BREAKING: What The 'Tiger King' Just Told TRUMP From Behind Bars Has Everyone COMPLETELY Speechless

Next News Network

In this jaw-dropping exclusive interview, Gary Franchi speaks directly with Joe Exotic from federal prison as the controversial "Tiger King" makes his most desperate plea yet to President Donald Trump for clemency. Broadcasting from behind bars where he's served nearly seven years, Joe reveals what he claims is bombshell evidence proving his complete innocence in the murder-for-hire plot that captivated millions during Netflix's phenomenon.

"I'm pleading to be released from federal prison. I haven't done anything wrong," Joe tells Gary in this raw, unfiltered conversation. "I made it 55 years without a speeding ticket, sir, and I've done good my whole life." The interview takes a shocking turn when Joe alleges that Allen Glover, the supposed hitman in his case, has fully admitted to fabricating the entire murder plot – and that this confession is documented on video.


"The hit man admitting that he made it all up. I mean, that's, that's, I don't know what other kind of evidence you need other than he made it up and he admitted he made it up," Joe insists, directing viewers to his website where he claims proof of witness perjury and conspiracy against him sits in plain sight. In a heartbreaking revelation, Joe discloses that both his parents died while he was incarcerated, and he wasn't even permitted to properly say goodbye. "I didn't get as much as be able to say goodbye to anybody. It's like they got on an airplane and crashed in the middle of the ocean and never came back. I didn't even get the decency to be told when they died." Now battling prostate cancer that has spread to his lung and requiring monthly blood transfusions, Joe's plea to Trump takes on new urgency as he approaches his 62nd birthday behind bars.

The Tiger King doesn't hold back as he exposes the shocking realities of prison life, describing how drugs are flown in by drones or smuggled by staff, how inmates use smuggled cell phones and Cash App to conduct transactions, and how the system creates more problems than it solves. "I spent 55 years on the outside without as much as a speeding ticket and I never saw heroin, fentanyl, K2, or Suboxone until I came to prison," Joe reveals in one of the interview's most eye-opening moments.

Joe makes a direct appeal to Alice Johnson, Trump's newly appointed pardon czar, asking her to personally review his evidence. Johnson, who was herself granted clemency by Trump after serving 21 years for a non-violent drug offense, now oversees the administration's pardoning process. "She knows firsthand how the justice system can really screw you over," Joe says, expressing hope that Johnson will advocate for his release.

Perhaps most surprisingly, Joe claims that the infamous feud with Carole Baskin was largely manufactured for entertainment. "Me and Carole never actually hated each other as much as that show made it look like we did," Joe explains. "She made money off of me and I made money off of her. And I never saw the woman in real life until my trial." He describes the Netflix series as a "trash hit piece" that he only saw for the first time months ago while in prison.

The interview also addresses the charges related to tiger euthanasia, with Joe maintaining that his actions were humane and approved by federal agencies. "There was no law enforcement agency on this planet that ever accused me of animal abuse or animal cruelty or anything else," he states, explaining that the tigers he put down were sick and that he followed veterinary protocols sanctioned by the USDA.

If released, Joe says he plans to pursue charity work, possibly testify before Congress about prison reform, and help raise a five-year-old boy as a stepfather. "For my 62nd birthday after seven years in prison and losing everything I ever worked for, including my parents, I would ask for nothing more than to be allowed to return to the free world so I can enjoy the pleasure of helping raise a five-year-old to finish out my life." Whether you believe Joe deserves freedom or belongs exactly where he is, this interview raises disturbing questions about witness testimony, evidence handling, and what Joe claims was a political agenda behind his prosecution.

His allegations that he was targeted to help pass the Big Cat Safety Act deserve scrutiny, and his deteriorating health makes his clemency plea all the more urgent. This is Joe Exotic as you've never heard him before – vulnerable, emotional, and fighting for what he insists is justice long overdue. In the 7 years since his arrest, his zoo has been sold with a "hundred-year contract that it can never be a zoo," his house allegedly destroyed, and his health deteriorating.

Is the Tiger King guilty as charged, or the victim of a massive frame job orchestrated by rivals and government officials? Watch this explosive exclusive interview and decide for yourself if Joe Exotic deserves a presidential pardon.
