'1000-Lb Sisters' Amy Slaton's Injury Claims Checks Out, Cause Still TBD

Amy Slaton's claim of a camel bite seems to check out — at least there is definitely a not-so-pleasant injury!

Obtained images of the "1000-Lb Sisters" star's alleged encounter with a camel during her visit to the Tennessee Safari Park in Alamo have been released, and there is a bite mark that proves part of her claims.

Amy Slaton's alleged attack happened right before she got taken into custody on Monday on drug possession and child endangerment charges.

The reality star's injury pictures show her with a 4-centimeter wide chunk of skin missing from her right arm, close to her inner elbow, giving way to an exposed tissue.

However, the zoo owner, Jon Conley, claimed he saw the bite and insisted it did not look like something a camel would inflict on someone.

The zoo owner's story seemed distorted as the Crockett County Sheriff's Department revealed that an employee from the zoo called them to report that a visitor suffered a camel bite.

Conley insisted there was no way one of their camels bit Amy, adding that he found it strange the reality star had no bruised tissue and the skin was cut open, meaning it was not an animal bite, per TMZ. The reality star was ferried out of the zoo on a stretcher.

The Blast shared that Amy was arrestedshortly after the camel bit her when the cops found psychedelic mushrooms and marijuana in her car.

The law enforcement officers claimed that she left the drugs in plain sight with two children inside the vehicle.

The reality star's arrest was announced on Facebook by the Crockett County Sheriff's Department, who explained that she and a man named Brian Scott Lovvom had been caught at the Safari Park.

The officers stated that upon their arrival, "deputies were immediately overtaken by suspicious odors coming from the guest's vehicle."

They noted that Amy and her accomplice were arrested and booked into the Crockett County Jail on multiple charges of illegal possession of schedule I, illegal possession of schedule IV, and two counts of child endangerment.

The police did not fail to establish that Amy's case was still under close investigation and she has not been convicted of any crimes.

"The charges and allegations referenced in this release are merely accusations of criminal conduct and not evidence," the authorities wrote in their statement.

The authorities stressed that the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and convicted through due process of the law.

This means that Amy's charges could be dropped if there was substantial evidence of her innocence. 

Her older sister, Tammy was also taken in for possession of drugs eleven months ago when the cops visited her home following an anonymous tip.

Amy was released from jail alongside Lovvorn for $10,000, and they were spotted walking out of the correctional facility hand in hand.

The Blast reported that her arrest gained "national attention," and people all over, including as far as California, were ready to help post her bail.

The duo avoided the press as they walked out of the Crockett County jail,  but the tourniquet below Amy's elbow remained obvious.

Amy donned a black tank top over pink camouflage shorts as he and her jail companion rushed into a waiting vehicle in the viral Facebook video. 

Sources close to the development shared that law enforcement contacted the Department of Human Services after Amy was taken in on drug possession and child endangerment charges.

The reality star's children, Gage Deon, 4, and Glenn Allen, 2, have since been placed in the custody of a family member, reportedly her sister Tammy pending the completion of investigations.

Amy's release came a day after concerned fans who would not stop asking Tammy about Amy's well-being in her comment section.

The cause of Amy Slaton's wound still remains unsure as fans await the next development in her drug possession and child endangerment case.
