Infamous Boston gangster James “Whitey” Bulger was killed Tuesday, shortly after being transferred to a federal prison in West Virginia, a law enforcement source told The Post.

89 years old, and someone shanked him in prison.

Did someone legit shank him?

Last I heard they weren't saying how he got killed only that he got killed by someone.

But yea I'm not surprised. Some of these mfers in prison are getting even on you for others on the outside. Can't imagine someone killed an old ass guy to make a name for themselves like you hear about with rapists & child diddliers.

I heard he was in bad health anyhow. But, he was an informer playing both sides of the fence, so it was inevitable someone was going to get to him. He was a real scumbag, so the world is a better place without him.

That’s no way to treat your elders

Isn’t he a famous snitch.

You're never too old to die like a man.

89 years old. Thats a long life, especially for a gangster

Most Italian and Irish mobsters pay for protection while incarcerated, whitey mustve been put into collections...

ESPECIALLY for prison. Few guys manage such a long life in those conditions, not to mention that his was cut short. Whitey must've had genetics for longevity.

Wonder what the boys on his block are going to think of a guy that shanks a 90 year old man.
