Whitey Bulger, infamous Boston mob boss, killed in prison, multiple reports say

It appears he died quite violently.
Reports said he was beaten to death in a wheelchair, and who ever did it attempted to pry his eyes out.
This is a Mafia ritual on civilians that rat on mob activity.
If you read what he did to others when he was active in Boston... Live by the Sword.... Die by the Sword.

A little birdie told me Bulger had a scheduled deposition next week to expose FBI corruption.

Now hes dead.

Go figure.

The failing New York Times couldn't help blaming this on Trump. It is freakin' unbelievable what the Times has become. You can't read a single article they print anymore without seeing their bias. Even if they have to do a pretzel-twist of words, they somehow manage to blame any and everything on our president. I, for one, am sick of this bunch.

A shortage of correctional officers has become chronic in the Trump administration, leaving some prison workers feeling ill-equipped and unsafe on the job, according to a recent New York Times investigation. Some prisons are so pressed for correctional officers that they regularly compel teachers, nurses, secretaries and other support staff to step in.

This may have been a mob hit according to this article

Gangster James “Whitey” Bulger was “beaten to death” by at least two inmates shortly after his transfer to a West Virginia federal prison, The New York Times reports. One Federal Bureau of Prisons employee told the newspaper that the inmates involved in the killing at U.S. Penitentiary, Hazelton are thought to be “affiliated with the mob.” A senior law-enforcement official said that he was told “an organized crime figure was believed to be responsible” for Bulger’s killing, according to the Times. A prison worker also disclosed to the newspaper that Bulger was transferred to the Hazelton prison because he “threatened a staff member” at his previous prison in Sumterville, Florida. Bulger, a South Boston mobster, was serving a life sentence for 11 murders.
