Tiger King Star Joe Exotic Resentenced to 21 Years in Prison

Joe Exotic was recently the recipient of some good and bad news. Because the trial court had miscalculated two of the charges against Exotic when he was sentenced to 22 years in prison, in regard to an alleged murder-for-hire plot against Carole Baskin along with animal cruelty charges, a judge ruled that the sentence was erroneous. It was possible that the 22-year sentence could have been dropped to 17, but the federal appeals court instead reduced the sentence by just one year with a new 21-year sentence.
