The jailed Joe Exotic continues to hope for his pardon. On Twitter, he now made public that he allegedly had cancer.

Joe Exotic (58), known from the Netflix documentary series “Tiger King: Big Cats and Their Predators”, still wants to obtain his pardon. The former zoo operator has been serving a 22-year prison sentence since 2019 because, according to the court, he commissioned the murder of his archenemy Carole Baskin (59). On twitter the 58-year-old announced that his “PSA value for prostate cancer is very high”. The prison had therefore “approved tests to check at what stage [der Krebs] is located “. An elevated PSA value is only an indication of prostate cancer, but can also have other causes.

Joe Exotic asks Joe Biden for a pardon

Joe Exotic also reported health problems on Twitter: “My body is tired, I’ve lost a lot of weight,” he wrote, among other things. He wanted to obtain a pardon from US President Joe Biden, 78, “so that I can go home and get proper medical care and proper food.”

Joe Exotic had already hoped to be pardoned under the US presidency of Donald Trump (74). Trump had not complied with this request until his last day in office. In his tweet, Exotic asked both President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris (56) to sign “the pardon Trump left behind”.
