“Everyone hopes you keep the promises you made during your campaign, which include pardoning everyone sooner than later in January 2025. Some of those very people have been stuck in solitary confinement, forced to live like rats, have killed themselves in prison, or have died. Some, like myself, have fought like hell to hang on, hoping for you to win this election.”

Exotic also wrote that if he’s able to get out of prison, he’d like to become Trump’s Fish and Wildlife Service director. He appears in the 2020 Netflix docuseries “Tiger King,” which turned into a pop culture phenomenon.
In 2019 he was arrested and sentenced to 20-plus years in prison for animal abuse and attempted murder for hire, which stemmed from an alleged murder plot directed at fellow “Tiger King” star, Carole Baskin.
Exotic has denied all allegations. His legal team has also filed an appeal for a retrial.
