Lewis’ disappearance was documented in the Netflix series “Tiger King”, and the will in question includes a clause stating that in the event of his disappearance, Baskin would inherit all of his assets.

According to Sheriff Chronister, two experts looked at the will and concluded that it was a fake, and that this was something officers already knew, adding that they are following up on new leads in the case.
