Material Detail

In less than three decades, Richie Farmer went from being a top-notch basketball player in high school and at the University of Kentucky to a career as Agriculture Commissioner. At the University of Kentucky, Farmer was part of a team nicknamed “The Unforgettables” for their gutsy plays.

This misconduct has led to a 27-month stint at Hazelton federal prison in West Virginia.
