Joe Exotic's former attorney claimed the star unknowingly made him use Netflix royalties to buy drugs in a prison deal. 

Attorney Francisco Hernandez's law office admitted in a damning 147-page court filing that Joe Exotic, legally named Joseph Maldonado-Passage, 59, had directed Hernandez to make 'cloaked payments for drug transactions in the prison.' 

'Indeed, Mr. Maldonado-Passage would lie to Mr. Hernandez, referring to the payments as expenses for tiger food, among other descriptions,' the court documents, obtained by The Sun, said. 

'Mr. Hernandez only learned of the true nature of these payments in September 2021, when Mr. Maldonado-Passage was caught in prison with a burner phone and admitted the practice to Mr. Hernandez.'

Hernandez said in the court document that he had email proof of the Tiger King star 'directing Mr. Hernandez to use funds' for drugs. 

 Maldonado-Passage has previously tried to get Hernandez disbarred. 

It is unclear how much the tiger handler made off the hit Netflix show.

In June, Maldonado-Passage made waves again after he  took to Instagram in a now-deleted post to reveal his love had decided to end his romance with him, after John Graham was released from federal prison in Texas. 

Maldonado-Passage had recently broke up with his prison boyfriend John Graham. John and Maldonado-Passage fell in love after they met in February 2021 while both were serving prison time at FMC Forth Worth in Texas
