Joe Exotic’s Trump pardon efforts win ‘high level’ DC meeting on same day Biden to be certified president
JOE Exotic’s lawyers have secured a meeting in Washington, DC, on the same day Joe Biden’s 2020 win will be certified.
The Tiger King has been pushing for a pardon from President Donald Trump – and his bid recently landed on the president’s desk.

Joe Exotic’s legal team, headed by Eric Love, have been gunning for a January 6 pardon for a reason, as it’s the day when the House of Reprentatives will vote to certify Biden as the next president.
It is rumored dozens of Trump’s associates – and supporters – will be handed pardons on that day to “distract” from the big show in the House.
Joe Exotic, who is serving 22 years in prison after being convicted of hiring a hitman to kill nemesis Carole Baskin, as well as a slew of animal abuse charges will be thrilled to learn the pardon request has “reached Trump’s desk.”

Eight of those charges were in violation of the Lacey Act, which prohibits the trade of organisms attained illegally, and nine were in violation of the Endangered Species Act, which is designed to protect vulnerable species from extinction.
His legal team had been planning on sending Joe Exotic’s pardon request to Trump for months, and are hoping it would be the answer to Joe Exotic’s legal problems.

Last month, a probe was launched into Joe Exotic’s welfare after Love shared concerns about his treatment inside.
Love, the Texas millionaire leading the bid to have the former zoo owner pardoned of his crimes, filed an official complaint in November – setting out his fears that Joe Exotic may die in prison due to alleged poor treatment by staff and lack of medical care inside.
Love alleges that Joe Exotic is not being given sufficient medical treatment to fight his common variable immune deficiency (CVID), which makes him extremely vulnerable.

He also claims staff members at FMC Fort Worth, Texas, have been targeting him unfairly, leaving Love concerned about his friend’s welfare.
Love is worried he could end up dead in suspicious circumstances similar to billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who killed himself in his jail cell.
Speaking from his Fort Worth home, Love told The Sun: “I’m concerned Joe might not make it out, because of his health.”
