'Tiger King': Jeff Lowe claims Joe Exotic had sex with animals in the zoo, fans say its' totally believable
After the internet exploded into a frenzied uproar about Jeff Lowe being hired by Carole Baskin to frame her arch-nemesis Joe Exotic for murder-for-hire charges, Lowe has now claimed that he has found footage of Joe, 57, and his husband having sex with a tiger. The zookeeper and Joe's former business partner made the bizarre claims during an 'Ask Me Anything' session on Reddit.
During the session, a user asked Lowe, "Hey Jeff! I was wondering what (if any) weird S**T have you found out about Joe Exotic since he’s been incarcerated randomly around the park?” And resuming his ongoing smear campaign against Joe (real name Joseph Schreibvogel Maldonado Passage), Lowe didn't hesitate to answer: "I think the weirdest thing we found… was a flash drive of Joe and (his ex-husband) and they were having sexual relations with animals in the park."
So far, allegations of this sort were only hearsay even though Joe is currently serving a 22-year sentence in federal prison for allegedly hiring a hitman to kill Baskin, who fought ardently to have him incarcerated for his treatment of big cats and other animals. Their entire saga became famous in the public eye through the Netflix docuseries 'Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness'. Lowe, 67, ended his answer with: "Thanks for the disturbing question.”
Soon, the claims spread like wildfire on the internet, with fans flocking to Twitter to express their shock over the news.
One of them shared: "Can we all agree Tiger King references are no longer funny now that we know joe exotic was filming ppl having sex with the animals???????" Another fan said, "Joe Exotic's psychopath behaviour is finally being talked about. It was long overdue tbh." A third fan resonated with similar sentiments, sharing: "y’all really watched tiger king and only felt the need to talk about Carol Baskin? not Doc Antle’s sex cult or Joe Exotic being a predator? alrighty." But there was flak as well, as a critic pointed out: "Who is this guy and why should I care? Because I TRULY don't care about 'Tiger King' — if that is his real name!?!"
The feud between the two began when Joe, 57, sued Lowe for $94M for allegedly setting him up in the murder-for-hire charges, and ever since, Lowe hasn't shied away from accusing the disgraced big-cat aficionado of pretty much everything — from hiring male escorts to burying the bodies of protesters on his zoo-grounds.
Lowe, who took over Joe's zoo, has also claimed in an interview with comedian Joel McHale that there's no doubt over Baskin having killed her multi-millionaire ex-husband, with whom she had co-founder The Big Cat Rescue organization. And snubbing all conspiracy theories of him being her first husband whom she hired to frame joe, he said in the Reddit session: "If I was stuck on a deserted island with (Baskin), I would f**k a coconut." He also scoffed: "I’ve seen the side by side pictures. It looks more like John (Finlay) and Joe’s (Exotic’s) love child.”
Baskin herself has snubbed all theories of her having fed her ex-husband Jack 'Don' Lewis to her big cats after he mysteriously disappeared on a trip to Costa Rica.
In a blog post, she called the theory the “most ludicrous of all the lies". But trust social media to stand their ground as they tie the red strings of all loose ends together. Claiming all of this was done in a bid to take over Joe's zoo, and citing how all of Baskin's attempts to shut Joe's zoo down stopped when Lowe took over, a fan shared: "Hear me out: Carol’s 1st husband is ‘Jeff Lowe’ — con artist. He & Allan (Joe Exotic) kill Don (Jack Lewis). Carol pays them money she inherits. Yrs later Jeff frames Joe for Carol, both get off, cover up yrs of coercing, they take down all the Tiger Kings & build the world’s biggest attraction (sic)."
