Ep. 173 - James “Whitey” Bulger

from Last Days Hosted by TMZ

On June 22, 2011, James “Whitey” Bulger — the notorious Boston crime boss whose decades-long reign of organized crime, alleged involvement in multiple murders, and shocking ability to evade capture made him one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives — was arrested in Santa Monica, California, after more than sixteen years on the run. His capture marked the end of one of the most infamous manhunts in American history, exposing a web of corruption, violence, and FBI misconduct that blurred the line between law enforcement and organized crime. Years after his conviction and 2018 prison killing, Whitey Bulger remains one of the most infamous figures in modern criminal history, with his life continuing to fuel books, documentaries, and endless debate over the true extent of his power and influence. Hosts: Jason Beckerman & Derek Kaufman
