The legal team for “Tiger King” star Joe Exotic is headed to Washington, hoping to persuade President Trump to pardon the big cat lover next Wednesday.
The star of the Netflix docu-series is serving a long sentence after being convicted of animal abuse and attempted murder for hire. His attorneys are supposed to have what they call a "high level" meeting about their pardon petition on January 6th.
Joe’s legal team believes word of his pardon would turn eyes toward that and away from Biden’s victory.
Congress is set to ratify President-elect Joe Biden's victory that day. There's buzz in Washington that Trump might issue a raft of pardons that day to draw attention away from the vote that will officially signal the end of his presidency.
