Bidders interested in buying items that belonged to convicted gangster James “Whitey” Bulger got a close up look at the collection. WBZ-TV's David Robichaud reports.
Love how the people call him a coward but where were their Ball's when James was at the top??? Why didn't these "brave" people stop him!? It's easy to call him names now he's no threat.
800k divided 21 ways is just over 38k. Not a bad start, most Victims families from this type of thing get nothing or even knew what happened to their loved one.
Why are people bashing the victims families saying "this is pathetic they only want to take his money"?! Whitey killed their husbands and fathers therefore taking a lot of potential money from them let alone the heartbreak of dealing with losing a loved one. The government ordered him to pay the families $19 million which they will obv never get so why shouldn't they be allowed to recoup whatever they can with the one chance they have. I'm sure it's nice to sit at home and criticize someone who's position you'll hopefully never be in but these aren't rich people. They're from Southie and don't have the luxury of a husband or sons to provide for and take care of them thanks to Whitey. These aren't all families of gangsters, they're family members of innocent people Whitey killed. Can't knock the hustle lol
I wanted it too. But you can get an exact duplicate, made by the same guy. Google "Crazy Pig". The guy is in the UK. You give them your ring size and they make you one. I think its called the Psycho Killer Skull. I got one, its great
Take his money? He murdered these people's fathers and husbands. Took their businesses. Basically took their chance at living a fruitful and happy life. Why shouldn't they be allowed to make some money to feed their families? I don't understand all you people criticizing the victims. These aren't wealthy people. They're middle to lower class families from Southie probably scraping by since their family was torn apart by Whitey. The Gov ordered him to pay them $19 million that they're never going to get.
This is pathetic. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Paying homage to a killer. Nice broadcasting. And, the newscasters look like there having too much fun. "So round up the family and come on down folks. Join us in glorifying this man as we auction off his personal belongings so we can keep his folk lord around for years to come". Next they will want to erect a statue of the guy. I became enamored with the story years ago, but once you realize what a ruthless and evil person he was there's no need to right endless books, produce multiple movies and conduct interviews about the subject matter. There are far more worthy sin our society that you could be reporting on other then this piece crap. Move on people and stop talking about this guy he's not worthy of any more of your time. And, Why in the world would the wife of a deceased victim of Bulger even want to step foot in that place is beyond me, but that's her business. I just can;t fathom stepping foot in that place if he killed one of my loved ones.
*They're, not there, not doing it to glorify him, they did it to raise part of the $19 mil Whitey was ordered to pay the victims families. He was obv never going to tell the feds where the rest of his money was stashed so they decided to try to at least get something for them. Makes sense to me. And as long as people, like yourself once was, are interested in crime figured they will continue to *write, not right lol, books about these guys.

Hence the auction.
I see he ended up owning Chris Nilan's Stanley Cup Champions ring that he won playing for the Montreal Canadiens. That's sad.
