Following the success of Netflix's Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness, a new docuseries is set to explore one of the show's biggest plot points: did Big Cat Rescue owner and self-proclaimed animal advocate Carole Baskin have anything to do with her husband's disappearance? In the hit true-crime series Tiger King, viewers learn that Carole's husband, Don Lewis, whom she met when she was 20 and he was 42, mysteriously disappeared in 1997 without a trace. To this day, it remains an unsolved case. And for Baskin's rival Joe Exotic, and others including Lewis' first wife, there was no doubt in their minds that she was somehow involved in his disappearance. A claim that she has strongly denied. OJ Simpson says that there's "no doubt" Tiger King star Carole Baskin killed her husband: [[jwplayerwidget||https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/Zr3eP4QD-izxriqNH.mp4||Zr3eP4QD]] Following the release of the seven-part Tiger King, Carole's new husband, Howard Baskin <a href="https://bigcatrescue.org/refuting-netflix-tiger-king/">slammed</a> the contents of the documentary, accusing its editors of sensationalizing the truth in a bid to draw more viewers.
