Farace used his contacts with old friends, and new ones he met in prison, to start a Marijuana selling business, which soon expanded into other drugs. In June 1985, Farace was released from prison.

His father Gregory Scarpa, Sr. was a secret FBI informer. Farace married Antoinette Acierno, a sister of a criminal associate.
