• 1:40
  Speaker 3: for y'all. You know uh, twenty nineteen Netflix documentary The
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Tiger King Pluto up. I remember I was in Red Onion.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: I was instilled in the hole before, right before I
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: got released to the m zip pod and started working
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: my way off mountain. You know, I remember, you know,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: seeing everybody talking about it, the CEOs, the inmates, people
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: on the street, the news media, entertainment, television shows, the
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: talk show hosts. It was twenty nineteen, was the year
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: of the Tiger. That's just what it was. And now
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: straight from a federal prison in Texas, Tiger King's on
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Red on your end. We wanted to set it up
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: to where me and him was on the phone on
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: a three way call, just doing what we do, talking,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: asking questions, you know, me explaining to them what the
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: state system's like, him explaining to me what the fed
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: system is like. Unfortunately, though, we couldn't do that simply
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: because of prison regulations and rules. I'm applying for a
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: conditional pardon with the state governor. Tiger King is applying
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: for a pardon with President Trump, you know, and he
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: addresses that, you know, when a little thing to to
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Trump and why he should be pardoned, and so on
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: and so forth, and we couldn't risk institutional charge. Unfortunately,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: with that would have been awesome, you know, that really
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: would have been cool just to be able to talk
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: to him because he is a character like that boy
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: has personality for days. So my editor stepped up. They
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: talked a little bit, and uh, we let Joe. We
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: let him. We let him say what he was going
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: to say. We hope you enjoy it. Have it, joke,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: take it Okay?
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Well, my real name is Joseph Maldonado. Everybody knows me
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: as Joe Exotic from the movie Tiger King, which was
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: nothing but a uncle junk bavocated in order to pass
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: an animal rights law.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: Was born in Garden City, Kansas. I grew up in Wyoming.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: I was a police chief in Texas. At the age
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: of nineteen, me and my brother owned a pet store
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: in Arlington, Texas. He was killed in ninety seven.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: That's when I.
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: Moved Oklahoma and started the Sanctuary in the Zoo with
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: my mom and dad. And twenty three years later here
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: I am in prison for nothing.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I am currently the Federal Medical Center in Ford, Texas
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: with lung cancer and prostate cancer and my blood disease
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: that I was born with I'm currently on appeal. I've
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: been on a pill for two and a half years
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: waiting for the slow ass system to decide what they
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: they are going to give me a new trial or not.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: It's over one thousand exhibits of new evidence because Jeff
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: and James and Allen, they all testified against me. Has
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: since then turned over their cell phones, which we obtained
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: over seven hundred phone recordings and videos and text messages
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: of the federally just telling them how to lie during
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: my trial in order to convict me, because everybody thought that,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: you know, they were just going to put me in
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: jail and take my zoo. Well, you know, they put
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: me in jail and they took my zoo, and then
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: the FEDS and Peter and Carol turned on them and
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: took it away from them. So they got all pissed
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: off and turned over their cell phones with all this
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: evidence on there, and they did video depositions the lawyers
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: have put on my website of them admitting to perjury,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: uh and and fabricating evidence in order to pull this
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: all off. So uh, unfortunately Joe is the one paying
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: the price. Nobody's been charged with perjury. Nobody's been charged
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: with conspiracy to commit murder because the hitman Allen even
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Hell on World Television on season two at Tiger King
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: admitted that he took the film people and my lawyers
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: to zoo and showed them where he hit them a
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: murder weapon in the woods where their original intention was
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: to kill me in order to get the zoo. So
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: everybody's walking free with me. I I we have a
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: good feeling about.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: My This call is from a federal prison.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: The new evidence. But you know, you're up against a
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: system that's corrupt as hal you know, do they want
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: to let this this case? You know, do they want
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: to let me win? Absolutely not, because they don't want
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: to lose that that conviction. But it's no different than
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: President Trump. You know, they indicted him ninety four times.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: You know, if a president can't be an indictment in
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: thirty four convictions? The hell am I supposed to?
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: You've been dealing with a lot of health issues over
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: the years, So how have you found the healthcare system
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: there inside the federal person?
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: It's pathetic, I said it sick going yesterday for five
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: hours waiting to have my chance to talk to a
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: doctor and find out about these migraine headaches from all
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: of this that I'm going through, and they what's their
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: inser get some ibuprofen or talin off the commissary, that's
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: their excuse. Dude. I watch people die in here every week.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: They don't care because they're just gonna fill the bed
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: with somebody else.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: This call is from a federal prison.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: But the thing that I'm waiting to see if it's
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: gonna happen, because you know, Savannah Chrisly was on TV
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: complaining and moaning and bitching that her parents were so
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: mistreated in federal prison. Todd Christly got in trouble because
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: he had a cell phone and took bishers and turned
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: them over to think it was Chris Como, you know
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: on the news. I want to say, now that he
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: got a partner and he's out there, is just going
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: to shut up and go free and forget what he
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: lived through and what one hundred and sixty five thousand
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: other people are living in. Or is he gonna stand
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: up and be honorable and say, look, man, President Trump,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: this is what's going on behind closed doors. You know
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: they're selling drugs. Shit, there's moldy. The buildings are falling, apart.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: I want to see if the man will stand up
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: and be honorable, or if he's just gonna do like
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: nobody else, to take the parten and forget this ever happened,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: because I damn sure ain't if I make it out
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: of here with a pardon or a community my sentence,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: or if I have to serve my whole sentence, I'm
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: gonna testify in front of Congress, and we're gonna tell
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: the American people what the hell really goes on in here.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Nobody ain't got a clue. You know, I've been down
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: eight years now, and I made it on the street
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: fifty five years without ever seeing heroin Fenning on K
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: two or Sebastian until I come to prison. There's more
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: drugs in here than there is in the entire county
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: of Darvin County, Oklahoma, where I lived. And if you
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: can't keep them out of a fence in fed to prison,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: you just will give up on that border.
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: You know, Randy's done over thirty years in solitary confinement.
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: I know you've done a little bit of time yourself
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: in solitary. Can you tell us what that experience was
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: like for you?
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: In the first two years from September seventh of twenty
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: eighteen to March the twenty fifth of twenty twenty. I
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: was kept in solitary confinement, so I couldn't call no one,
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: I couldn't see no one. I couldn't help build my case.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: I couldn't help fight my case. I couldn't help get
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: real lawyers, so I was forced to use public defenders.
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: It only came and see me four times, okay, and
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: they developed their own story and just threw me to
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: the wolves. During my trial, while I was in solitary
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: confinement at this federal holdover, which was a county zil,
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: I was stripped, naked, tied in a chair, put in
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: a shower so long that the skin came off my
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: arms from simply doing nothing but pushing the intercom. But
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: and wanted to know why the hell I was in
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: solitary confinement.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Two years and eight months. It should be illegal. It
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: is the coolest fucking thing that you could do to anybody.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: You can't do that to an animal in my zoo.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: If I would have had a chimpanzee locked in a
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: cage by itself, couldn't see anybody, couldn't you know I would,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: they'd they'd hunt hang me man for for animal cruelty.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Why can we do that to a human being? And
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: then you're gonna expect them to go out and transition
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: into society and not hate people or be mentally fucked up.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I do. I hold some grudges
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: against my government for what they've done to me. Yeah,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: but you know, I'm strong willed, and I promised myself
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: several things. That one is, I'm not going to become
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: an inmate. I've been in here eight years and I
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: haven't touched any alcohol, drugs or smoke a cigarette because
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: I'm just I'm not okay. I'm gonna walk out of
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: here a new person clean. Uh, everybody on Tiger King
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: can kiss my ass. They're not They're not even gonna
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: be a thought to me. Because I have whatever little
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: time I have fighting two types of cancer, I am
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: going to spend with my husband, whether it's in Mexico
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: or America. But but solitary confinement should be illegal. Every
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: politician should have to spend thirty days in there to
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: become a politician, and they should have to spend thirty
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: days eating the food we eat in here, you know,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: because look there's there's people I've I've been at the
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: federal hospital. You know, I'm at a federal medical center. Dude.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: There's people in here that don't even know they're alive, okay,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: and and they're still in prison.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: The taxpayers are paying the bill. Why where is the
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: money train at in this system? Because there's so many people.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: When I was in Buttoner fighting cancer, they would wield
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: the people's whole bed down for cancer treatment because they're vegetables.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: But they're still giving them cancer treatment. Why are we
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: doing this in America?
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: Why is this happening?
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: So?
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: I know that you recently got married, and Randy wanted
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: me to congratulate you on that for sure, But yeah,
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: I know there has been some kind of situation with
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: your husband recently being deported. Can you tell us about
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: that and what's going on with your husband right now?
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: You know they he was We always knew that he
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: was scheduled to be deported. He was supposed to have
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: a detention hearing a couple mondays ago. They picked him
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: up on Friday morning at seven o'clock and they took
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: him straight to Mexico. So over a weekend they had
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: him in Mexico by Saturday mornings, so they didn't have
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: to worry about the court system. You know, because you're
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: already in Mexico, can you fight to come back? Screw that?
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: You know, he's he's safe at his aunt house in Mexico.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: I talked to him a couple of times a day
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: every day. He's doing good. Apparently he's you know, he's
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: got my passwords to my social media and he's out
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: there doing live videos trying to get me home. You know,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: I don't care if we have to ask for the
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: President of Mexico to help make this call to Trump
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: to let me out. I want to get out so
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I can take him up on his offer, and that
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: is I'm going to go to work, and the first
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: five million dollars I make, I'm gonna buy a gold
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: card for George to come back to America the right way.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: If it takes five million bucks.
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: That's great. That you have them out there fighting for
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: you and advocating for you like that.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, the Christal's had their daughter, you know,
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: on TV every day. Britney Grinder had her wives on
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: TV every day to get get out of Russia. You
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: know that these people all have somebody advocating for me
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: out there. I have nobody. All my all my people
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: are dead since this has happened. And anybody that we're
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: friends of mine is too scared to get online and
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: fight for me and get on TV and fight for me.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Because everybody that that does the government witnesses that testified
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: against me, come after them. You know, where where is
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: witness tampering? Even in my case?
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: If you were able to speak to President Donald Trump,
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: what would you say? What's your what's your message to Trump?
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Well, you know he's part of and Larry Hoover who's
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: been in prison a long time, you know, and he
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: pardoned the sheriff because his mom attended a million dollar
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: play dinner for somebody. And you know, he just partoned
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: the Chrislies who literally stole money, you know, and as
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: fraud you know, and pled guilty. Uh you know. But
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: what he does is his business. But what I would
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: hope he would do is to stand for some justice
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: for us poor people that that they haven't got money
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: to throw around or elbows to rub with somebody. You know.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: I was a victim of animal rights agenda with with
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Caroll Baskin and Peter In order to make tigers illegal
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: to own his pets, which is pretty damn stupid to
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: still a man's life and complete fifty five years of
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: hard work, you know, in order to pass a law
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: for an agenda. My parents have died since then, you know,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I've lost everything. So I never had a speeding ticket, man, Randy,
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: You know, in fifty five years, I've never had a
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: speeding ticket. I'm not a threat to society. And hell,
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I would be happy to self deport myself to Mexico
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: to go live with my husband if it's you know,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: if America has an issue with me, But they shouldn't
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: because I didn't do anything wrong. I euthanized five tigers,
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: big damn deal. You know, they were twenty three years old,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: they were crippled. My inspector told me to euthanize them
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: that way. But where the hell was she when it
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: comes time to testify in court? They couldn't. According to
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: my public defenders, they couldn't locate her to subpoena or her.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: How the hell you not locate a federal inspector? You know,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: nothing about my case makes sense. But what did finally
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: make sense is they used three convicted felons to set
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: me up and fabricate evidence, and at least I can
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: say they were smart enough to record the Feds the
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: whole time they were doing it, because that's what's gonna
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: save me. But anyway, hey, this thing beef, which means
