Bhagavan "Doc" Antle, who appeared in the 2020 docuseries "Tiger King," and four others have been indicted on 10 counts of wildlife trafficking and money laundering charges.
Authorities claim that Antle and his employee "laundered more than $500,000 in cash they believed to be the proceeds of an operation to smuggle illegal immigrants across the Mexican border into the United States," according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office District of South Carolina.
....Antle allegedly violated federal law by illegally trafficking wildlife and falsified records for the wildlife including lemurs, a chimpanzee and cheetahs, which are listed as endangered or threatened under the Endangered Species Act, according to the indictment.
That show continues to entertain. He was already out on bail.
