Howie Carr, (seen in the below photo) Boston Herald columnist and author Ratman: The Trial and Conviction of Whitey Bulger, offers a column on the death
of Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger.
Two final
questions remain: Where are Whitey’s millions, his ill-gotten gains in cocaine
cash?
And who’s got it,
or is planning to get it?
The monster was
murdered at a federal pen in West Virginia yesterday at age 89 — better
late than never, I guess.
Was he murdered
by a hit squad — from the Mafia, maybe, or perhaps even the Deep State?
Whitey knew where a lot of bodies were buried — figuratively as well as
literally. Those were the rumors anyway yesterday.
“It’s perfect
karma,” said Johnny Martorano, the co-founder of the Winter Hill Gang. “He
ratted all these guys into prison, and that’s where he gets it in the end.
Karma. Everybody I know is celebrating tonight.”
That would
include me, by the way. I understand that you’re not supposed to speak ill of
the dead. But there’s another old saying I remember, from Winston Churchill:
There is nothing so exhilarating as being shot at without effect.
But you know what
comes close to that kind of exhilaration? Having a guy put out a murder
contract on you and then he’s the one who gets murdered.
Like Martorano
said, it’s perfect karma.
