What is the context for the rest of us?

Joe Exotic was the "star" of the Tiger King documentary on Netflix that caught the public eye during lockdown. It was all anybody talked about for like a year.

Joe badly mismanaged a big cat zoo (tigers mostly) and Carole Baskin runs a tiger sanctuary. He constantly ranted about her trying to shut him down, and he claimed she had killed her previous husband Don Lewis.

Joe is currently in federal prison and running for president again in 2024.

...and he will never financially recover from this
