Carole Baskin feels betrayed by Tiger King producers, says she's received death threats

Tampa Bay Times

In an interview with the Tampa Bay Times, Baskin reiterated her disappointment with the Netflix docuseries. But she also said she's received death threats since Tiger King premiered on March 20. Four days earlier, on March 16, Baskin closed her Bit Cat Rescue sanctuary due to coronavirus. Baskin said she's seen drones flying over her home and that her doorbell camera has captured 30 people a day lingering in front of her house. But what troubles Baskin and her husband Howard the most is how Tiger King breezed over the suffering of the captive tiger trade. “There’s almost no way to describe the intensity of the feeling of betrayal,” her husband said. Carole Baskin also doesn't like the insinuation that she killed her ex-husband and the memes the cold case has inspired. “They saw those cubs being dragged away from their mother," she said. "Where are those memes? Where are those comments?”
