Giving up a guy known as the “Merchant of Death” for an athlete caught with vape canisters containing cannabis oil seems like a ridiculous trade. So ridiculous that Joe Exotic has decided to weigh-in from behind bars.
Exotic, who is serving a 21-year sentence for his role in a murder-for-hire plot, has some thoughts about the trade. Those thoughts are centered around how Griner being freed should lead to his own get out of jail free card being issued.
So naturally, he’s calling on President Biden to release him from prison. He said in a recording obtained by TMZ, “The whole Brittney Griner and Trevor Reed prisoner swap is a slap in every American’s face that is wrongfully detained in the American Federal Prison System, including myself.”
“Carole Baskin got her big cat safety act passed, now called the “Tiger King” bill. A dangerous man was released for Brittney Griner to be free, it’s time Joe Exotic gets to go home for Christmas to be with Seth and his son for the first time in five Christmases.”
