Tiger King Joe Exotic has aggressive prostate cancer and says Carole Baskin will 'have party' after diagnosis
TIGER King star Joe Exotic has asked for an early release from prison after confirming he has an "aggressive cancer" attacking his prostate – as he insisted Carole Baskin will be having "a party" after his diagnosis.
The controversial Netflix star, currently serving time in a federal prison in Texas for a murder-for-hire plot, has asked for a compassionate release from the high-security facility.
"It is with a sad face that I have to tell you the doctors called me in today to break the news that my prostate biopsy came back with an aggressive cancer," Exotic wrote on Instagram.
Exotic explained he was detailing the diagnosis not in an attempt to gain people's sympathy, but to ask for the judge in a compassion argument.
He also explained he thinks animal rights activist Carole Baskin will have a field day over his diagnosis.
"I am still waiting on the results from other test as well. Right now I don’t want anyone’s pity and I’m sure Carole Will have her own party over this!"
"What I need is the world to be my voice to be released, they have the proof I DID NOT DO THIS!"
"And there is no reason for the district attorney to drag this out, so I can go home and get treatment on my own or enjoy what life I have left with my loved ones! Say a prayer everyone & be my voice."
Accompanying the caption is a photo of Exotic holding a tiger cub with the words "Carole will have a party over this" followed by a second photo of a handwritten note reading his caption.
Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage, was sentenced to 22 years in federal prison in January 2020 after his attempt to kill Baskin.
They both were featured heavily in the true-crime Netflix series revolving around each other's escapades.
Season two of the series starts on November 17.
