Robin Lehner’s decision to purchase a snake-breeding business in 2017 began a “Tiger King”-like episode that featured alleged non-payment of funds by Lehner and the murder of the snake farm’s previous owner by his wife and another man.
It was only part of a series of financial woes involving Lehner’s other companies that in December led the Vegas Golden Knights goalkeeper to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
In June, Lehner was sued for nearly $4 million tied to Solarcode, a business for which Lehner and his father are listed as owners of. A Wisconsin company named Eclipse Service Inc. was behind the lawsuit, claiming the Lehner’s failed to repay a business loan.
