After Joe’s very pink three-way marriage in Oklahoma, which was also a bizarre moment in itself, to John Finlay and Travis Maldonado ended, he married his fifth husband, Dillon Passage.

The pair met through Joe’s cousin and married in 2017. They stayed together up until the time of his arrest for murder-for-hire and wildlife charges, which is shown in Tiger King’s seventh and final episode.

After Joe was incarcerated, Jeff Lowe ended up swindling and becoming the CEO of the private zoo. By the time the events in Tiger King ended, Lowe seemed like he was on the verge of a federal takedown, basically admitting on camera that he set up Joe for his murder charge.

Doc Antle currently still runs this business, but is he also still running a sex cult? A few testimonials in the documentary alleged that Doc Antle was cultivating a cult-like social structure at his parks, which needs to be further explored by Tiger King’s producers in the future.
