Joe Exotic’s husband reportedly arrested for drunken driving
Joe Exotic’s husband and co-star on Netflix’s hit docuseries “Tiger King” was arrested for drunken driving in Texas — and didn’t know where he was, reports said Monday.
Dillon Passage, 25, was found by police in a black 2020 Dodge Challenger on the side of Highway 290 in Manor around 1:30 a.m. Sunday and told cops he thought he was in a town about an hour north of where he was stopped, Fox 5 reported.
When cops spoke to Passage, they decided to conduct a field sobriety test and deemed it unsafe to let the reality TV star get back behind the wheel, the outlet said. The official toxicology screen is still pending, the outlet reported.
Passage was arrested for DWI and also for an outstanding warrant for resisting arrest. He was taken to the Travis County Jail and was held on a $3,000 bond.
Joe Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage, married Passage in December 2017. The nuptials occurred just months after Exotic’s former husband accidentally shot himself to death.
The tiger lover is currently behind bars, serving a 22-year prison sentence for a botched murder-for-hire plot against his nemesis and fellow big cat aficionado Carole Baskin.
