Whitey Bulger Convicted




Infamous Boston mob boss Whitey Bulger was convicted on 30 counts including 11 counts of murder on Monday afternoon. It has been twenty-five years since the Boston Globe first broke the story about the Boston FBI scandal where government corruption facilitated racketeering, murder and gun-running for the IRA. Now the central figure behind it is facing life in prison. Although Bulger plans to appeal, solid proof coupled with the shear number of counts make it impossible to imagine that he will ever be free again.
