He murdered 19 people, no resting in peace needed

RobertKK · 30-10-2018 08:17PM

He can't complain about how his life ended, none of his victims that he killed could either.

Mantis Toboggan · 30-10-2018 08:20PM

Think it's one for the true crime forum lads..

No, I'm sure he don't complain - he's dead.

19 that we know of. Rumoured to have ordered many more

DJIMI TRARORE · 30-10-2018 08:27PM

I'd say it will never be known how many he murdered or ordered but he lived some life,not that I condone what he did. As someone else said decent film too

He killed a gang members ex girlfriend because he felt she knew too much about their business.

She didn't deserve the end she got. He'd kill people for ridiculous reasons all the time.

Even his own crew thought he was insane. The Kevin Weeks book 'Brutal' is a great insight into Bulger's sick world.

DEFTLEFTHAND · 30-10-2018 08:44PM

FBI were complict in many of these killings.

Turning a blind eye because he was feeding info on the Italians.

All Seeing Eye · 30-10-2018 08:50PM

A friend to Ireland. Tried to help us in our struggle against British occupation. Should be commended for that at least

The FBI agent he was giving the info to, in turn told Whitey the FBI were coming after him hence he went into hiding. The agent was imprisoned for it after iirc

Oasis1974 · 30-10-2018 09:01PM

Any relation to the Bulger who killed the young lad in Liverpool?

involved in racketeering, extortion and arms trafficing to the IRA in the 80`s.
He also won 14m dollars in the Massachusetts State Lottery. He owned the shop that sold the ticket :eek:

Jack is ready and waiting for the call

Here's Whitey

You know what they say.

Storchers get scritches.

brendanwalsh · 30-10-2018 11:50PM

Live by the sword die by the sword. He gave us some great movies and books. Thoughts with his victim's families and his brother

PapaOscar · 30-10-2018 11:52PM

89 years of age, thats a good innings. Apparently he had his eyes gouged out. Bad way to go. He was about to spill the beans big time on the FBI.

His murder is being blamed on lack of resources.

LOL

'Black Mass', Johnny Depp played him.

'The Departed' as well, maybe?

Seriously who can take American law enforcement or the prison service seriously. Three homicides in that prison in a month.

Spill the beans on the FBI? Or to the FBI.

James Bulger was the name of the murdered kid, not the killers.

There was recent Johnny Depp movie about Bulger specifically. Black Mass.
And Jack Nicholson's character in The Departed was largely based on Bulger - although the story itself was based on a previous movie from Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong movie is pretty good too, but the departed follows it so closely it's pretty much spoiled as far as plot goes

The Departed is depaaaaaarted.
