Fyre Festival founder Billy McFarland is still considered a 'fugitive' for the disaster, the Bahamian tourism minister said.

that would be promoted through a treasure hunt set to begin this week on the Caribbean island nation.

In addition to his prison sentence, McFarland was ordered to pay roughly $26 million in restitution for his crimes. In May, his attorney Jason Russo toldthat McFarland was focused on finding “the best way to generate income to pay this restitution back and make amends,” adding, “Any new projects that he does become involved in will be done solely for the purpose of generating the restitution for paying back his victims.
