A mannequin with a cat on its head. Nine fedoras. A collection of porcelain cats.
All belonged to convicted mobster James “Whitey” Bulger, who was sentenced to life in prison last month.
The items are among a number of his possessions that are being auctioned off, The Las Vegas Guardian Express reports.
The proceeds will go to his victims.
“The reality is there are lots of people who would be willing to pay money for some or all of the contents of that apartment, and that money is going to victims and victims’ families. So we want to do what we can to get as much money as we can for them,” First Assistant US Attorney Jack Pirozzolo said.
