Jimmy John’s chooses not to respond to photos reportedly showing owner hunting big game
The photos have been circulating for some time, but they take on particular significance after the death of Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe.
Jimmy John’s is saying nothing about a series of photos that allegedly show the sandwich chain’s owner, Jimmy John Liautaud, smiling over the carcasses of three elephants, a rhinoceros and a leopard.
