Pitbull and Parolees fans have been wondering, where is Darius now? What is he doing? Is he married? Did he ever pursue a career as a veterinarian tech?
Scroll down to find out what we know about him today.
What Happened to Darius from Pitbulls and Parolees?
Animal Planet Pitbull and the Pardoned has seen the Villalobos Rescue Center make it their mission to save the lives of Pitbulls and help them find their forever homes, and has given second chances to the parolees who make up their staff and volunteers. While the rescue center has been in operation for 30 years, the show has been running for 18 seasons.
One of the parolees, Darius joined the show in 2017 during season 11. On the show, Darius couldn’t hide the joy he felt working with the dogs. Darius was on parole from Dixon Correctional Institution in Jackson, Louisiana. He landed a role on the show right away, where he worked with rescue center owner Tia Torres.
Tia hopes that Darius will replace Country Matt, who left for New York and was the first case released from the center after working there. In the video, Tia shows Darius how to properly train a Pitbull by placing his hand close to the animal’s face to avoid being bitten. He grins like a child and says, “Oh my gosh,” when he finally gets the Pitbull to sit like Tia showed him how.
Darius also talked about the many things he learned while working at the shelter. He said, “Prison really taught me what respect is, what is not, what is integrity. Prison really helped me become a respectful young man.”
Fans also admire Darius’ enthusiasm for working as a vet tech. After his debut on the show, one fan wrote, “You can do this Darius!!! Keep your eyes on the ball and keep moving forward. I have no doubt you will be one of the best vets in the country, just keep focused. Love hugs and prayers.”
Another fan added, “I see a bright future for Darius. He’s a genuine young man who I think will make a great vet tech, he might want to be a vet, he’s smart and has a bright mind.”
“The opportunity to work with someone like Tia is amazing, and there couldn’t be a better time,” he said of his position at the Villalobos Rescue Center. “To be able to work with someone who understands animal care is not only a blessing, but something that a lot of people need,” he added. “Someone who can push you, someone who can give you that extra drive and that extra ambition to do what you love to do.”
After his sudden disappearance, fans of Darius and the show asked what happened to the man who showed so much potential to become a vet tech. One fan commented on the rescue center’s Facebook page, “I have a really good feeling about him too – like he would have been a great vet tech! I hope he gets back on track.”
Where are Pitbulls and Parolees Darius now?
Like other Pitbulls and Parolees fans, we were sad to see Darius leave the show. Plus, no one who was a fan of the show knows where Darius is now.
Rumor has it that he’s in vet school. Another fan wrote about it, “Did anyone ever find out?? I saw someone offer to pay for his vet school tuition!!?!” Another asked, “Is Darius, the parolee, in vet school? Did he ever contact the guy on Twitter who offered to pay for his vet school tuition?”
Similarly, another fan chimed in, “It would be a shame if he goes back to his evil ways. I’m watching one of his first episodes and he has so much potential.”
According to a fan Bettina Wang, “after Darius was released from work, he stopped showing up.” So fans were unhappy that they didn’t get proper closure when it came to Darius. One fan wrote, “I guess this was never answered?”
