I wasn't trying to go to trial and face all this time and I wasn't trying to cooperate and

snitch on people to get myself out of it.

So I saw as my only option was to take off.

I was like, okay, how do I do it or you know, can I take off how can I you know leave no trail and

how can I kind of make Seth Ferrante disappear so these charges disappear I'm gonna

fake my suicide once Seth Ferrante is declared legally dead, then the charges go away.

This one arrived in my inbox as a suggestion from Anthony Matenia, who said if you like interesting and unique stories I would suggest

featuring Seth Ferranti so I'll just read out what he wrote underneath that and you'll see

why I wanted Seth on the show as a young man he fell victim to the US War on Drugs

and was sentenced to 25 years in prison as a nonviolent first-time offender. He

faked his suicide and went on the run landing on the US Marshall top 10

most wanted list before he was eventually caught. In prison he obtained

three degrees and wrote 21 books while starting a journalism career writing for Vice, Penthouse and others.

Upon his release he pursued his dreams of becoming a filmmaker writing and producing the hit

Netflix documentary White Boy.

His story was featured on Vice as I was a teenage felon. He currently has five documentary films in production and is an

activist against the war on drugs. Well there you go. You don't need more than that from

me. What an amazing amazing, amazing, that's just a paragraph of a person,

and that's quite an extraordinary person.

He's the first guest I've had on the show

who has, as far as I know, know faked their own suicide and that's just

fascinating to me. Find Seth Ferranti through his name on Twitter and
