‘1000-Lb Sisters’ Amy Slaton Was Stretched Out at the Zoo Before Being Arrested

Although more information regarding Amy Slaton’s latest arrest has surfaced, the reason behind the camel incident is still unknown.

Police allegedly discovered drugs in the “1000-Lb Sisters” actress’s possession at the Tennessee Safari Park, leading to her being arrested on drug possession charges. Due to a reported camel biting incident, they were summoned to the location.

Amy Slaton says the enormous mammal hurt her and had to cart her out of the zoo. But the park officials denied her version of events.

What Was The Status Of Amy Slaton?

On Monday, September 2, the drama occurred at the Tennessee Safari Park in Alamo; fresh images from the scene show Amy in a stretcher. With a piece of fabric wrapped around one arm like a makeshift tourniquet, she appeared to be in discomfort.

Before EMS personnel showed along and hauled Amy away, witnesses said they observed Amy strolling across the parking lot with the garment wrapped around her arm. What then become of the TLC celebrity? Officials said she was bitten by a camel.

There is a drive-through safari and a walk-through zoo at Tennessee Safari Park, where visitors can pay to feed exotic animals. Although giraffes and camels are among the animals accessible for up close encounters, these mammals are said to be calm.

Jon Conley, a Tennessee Safari Park owner, told TMZ that Amy’s injuries was not caused by a camel. He said that because the skin was fileted open and there was no damaged tissue, the cut above her elbow could not be connected to the creature’s bite marks.

Claims from Park Owners Amy’s Account of Her Camel Bite Is Not Credible

Conley reiterated her insistence that the park’s camels were innocent in Amy’s case, emphasizing that despite hosting thousands of visitors, the animals had never bitten anyone.

The co-owner of the park also discounted Amy’s account due to a lack of proof, pointing out that no security video supported her allegation. Conley further contended that the TV personality was unable to provide an explanation for the location of the purported incident in the park.

The mystery surrounding the camel bite event persists, but Amy’s drug possession allegation seems obvious. Police reported finding marijuana and hallucinogenic mushrooms in her vehicle.

And that wasn’t all—despite the fact that Amy’s automobile contained two toddlers, the drugs were apparently visible. Naturally, the 36-year-old got into a lot of difficulty when he had children around when drugs were around.

Within The TLC Star’s Allegation of Drug Possession

The Blast said that the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department revealed Amy’s arrest in a Facebook post. They clarified that she was detained at the Safari Park along with a man by the name of Brian Scott Lovvorn.

According to the statement, “deputies were immediately overtaken by suspicious odors coming from the guest’s vehicle upon arrival.” Amy and her companion were brought into custody and charged with several crimes, according to the statement.

Charges of prohibited schedule I and IV possession as well as two counts of endangering the welfare of a child were included in the list. Amy’s case is serious, but it doesn’t mean that her destiny is set in stone.

Amy can prove her innocence and avoid the drug possession charge.

The Sheriff’s Department emphasized in the announcement of Amy’s arrest that she had not been found guilty of any crimes and that her case was still being looked into. The text of the message said:

“The charges and allegations referenced in this release are merely accusations of criminal conduct and not evidence.”

The statement went on to say, “The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and convicted through due process of law,” which seemed to suggest that Amy’s charges might be withdrawn if there was enough evidence to support her innocence.

Eleven months have passed since Tammy, Amy’s older sister, was detained in connection with a comparable event. Similar to this current instance, an anonymous allegation prompted officials to visit the residence of the other Slaton.

The elder sister of Amy Slaton was previously arrested for marijuana possession.

Tammy was charged with one count of marijuana possession and two charges of drug paraphernalia possession in October 2023. Five days following the funeral of her late husband Caleb Willingham, her arrest occurred during a difficult time.

On July 1, 2023, Willingham passed away. Tammy confirmed the news in a heartfelt statement. “I am heartbroken to inform you of my husband’s demise. I loved him so much, and he was my greatest friend,” she wailed.

“Caleb became my guardian angel when we first met, and he is genuinely keeping an eye on me now. Our families ask that you respect our privacy at this time and thank everyone for their condolences.”
