Following the release of Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness, fans still had plenty of questions about the wild cast of characters that were featured. On Monday, FOX aired TMZ Investigates: Tiger King — What Really Went Down? in order to try and answer some of those questions. Of course, the special addressed the topic that has been on nearly every viewers’ mind since watching the show — what was the situation between Carole Baskin and her missing husband, Don Lewis. Many fans have theorized and claimed that Baskin killed her husband. And now, after the topic was addressed in TMZ’s special, fans are, once again, weighing in on the matter.
“The first thing that you’re gonna see is the sheriff [Chad Chronister] say… That he is very suspicious of Carole, and others, even though he says she’s not a suspect or person of interest. Then he says that he believes Don Lewis was murdered and he believes there was more than one person involved and that somebody got paid and that somebody helped,” TMZ founder Harvey Levin told The Wrap about Baskin and the special before it aired. “And he is asking for somebody to come forward when we did the interview with him and that he is inclined to give them immunity, even if they participated, if they can lead him to the big fish. So the fact that he’s offering immunity and that he believes that there were multiple people and he explains why he’s suspicious of Carole.”

Skeptical of Her Story

One fan wrote that Baskin’s story “doesn’t add up.” Clearly, they’re not exactly convinced that the Tiger King star didn’t have something to do with an alleged crime against her husband.
