The FBI suspects that Top Ten Fugitive, Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger is hiding out in Europe, Time magazine reports.
A team of investigators are ” keeping a close eye on Europe,” Time reported. “The team has an idea of which country Bulger is possibly in but won’t say for fear of alerting him.”
Bulger, who is a suspect in 19 murders, was last spotted in London in 2002 by a businessman at the gym of the Meridien Hotel in the city’s Piccadilly Circus, Time reported.
Bulger has been on the lam for about 15 years. The FBI is offering a $2 million reward for his arrest.
The magazine reported that Bulger told people one day he expected to be on the lam.
