Boston Globe reporters Kevin Cullen and Shelley Murphy have penned a new biography on mobster James “Whitey” Bulger , which reveals some interesting tidbits about the one-time fugitive accused of killing 19 people.
The book, “Whitey Bulger: America’s Most Wanted Gangster and the Manhunt that Brought Him to Justice,” talks about his brooding in his prison cell and how he had been willing to be executed if the feds let his girlfriend Catherine Greig go free.
Ticklethewire.com reported on the content of the book by the Globe reporters on Feb. 11, but mistakenly attributed the content to another new book on Bulger by authors Dick Lehr and Gerard O’Neill that was cited in the Boston Herald.
