Tiger King: 12 Unanswered Questions Season 2 Must Answer

10. Why Did Carole Baskin Suspect Her Husband's Secretary Was The Murderer?

One notably missing aspect of the show's portrayal of the mysterious disappearance and apparent murder of Don Lewis, was Carole Baskin's theory of what happened to her husband. While proclaiming her innocence and emphasising just how ludicrous the idea of her feeding her husband to tigers was, Ms Baskin also had a theory as to how he died- his secretary murdered him.

Baskin outlined this idea to the filmmakers, who chose not to use the footage, perhaps feeling that it moved the focus of the story too far off track. It is a shame though, as it is another amazing angle to this perplexing mystery that viewers desperately want answered. For the show runners of the second season it will be essential to not just discuss the theory with Don's secretary, but also to identify exactly why Carole thought the secretary was involved.

Of all the potential questions to be answered, this one may prove the most elusive, considering Baskin's detailed complaints in regards her depiction in the show. The likelihood of her sitting down with the filmmakers and outlining in detail why she believes her ex-Husband's secretary would have killed him seems unlikely, leaving us to hypothesise about just how viable this theory is.
