Joe Exotic‘s father has died … and Joe’s loss is now dovetailing with a trip to D.C. for a pardon that would allow Joe to attend his dad’s funeral.
We’ve learned Joe’s father, Francis Schreibvogel, recently died following complications from COVID … The funeral is set for Saturday in Oklahoma, and Joe desperately wants to go.
TMZ broke the story … Joe’s legal team will be flying to Washington D.C. today pushing for that pardon, but now there’s an added urgency since the clock is ticking for the funeral.
As we reported, Joe’s legal team, headed up by Eric Love, has chartered a jet with a Joe/’Tiger King’ wrap that they’re flying to D.C. … making it a show. Love has told TMZ he has a big meeting with someone White House/pardon-related, but he’s not saying who.
If Trump doesn’t grant the pardon, they have a plan B … going to a judge and asking for a day pass — essentially a temporary release — so Joe can attend his dad’s funeral.
As we previously reported … the ‘Tiger King’ star’s legal team hit the road for D.C. back in May with a bus wrapped in a plea to get Joe sprung from prison. They believe the pardon is in play.
