Joe Exotic’s secret texts could acquit him of Carole Baskin murder-for-hire plot

Secret texts could reportedly lead to Joe Exotic’s acquittal over the Carole Baskin murder-for-hire plot.

Exotic rocketed to fame on Tiger King while he was behind bars serving his 22 year sentence for plotting to kill his arch enemy Carole.

Now hidden texts have thrown into question whether the reality star gave the alleged hitman Allen Glover a “burner” phone, according to investigators.

Prosecution’s case put forward Exotic had paid Glover for the murder plot and gave him a pizza restaurant phone to communicate on.

However, investigators Team Tiger – who are working to free Exotic – believe new evidence could be the get out of jail card he’s waiting for.

In the mystery texts, it’s alleged Exotic wrote: “F**king Allen stole the pizza phone.”

Previously, Exotic said he never had the pizza phone.

In the 2019 trial, Glover testified Exotic gave him the phone as part of his murder instructions as seen in public court transcripts.

Texas-based attorney for Team Tiger Francisco Hernandez revealed just how these texts could prove Joe’s “innocence”.

He told DailyMailTV: “The text messages that we extracted from not only the cell phones, but from computers that were provided to us from Anne Patrick, the power of attorney for Joe, we know for a fact that these text messages prove Joe’s innocence.

“When you look at the text messages and look where they came from, look where they went to, look who sent them…

“The hitman said Joe gave him the phone – absolutely not. He stole it from the pizza place. It’s a stolen phone. The text messages that we’ve recovered are literally standing up and telling the truth.”

Tiger King gave Netflix viewers an insight into the wild world of big cat park owners who become famous overnight.
