Legendary Boston crime boss James "Whitey" Bulger, who has been on the run for more than a decade, was arrested Wednesday in Santa Monica by the FBI.
Bulger, 81, has been the subject of several books and was the inspiration for "The Departed," a 2006 Martin Scorsese film staring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon and Jack Nicholson.
Bulger fled Boston in late 1994 as federal agents were about to arrest him in connection with 21 killings, racketeering and other crimes that spanned the early 1970s to the mid-1980s.
Congratulations FBI!

Good work..
The Bureau gets a bad wrap too much.
He was probably like the man that robbed the bank of one dollar then waited for the police to take him to jail,so he could get medical care. What could old Whitey do at 81 years old. I guess he was too old to keep running. They will have to put him in the nursing home after convicting him.
Vanessa writing for LD now?
Bad wrap? They might want to skip eating at Quizno's.
Now maybe they can circle the wagons around the CHIPS of this world......
Whitey Bulger was on the loose for 15 years. Persistence and good investigating kept him on the rasar. You gentlemen at LD have those same qualities. I pty the criminals who you are hounddogging because their day is coming.
Why can't they do something here in Liberty County???
There's a good article about this on the DrudgeReport today, June 23.
Congratulations to the F.B.I. on their capture, but has anyone else seen those Liberty P.D. "Reno 911" Bike Patrol pictures of Chip Fairchild and gang on I-dineout. Truly amazing.
Hey, Donna Brown is getting sued...
By multiple people.
Why aren't you covering this?
Oh, I forgot. You are a little biased.
newsflash: duhhhNesa ditches one reporter (Stephen Thomas- who follows her predecessor, going to the Humble HCN papers. Funny, her reporters get the promotion, not her!) and hires a KSHN reporter. She's documenting Bill Buchanan as her confederate and bedfellow. Further, the newbie is the wife of her VFD reporter, Dalton Gregory, and frequent online assassin team member.

Stephen Thomas getting promoted? well, duh! His pieces are far too scholarly for the Advocate's dimwitted readers. Granted, they're still vintage liberalism, and enviro-wacko-ism, but what else do you expect from duhhNesa's financial backers? For a prime example example:
