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 initiated immediately by responding staff. Mr. Bulger was subsequently pronounced dead by the Preston County Medical Examiner," the statement said.

I have “The Brothers Bulger” book which is excellent. Whitey was a vicious murderer who killed many people including women. Howie had to have police protection while Whitey was around. Oh, incidently, our boy Robert Mueller has some connections with Whitey because Mueller was the AG in Massachusetts when Whitey was on his reign of terror. What Whitey would do would be to rat on the other mobs while the Boston FBI would look the other way. Mueller also sent four innocent men to jail for murder. The recent murder of Whitey looks suspicious to some people because of the timing, since when did they have to move an 89 year old convict to a new prison all the way from Arizona to West Virginia? Whitey was killed within a couple of days in the new prison—the door had been left open which allowed the murderers to get in. The murderer was from another crime family.
Don’t forget that Whitey was the brother of Billy Bulger who was the head of the Massachusetts Senate for many years. It always helps if you have connections.
I hope Whitey wrote out his memoirs and has them hidden some place. Whitey was known to keep large sums of cash in cash deposit boxes all around the country. Maybe Whitey has settled some scores by writing down everything he knew about who done him wrong. After doing all of those favors for the FBI all those years he must not have been very happy about being thrown in the clinker.
wouldn’t THAT be poetic justice...
Since he left his stuff all in many hiding places maybe he gave the directions to some people that he knows.
Well aware Typical mass of two $h!ts politics.
the ultimate revenge from the grave
The FBI made sure Bulger remained free for years. Burger had too much dirt on the dirty Boston FBI. After the statute of limitations passed the FBI reluctantly arrested him. Recently, he was ready to testify against Mueller. Big mistake.
This is a stupid thread. People are posting about the 'Boston Mob' who obviously know nothing. Anybody who posts about 'the Boston Mob' is ignorant of what was going on.
Also, they're making jokes about a bad guy being murdered who was ready to testify about people like Mueller.
Far be it by me, since I know there is no depth too deep for them to stoop, but what concrete information have you seen that he was turning rat?
It is a deliciously conspiratorial theory I must admit.
