WHITEY WON'T RAT; CATHERINE GREIG LIKED BAD BOYS

GREIG AND EX-HUBBY

1. WHITEY WON'T TURN CANARY : A former member of Whitey Bulger's notorious Winter Hill Gang says that the most powerful Irish-Amercian gangster in the country won't flip for the feds. His secrets will go with him to the grave. The source, who didn't want to be identified for fairly obvious reasons told the Boston Herald: “He knows he’s never going to get out. The only one he may try to help is her. He does love her, and he’ll never see her again."
However, the former lawyer for one-time Bulger rival Francis “Cadillac Frank” Salemme says that the gangster's history of informing for the FBI says otherwise. He said: "He's a bonafide rat."

2. CATHERINE GREIG HAD A THING FOR BAD BOYS: She was a blond beauty who turned the heads of neighborhood troublemakers. But according ton the Boston Herald, Catherine Greig looked like an
aging mob floozy when she was nabbed with Whitey Bulger in California. A friend who grew up with her in South Boston said: “She had a thing for guys, maybe bad boys, who went towards the darker side. She was a sweetheart, though.” WHO IS CATHERINE GREIG?

MOB BOSS WHITEY BULGER CAUGHT IN CALIFORNIA

DAPPER DON

THE DEPARTED

NOTORIOUS mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger has been sensationally captured after nearly 16-years on the run. 

The FBI caught up with  onetime pooh-bah of the notorious Winter Hill Gang - and inspiration for Jack Nicholson's whacked out gang chief in The Departed - living happily with his longtime girlfriend Catherine Greig, 60, in Santa Monica, CA. 

He was arrested without incident and it's thought he will now be returned to Boston where he is wanted for the murders of 19 men and women along with a litany of other charges. 

Bulger has been on the run for 16-years after fleeing in January 1995 when he was tipped by a former Boston FBI agent that he was about to be indicted.
Nicknamed ‘Whitey’ because of his shock of bright platinum hair, grew up in a gritty South Boston housing project and spent time in the notorious Alcatraz prison when he a youngster.  

On his release he rose to the top of the city's violent Winter Hill Gang, a largely Irish mob that ran loan-sharking, gambling and drug rackets in the city.

But what was unknown for many years, was at the same time as his reign of terror on the streets, Bulger was a top echelon FBI informant who provided information on his gang's main rival, the New England Mob. 

Using his unique position he tightened his vice like grip on the city's underworld, until the extent of his crimes and his close relationship with the G-men became clear. 

Just as the were about to swoop he was warned by John Connolly Jr, an FBI agent who had made Bulger an FBI informant 20 years earlier.

Connolly was convicted of racketeering in May 2002 for protecting Bulger and his cohort, Stephen ‘The Rifleman’ Flemmi, also an FBI informant.

He became a huge source of embarrassment for the agency as they battled a public perception that it had not tried very hard to find him.

Now it looks like he will finally face justice after a tip from the public finally revealed his whereabouts.  

It appears a high profile campaign, including a TV ad been launched during programs popular with women roughly Greig's age - pointing out that she had several plastic surgeries and regularly went to beauty salons, worked. 

Lets just hope they don't lose him again.

HEAT'S ON WHITEY BULGER'S MOLL, CATHERINE GREIG

FBI investigators are going to refocus their energies in bringing Boston mob kingpin Whitey Bulger to justice by turning up the heat on his longtime moll: Catherine Greig. G-Men believe that Greig is the key to finding Bulger, who has been on the lam since 1995. The onetime pooh-bah of the notorious Winter Hill Gang--and inspiration for Jack Nicholson's whacked out gang chief in The Departed--is wanted for the murders of 19 men and women along with a litany of other charges. The FBI is offering a $2 million reward for the capture of the 81-year-old killer. The Boston Herald has also suggested that Bulger could be dead and that the Feds may just want to know where, ahem,
the body is buried.

Greig, 59, is a one-time dental hygienist, who has an outstanding warrant for her arrest for harboring a federal fugitive. Bulger has loads of cash and keeps in good shape, loves books and is an animal lover. He was last spotted in London in 2002.
