Joe Exotic begs Kim Kardashian to get him out of 'hell hole' prison
Tiger King star Joe Exotic is taking measures into his own hands as he took to Instagram pleading for Kourtney Kardashian to tell her sister Kim Kardashian to get him out of "hell hole" prison.
The unexpected plea for help came in the most unlikely of places as the former Netflix star commented the statement underneath a new snap Kourtney posted of her new baby Rocky. In the snap the famous reality star was cradling her baby in matching all-white as the former famous zookeeper hilariously took to the comments asking for help from the Kardashian clan.
Joe's comment which was met with over 7,700 likes, not including either of the sisters, read: "Awwww cute, also please have your sister help me get out of this hell hole." To which one fan responded: "THE TIGER KING HIMSELF." To which Joe replied: "Yeah I'm ready to film my comeback series so need @kimkardashian to push Biden to sign my pardon."

While many found the comment comical, others took it more seriously with one fan raising the question: "Why do you think Biden would pardon you?" To which Joe claimed: "Because I'm innocent go watch the 600 videos at JoeExoticUSA.com/tigertales they all admitted they lied and signed affidavits that have been filed with the courts."
Man in 30s dies after being stabbed in park sparking police probeJoe's reach for legal help comes as the 60-year-old star was previously sentenced to 22 years behind bars back in 2019 for a string of offences including animal abuse charges and a murder-for-hire plot. Joe is currently serving the lengthy sentence after being convicted of two plots to hire two separate men to kill Big Cat Rescue owner Carole Baskin, who also starred in the hit series Tiger King. The zookeeper was also accused of killing four harmless tigers and selling tiger cubs.
Joe has since had one year removed from his sentencing after a federal appeals court ruled that improper sentencing guidelines were used. But Joe is pushing for more as this is not his first time reaching out to Kim who has been previously known to advocate for prison reform during Donald Trump's presidency.
Joe took to asking Kourtney for help as he previously reached out to Kim back in 2020 with no reply. In a letter, Joe wrote: "I know you have never met me and may never want to however I do believe that you hold the values of our justice system dear to your heart. Please help me by just taking 10 minutes out of your life and placing a call to President Trump to look at my 257 page pardon."
