If your name was Bum Farto, would you try to keep a low profile or would you make sure history would remember the name Bum Farto?


"Joseph "Bum" Farto (July 3, 1919 – January 1, 1986) was a fire chief and convicted drug dealer in Key West, Florida, who disappeared in 1976. He was one of several politically connected Key West individuals arrested as part of a sting operation known as Operation Conch. Farto disappeared shortly after his conviction and was declared dead in absentia in 1986. His life and disappearance has been the subject of a 2020 podcast series and a 2021 Pamela Stephenson play."
