Draggingtree Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 New York Post Boston mob boss James ‘Whitey’ Bulger killed in prison By Larry Celona, Ben Feuerherd and Bruce Golding October 30, 2018 | 1:01pm https://nyp.st/2qklJpO Blood-thirsty Boston gangster James “Whitey” Bulger, who ran lucrative criminal rackets for decades under the protection of crooked FBI agents, was killed shortly after his transfer to a West Virginia prison late Monday, law-enforcement sources told The Post. Bulger, 89, was found unresponsive inside the maximum-security Hazelton federal penitentiary in Bruceton Mills, the Bureau of Prisons said Tuesday. The BOP didn’t disclose the cause of death, but a law-enforcement source said Bulger was “badly beaten” by more than one inmate shortly after he arrived at Hazelton on Monday. At least one of the attackers used a sock with a padlock inside it to batter Bulger’s face and head, the source said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draggingtree Posted October 31, 2018 Author Share Posted October 31, 2018 Meet the mob hitman suspected of killing Whitey Bulger By Lia Eustachewich / October 31, 2018 | 9:45am An ex-Mafia hitman who’s being eyed as the prime suspect in the fatal beatdown of James “Whitey” Bulger can guarantee his status as a boss behind bars — if he really was behind the infamous Boston gangster’s death. Fotios “Freddy” Geas is suspected of rubbing out Bulger, 89, on Tuesday morning — hours after the aging mobster was transferred to Hazelton federal penitentiary in West Virginia. “He’s a rich man now. He’ll run any prison he’s in,” a law enforcement source told MassLive.com. Geas, 51, is serving a life sentence at Hazelton for the 2003 murders of one-time mob boss Adolfo “Big Al” Bruno and associate Gary Westerman. The former West Springfield, Massachusetts, resident has not disputed his role in the death of Bulger, according to the Boston Globe. A law enforcement source said the wheelchair-bound Bulger was “badly beaten” by a group of inmates, including one who used a padlock wrapped in a sock. He was found unresponsive in his cell just after 8 a.m. https://nypost.com/2018/10/31/meet-the-mob-hitman-suspected-of-killing-whitey-bulger/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 As I understand it Connolly and Bulger knew each other as kids, and Bulger had saved Connolly from a beating once. Another thing is Southy (South Boston) is an entirely different place than the rest of Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
