Now that you’ve seen “Tiger King” you probably have some ideas about Carole Baskin and Joe Exotic’s feud, including the insinuation that she killed her late husband Don Lewis.
Baskin took to her Big Cat Rescue website to refute the claims that she had anything to do with Lewis’ disappearance and also offered up explanations for some of the other things shown in the documentary.
“Don was not easy to live with and like most couples, we had our moments. But I never threatened him and I certainly had nothing to do with his disappearance,” Baskin wrote in a blog post.
