Known as the "Missingest Man in New York," Judge Joseph Crater's 1930 disappearance is considered the longest-running unsolved missing person case to stun the NYPD. "Good Time Joe" Crater was a well-polished 41-year-old judge known both for his legal acumen and his affinity for showgirls. He was probably also involved in judicial corruption. Crater vanished after getting into a taxi and was never seen again. In 2005, an elderly woman claimed, in a letter discovered after she died, that her late husband had known that a cabdriver and rogue police officer killed Crater and buried him under a Coney Island boardwalk.
