    Boston mob boss James ‘Whitey’ Bulger, 89, was murdered by a fellow inmate with ties to the mafia in a West Virginia federal prison shortly after he was transferred there. According to one congressman, Mueller and those serving under him in the FBI aided Bulger in eliminating mob competitors and recently Mueller turned over an alleged scheme to pay off women to fabricate sexual assault allegations against him to the FBI. The murder occurred outside of the field of vision of security cameras where Bulger was beaten with a lock in a sock and had his eyes gouged out. The...

    Gangland serial slayer James "Whitey" Bulger was killed shortly after being moved to a high-security federal prison in West Virginia, the Herald has confirmed. Bulger, 89, was convicted in 2013 of being complicit in 11 murders in Massachusetts, Florida and Oklahoma. His attorney, Hank Brennan, who tried to appeal Bulger's life sentence all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, declined comment pending notification by the Bureau of Prisons. Bulger arrived at USP Hazelton yesterday. He was found unresponsive at 8:20 this morning, according to a statement from the Bureau of Prisons, which provided no other details. "Life-saving measures were...

    Gennaro “Jerry” Angiulo, who ruled Boston’s Mafia with an iron fist for two decades, died today, sources have confirmed. Angiulo suffered a broken hip earlier this month while fighting a losing battle with kidney failure. The ex-gangster was 90 years old. Angiulo had returned to his compound in Nahant upon his release from prison in 2007 after a 21-year stint behind bars for his 1986 conviction on federal racketeering, loansharking and illegal gambling charges. The reign of the former New England La Cosa Nostra underboss was ended by his rivals in the South Boston Irish mob, James “Whitey” Bulger and...

    It was either Stevie Flemmi or John Martorano. There was one get-out-of-jail-free card left on the table and it was reserved for a serial killer. So John Martorano walks, after doing 12 years for 20 murders and nobody is happy. But no matter how wrong Johnny Martorano’s deal seems, it could have been worse. It could have been Stevie Flemmi who ratted out Martorano, rather than vice versa. The Rifleman might have grabbed the get-out-of-jail-free card. Stevie Flemmi, the pedophile who murdered his own stepdaughter, whom he began raping when she was 13. Stevie Flemmi, the drug dealer, frame artist,...
