Walter Palmer: Cecil the Lion"s Killer Will NOT Face Criminal Charges!
Over the summer, the Internet flipped out over what appeared to be the unlawful killing of the beloved beast known as Cecil the Lion.
Cecil was a major attraction at Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park, and had long been part of an Oxford conservation study.
In June, he was lured out of the sanctuary, shot with a bow and arrow and tracked form more than 40 hours before eventually being shot, skinned and decapitated.
When park officials found his body, they noted that his tracking collar had been removed, thus indicating that whoever killed him was well aware that this was no ordinary lion.
In July, a Minnesota dentist named Walter Palmer admitted to killing Cecil and incurred the wrath of animal lovers the world over.
Palmer was forced into hiding and temporarily closed his dental practice. There was a time when it looked as though he might be extradited and wind up serving jail time in Zimbabwe.
To the shock of millions, however, it now seems that Palmer will not face any sort of criminal charges as a result of killing Cecil.
TMZ is reporting that Palmer has been cleared of any wrongdoing by Zimbabwe’s environmental minister.
An investigation revealed that Palmer had filed the proper papers and had “legal authority to conduct the hunt.”
A happy day for Palmer and his family, no doubt, but a sad one for those who hold Cecil’s memory close to their hearts.

Ashley Benson Dresses as Cecil the Lion, Hears It from Critics
A Pretty Little Liar has made a pretty major costume faux pas.
Ashley Benson took to Instagram on Tuesday in order to give followers an early look at her Halloween outfit, sharing the following image and explaining her look thusly:
“Help! Can’t decide on my Halloween costume this year! What do you guys think of this cecil the lion costume? @yandy #thanksyandy #halloweencostume.”
Cecil the Lion, of course, was a protected animal in Africa who unfortunately made headlines this summer after a dentist from Minnesota shot and killed him illegally.
Not long afterward, online stores started to sell Cecil the Lion costumes, offending many who don’t think it’s appropriate to use an innocent creature’s murder as some kind of holiday prop.
So you can imagine the backlash Benson received upon posting this photo.
The criticism was so extreme and immediate, in fact, that the young actress quickly jumped online and changed her wording to simply read:
“What do you guys think of this lion costume?”
But at least follower wasn’t gonna allow Benson to get away with this edit, shooting back at her:
“you called it ‘Cecil the Lion!’ #clueless #smh #insensitive,” while another added:
”It’s a shame lions can’t wear dead ignorant humans as costumes. Totally unaware douche.”
OUCH!
At least Benson has company in the controversial costume game, as you can see above.
