'1000-Lb. Sisters' star Amy Slaton left zoo on stretcher before arrest, after alleged camel bite

As a follower, I find it heartbreaking to see Amy Slaton Halterman, a once vibrant and inspiring figure from “1000-Lb. Sisters,” going through such a public ordeal. Her life has been a rollercoaster ride, filled with struggles, triumphs, and now, apparently, unexpected encounters with camels and legal issues. It’s hard not to feel for her, especially given her history of battling weight and other personal challenges.


In simpler terms, Amy Slaton Halterman, famously known from “1000-Lb. Sisters,” was allegedly removed from a Tennessee safari park on a stretcher just prior to her arrest on Monday.

Yesterday, images surfaced from TMZ showing me being escorted into an ambulance by EMTs, with me clutching a fabric to one of my arms. According to their report, it seems I had been injured by a camel at the zoo, who is said to have bitten me.

On Labor Day this year, things were not typical in Crockett County, as stated by the Sheriff’s Department on Monday.

Upon their arrival to probe the suspected incident at Tennessee Safari Park, deputies were swiftly hit by peculiar odors emanating from the visitor’s car, as stated in the report.

Officers reported discovering marijuana and hallucinogenic mushrooms, as well as two minor children, in Halterman’s vehicle. As a result, the reality TV star was taken into custody for suspected drug crimes involving controlled substances from Schedules I and VI, as well as potential child endangerment.

In the incident involving Halterman and the camel, another individual present in the vehicle, Brian Scott Lovvorn, was also detained on similar charges. Both individuals were subsequently held at the Crockett County Jail, as officials announced. Earlier, before their imprisonment, Halterman was transported to a medical facility due to an arm injury that could potentially have been inflicted by the camel. Stephen Sutton, spokesperson for the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department, confirmed this on Tuesday.

On Tuesday afternoon, Halterman and Lovvorn were granted bail set at $10,000 each, according to reports made public on Wednesday. As they stepped out of police custody, the two were observed walking hand in hand.

As a passionate film enthusiast, I found myself in an unexpected situation when my dear ones – the Halterman kids – were temporarily placed under the care of a trusted relative, following their mom’s legal predicament. The news came through various outlets.
