New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. Can’t stop thinking about Travis and his story honestly. He was my age... was anyone else affected by his story? I think he was depressed, frustrated and wanted out of the park, but I don’t think his suicide was intentional. I know it’s made to seem like an accident, and the context around his death definitely does seem to indicate it was probably a mistake... BUT- do you think it’s possible he intentionally committed suicide? i didn’t even finish the episode. Press J to jump to the feed. A rivalry between big cat eccentrics takes a dark turn when Joe Exotic, a controversial animal park boss, is caught in a murder-for-hire plot. Travis was a 6'5" 200+ pound man. He was manipulated and you could see the pain and sadness in him every time he talked. something that struck me so hard was that for the entire duration of the show, i’m thinking about how travis looks just like my little brother and how many things they have in common. Joe groomed them both and used thier weaknesses against them. Anyways heres a video compilation of him https://youtu.be/o4mWmODCoIQ, I used to be in a similar situation as him when I was younger(not as severe) and it breaks my heart you can see he’s clearly high in some of the clips on Netflix, New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. He was manipulated and you could see the pain and sadness in him every time he talked. He seemed to believe that a Ruger wouldn’t fire without the clip in. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. Joe probably baited him to suicide, narcissistic abuse is crazy making.

The guy was clearly a douche when it came to guns. Joe’s behavior was predatory, manipulative, abusive, disgusting, and disturbing. I’m Hispanic without a Spanish surname, miss me with that condescending shit. I’m Latino/Hispanic myself, so yes. the shots of travis before he got beefed up look like my brother before the military.

I don’t know. Does anybody know? but that one was just too much for me. I can’t imagine this hitting that close to home. It's just so sad. There's no way anyone would point a gun to their head and pull the trigger as a joke. It's so sad. Was he of Cuban or Mexican descent or... ? I don't buy this whole joe tracking him down stuff tbh. I can’t stop thinking about it either. I thought he looked Argentinian or Portuguese.

From blond, blue eyed, to black, and black eyed. It was gut wrenching. If that was my son I would drag him by his golden nuggets off to rehab . Travis Maldonado Death Photos.

I really want to know where in SoCal he grew up. plus their affinity for guns, 4-wheelers, and a little chaos (lol) to see him perish from such a preventable accident like that just struck me very hard. That said, someone overconfident with a gun could assume the magazine safety would prevent the gun from firing.

That said, if you think you know guns you could get over confident. Always making statements to those around him about how he couldn’t leave, etc. He was obviously very controlling and wouldn't really let Travis leave. I was saddened by him and John. Thought i was going syko. And it’s so sad to think that he felt that killing himself was his only way out.

Did he not realize there was a round in the chamber? He was 23 perhaps passed from sadistic, mental abuse that caused suicide. Where does "Passage" come from? The story of the death of Travis Maldonado, 'Tiger King' Joe Exotic, is a wild one.

I’m very affected and in the same position as you. His current husband's name is Dillion Passage.

No person who respects guns would do 1/100 of what the people in the series do. If John Finlay can just get in a fight with Joe then walk out, Travis sure as hell could too, I feel like. It was also mentioned that John was treated the same way and maybe even talks of abuse.

I have two Ruger pistols, one can fire without the magazine and the other won’t. It seems like he never really got a chance to live. I think it's pretty clear it was intentional.

he was so fucking young, and despite having trouble with drugs, still had a lot of potential for his future. He is popularly known as the husband of the Tiger King named Joe Exotic.He died in the year 2017 and investigation revealed that he died because of shooting himself accidentally Travis Maldonado (born March 22, 1994) was a businessman in America. I can’t seem to get over it. Who also had lots of firearms (provided by joe). Yeah. I’m so sad for him. I'm Mexican-American myself and honestly it surprised me how common it is to be white/black/asian with genetic ties to spanish-speaking communities. The dude was unhappy. I would never work at a place that treats guns so disrespectfully (for fear of being shot or seeing someone get shot.). I even cried couldn't stop thinking of him. Press J to jump to the feed. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. Just curious.

i have had a very hard time coping with that part of the series in particular. A rivalry between big cat eccentrics takes a dark turn when Joe Exotic, a controversial animal park boss, is caught in a murder-for-hire plot. Hyper-sexuality is the technical term for the symptom. Everyone said he used to do pranks like this all the time involving guns. Maldonado is a spanish surname. I think he intended to kill himself. There's alot of people who identify as white who have a Spanish last name especially in areas where Spanish has large influences. Yes horrified and upset no one helped him. Some people are interested in stuff like anthropology/ethnicity/culture, with no harmful or malicious intent. Yeah he said he was having his last cig before he died too, He was also high from the moment he met Joe, it could have been influenced by drugs. Do you think Travis Maldonado killed himself intentionally? If you do enough meth you could probably have gay sex and enjoy it at the time without necessarily being attracted to men.

I think it also affects me because I’m gay and Travis’s age.

Maldonado sounds Spanish or Italian to me. he took Travis and Dylan's last names idk why he didn't take John's too though.

Can't find much information about his back story on the internet. I have a male friend who’s boyfriend shot himself infront of him. I thought he was homeless which would make more sense as to why he woukd marry joe but his family was at his "wedding" wtf is up with that. I am just so sad for him, he was such a good looking guy with his whole life ahead of him but Joe took him in and basically kept him as a prisoner, making sure he was always high and never letting him leave. They were absolutely groomed. A rivalry between big cat eccentrics takes a dark turn when Joe Exotic, a controversial animal park boss, is caught in a murder-for-hire plot. One of my favorite friends is super white and speaks no Spanish although his father was born and partially raised in Mexico. everything up to that point was hard to swallow, to say the least. Press J to jump to the feed. The story about Travis walking up and putting his nuts in Joe’s face screams meth’d out hyper-sexuality, especially when you consider the many scenes of Travis avoiding affection from Joe, probably because he was sober and it was no longer appealing to him. Glad to know others felt the same. then the somewhat older version of travis looks like my brother post-military, all the way down to the wild hair. Some Rugers do have a safety mechanism called a magazine safety that prevents the gun from firing if no magazine is present. Though there are many aspects of the series to comment on, many are attached to the story of [one of Joe Exotic’s husbands], Travis Maldonado. This post is for Travis Maldonado I just finished ep7 and I’m really, really troubled by Travis’s story. If you have an any concern on this publication, do not hesitate to send us an e-mail via [email protected] gmail.com. It was an accident. People forget or just don't know that Spanish people held domain over some southern portions of the USA for over 300 years and that level of …

I know it’s made to seem like an accident, and the context around his death definitely does seem to indicate it was probably a mistake... BUT- do you think it’s possible he intentionally committed suicide? Joe is definitely a manipulative narcissist and drugs were almost certainly involved in their relationship, but I think their relationship was mostly consensual as well. It’s horrifying. Where in OP is the word “race” mentioned? Did he think having the clip out was a safety feature? What really confuses me is Joe's multiple last names? Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. He seemed so unhappy and angry.

I agree, I think he shot himself deliberately, because he was ranting about being a prisoner a few seconds before as you can see on the security footage. this absolutely broke my heart. If he did feel threatened, he could call police, too. The amount of brandishing firearms and even firing firearms without considering the background in the series is absolutely terrifying. I think he probably thought it was a brand-wide feature but unfortunately it’s not. There's alot of people who identify as white who have a Spanish last name especially in areas where Spanish has large influences. Pulling a gun on someone or putting a gun to your head and pulling the trigger is a classic gun “prank” that dumb teenagers do everyday in America. Wij willen hier een beschrijving geven, maar de site die u nu bekijkt staat dit niet toe. You are aware that Latino /Hispanics can be of any race correct ? Perfectly harmless question, no?

He's just interested. My wild guess is he is of English-Spanish decent with ties to old Mexico.

I just finished ep7 and I’m really, really troubled by Travis’s story. My guess is Travis forgot or did not know his particular gun that day had no magazine safety. He had so much of potential if only someone took him to rehab he would of had a fighting chance. He was my age, too.

He looked highly distressed, depressed.. stuck in an abusive coercively controlling cult, no one was going to help him and they all enabled the obvious power imbalance and sex abuse. People forget or just don't know that Spanish people held domain over some southern portions of the USA for over 300 years and that level of influence doesn't just disappear so easily. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, but it wasn't suicide. Doesn't look Latino/Hispanic to me, but his surname is Maldonado. with that being said Travis was either directly related to Spanish people or had a step parent with a Spanish name. He seemed like a young kid who was swept away by Joe’s aura and also the drugs. Meth makes people horny, which is why it’s a common drug in the “party and play” gay scene.

I assumed Mexican, he's from SoCal and most of my friends down there with that last name are Mexican. You know “Mexican” isn’t a race and we can be of all shades, correct? It’s a common safety feature on some pistols but not all pistols. Most Mexicans are part European (Spanish), Fairly certain most mexicans are “part European”. Unfortunately, not every model of Ruger has a magazine safety. This has me thinking about that guy like crazy and having the heaviest heart for him and Travis alike. The death photos were not available yet and for some rights and privacy, we may not be able to upload them on our website even if we have them. Notice I said “ethnicity” and not “race” in OP. I live there so I guess I'm interested. People keep speculating that maybe Travis shot himself on accident but I highly doubt that. They stopped referencing Schreibvoge surname at some point during the series. So did he take Travis last name? Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. I also can't stop thinking about it. the scene where the campaign manager witnesses the accidental suicide, i had to stop the show and get out of my seat. He was definitely Mexican.
