire" was a complete set up.
If Jeff and James hadnt gotten involved, I reckon he'd have been perfectly happy making stupid videos about her until the day he died.
Doc Antles weird yoga sex zoo cult definitely needs investigating, and he also needs the jail for killing his tigers when theyre not making him money. Hopefully Joe puts him there.

And through all this, Carole came off worse than any of the guys. She's a walking hypocrite who very very obviously offed her own man for his money for her own shitty backyard zoo, oh sorry I mean "rescue" where her animals look to be kept in worse conditions than Joe's.

Big cat rescue is accredited by the Global federation of animal sanctuaries - the highest global accreditation body for sanctuaries and delivers an excellent level of animal care.

You might want to engage in some actual thinking before you take a heavily edited tv docudrama as fact and start slandering someone who has experienced significant abuse and yet still manages to contribute to animal health and welfare and public education. It makes you look rather unkind.

She might've had it hard.
Still think she's BSC and murdered her husband.

The men in that show are vile and thick as pig shit.

She's still vile but a lot more calculated.

Imagine believing something because Netflix told you so and then calling other people naive

@Veterinari funnily enough, I've heard a lot about Carole Baskin before the documentary came out, and everything I've heard has been that she's nothing more than evil.

Previous poster put it well, all of the blokes on the documentary are idiots. She's calculated, she knows exactly what she's doing and that concerns me even more than the actions of a bunch of morons that think it's cool to have big cats.

I'm astounded that Jeff, the hitman, and James, who were all clearly in on the "murder", got away with no charges,

They made deals. They gave them Joe in exchange for no charges against them.

@Meggie2008
Really? What are your sources? And what did you 'hear' that escaped the global sanctuary accreditation process and the legal system?

The statistic about there being more wild cats kept as pets in America than in the wild across the world just blew my mind.

Regardless of where you fall on the Carole argument.
I think the one thing everyone agrees on from that documentary is that we have all seen solid proof that money can not buy class.

And the memes to come from it have been fantastic.

Aibu to think that Joe Exotic should be released from prison

5 dead tigers in a pit would suggest you probably are, yes.

When the murderous drug lord starts looking like the most normal one amongst them, you know there's some freaky shit going on

Jeff Lowe comes out of this looking like a dirty dirty criminal misogynist. Just scum of the earth. As does his friend, can't remember his name, the FBI informant.

Joe is a complete maniac but somehow I warmed to him by the end, and I definitely think he was set up. He's a total talker so even if he did say he wanted Carole killed he was just chatting shit. He's like an overgrown 7 year old.

Carole gives me the heebie jeebies. Her husband is obviously her 'hero' for taking up the fight against Joe.

All a bunch of nutters. Fascinating.

What about Jeff Lowe! He was absolutely vile and completely set Joe up and took everything he owned.

When they showed his wife Lauren was about to give birth and he told she'll have to get back in the gym ... and the choosing of the nanny 🤮

100% think Carole killed her husband too
