Heard this earlier today, gonna look more into the story later. Obviously, there’s a lot of people with good reason to kill Bulger but it seems odd now of all times somebody killed him. Whitey Bulger or not, how much street cred do you really get for killing an 89 year old in jail?
EDIT: Apparently, he had just gotten transferred to that prison earlier in the day. So that makes a lot more sense, I thought he was still in the same prison as when he was sentenced in 2013. Basically, somebody who had a beef with him was finally able to get to him.

They move him to a new facility and he’s dead a couple days later. Sounds suspicious but good riddance

Wonder if it was deliberate on the part of prison authorities? It's not unheard of for notorious criminals to be moved to a different prison (or a different section of their current prison) where it's conveniently easier for other inmates with a grudge to attack them.

There was no doubt a big risk moving him to another prison and i'm sure the system knew that but for it to happen a day after relocation is crazy
No telling how long whoever was in there was planning to get him or even possibly paid to do so

The world didn't lose much of value, but on the other hand you do need to protect your snitches.

It's not unheard of for notorious criminals to be moved to a different prison (or a different section of their current prison) where it's conveniently easier for other inmates with a grudge to attack them. Something definitely seems shady here. Even before he was killed there was apparently a lot of questions being asked about why he was getting moved. Especially to a prison that had had multiple murders in recent months. And while not confirmed, it’s rumoured it was a very violent, send a message kinda murder. Not a quiet shank and let him bleed out sorta deal. There’s a lot of reasons to be suspicious on this one |

And now, another...  Useless Fact. Before he was UFC President, Dana White ran a boxing class at a Boston gym and Bulger's right hand guy demanded $2000 or else. Dana promptly got a flight to Vegas instead and got back together with childhood friends Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta. A few years later, Zuffa bought the UFC and White became president. This has been another... Useless Fact. |

This has been another... Useless Fact. Yeah, that's a story I don't entirely take at face value. The Fertitta's are strongly believed to be VERY closely tied to very, very powerful mobsters. If not directly involved themselves. I doubt Dana was just getting shaken down randomly, that dude was into something. |
