In addition, his mother requires care because she has a mental illness.

Tiger King star Doc Antle is asking to be released from custody pending sentencing. He says there is good reason for this because his wild animals require special care.

In addition, he himself has health problems and his mother, who suffers from dementia, is in his care. Doc Antle's attorneys have produced documents about his health; he suffers from mercurial arrhythmia and high blood pressure, in addition, he has sleep apnea and discomfort from fractures.

Doc suggests he be released on bail, TMZ writes. No word yet on the judge's decision on that.
