## Background

***And there's no time***

***to change your mind***

***The Son has come***

***and you've been left behind***

**Joseph Allen Maldonado-Passage** (né **Schreibvogel**; born March 5, 1963), known professionally as **Joe Exotic** and nicknamed "**The Tiger King**", is an American media personality, businessman, former chief of police, and convicted felon who operated the Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park (also known as the G.W. Zoo) in Wynnewood, Oklahoma, from 1998 to 2018.

Born in Kansas, Exotic and his family moved to Texas, where he enrolled at Iowa Wesleyan University. After graduation, Exotic briefly served as the chief of police in Eastvale. He then opened a pet store with his brother, but after his brother's death in 1997, Exotic sold the store and founded the G.W. Zoo. During his tenure as director there, he also held magic shows and cub-petting events at venues across the U.S., hosted an online talk show, and worked with producer Rick Kirkham to create a reality television series about himself, but this latter effort ended when most footage was destroyed in a fire in 2015.

Exotic left the G.W. Zoo in June 2018 and was arrested three months later on suspicion of hiring two men to murder Big Cat Rescue founder Carole Baskin, with whom he had a complicated rivalry. In 2019, Exotic was convicted and sentenced to 22 years in prison on 17 federal charges of animal abuse and two counts of attempted murder for hire for the plot to kill Baskin. In 2021, he worked with attorney John Michael Phillips to file a motion for a new trial, and on July 15, 2021, a U.S. appeals court ruled that the convictions for the two murder attempts were wrongly treated as separate. The trial court reduced his sentence by 1 year, resentencing him to 21 years in late January 2022.

Exotic has an eccentric personality and has been subject to substantial criticism, especially for the controversies surrounding his feud with Baskin and the treatment of animals at the G.W. Zoo. Exotic has been featured in several documentaries, including the Netflix series *Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness* (2020–present), a documentary about Exotic's career as a zookeeper and his feud with Baskin. The success of the first season of *Tiger King* amid the worldwide COVID-19 lockdowns led to Exotic receiving attention on social media and inspiring several internet memes. Exotic also appears in two Louis Theroux documentaries, *America's Most Dangerous Pets* (2011) and *Shooting Joe Exotic* (2021).

## *Tiger King*

First it must be stated that Carole Baskin, as all residents Land o' Lakes know, murdered her husband and destroyed the evidence by feeding his corpse to the tigers at the big cat rescue in Hillsborough. But this story is not about Carole Baskin.

The Gang took an interest to Joseph Allen Maldonado-Passage (Joe Exotic) after the release of the Netflix documentary *Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness.* during an undocumented "Boys Night" event shortly after the release of *Tiger King*, the Gang viewed nearly all of the Netflix documentary in one night, this seemingly innocuous bit of fun between several of the Colorado Gang and the Florida Gang secretly gathered a large and potentially exploitable amount of Malevolent Energy, and it all gathered around the growing TV and Internet personality that they saw kinship with in the struggle and myriad mental instabilities latent inside the dear protagonist Joseph Maldonado-Passage.

In this they also saw a potential target.

***I'll engrave these words onto my "Nuts" so I won't forget them. What is most necessary is "courage"; I must have the courage to destroy my nuts momentarily. As they disintegrate, my nuts will absorb the souls of the 36 previous busters of the brass bus and will give birth to something utterly new.***

***Whatever is born will "bust". It will show interest in the 14 phrases that my trusted friend will utter... My friend will trust me and I will become his "GoVrd Walker".***

***Lastly, I need an appropriate location. North latitude, 28 degrees, 24 minutes, West longitude 80 degrees, 36 minutes...***

***Go there and wait for the GoVrd walk to sound...***

***That's when Wormwood will come."***
