Maldonado-Passage, 58, also posted a picture of a handwritten letter in the Twitter post claiming proof of his innocence and asking supporters to push for his release so he can “get treatment on my own or enjoy what time I have left with my loved ones.”
Maldonado-Passage was sentenced to 22 years in federal prison after being convicted of violating federal wildlife laws and being involved in a failed murder-for-hire plot to kill Florida animal rights activist Carole Baskin.
In September 2020, he sent a handwritten letter to former President Donald Trump, asking for a pardon and to set him free.
