Boston Mobster Whitey Bulger Lets Nature Do His Dirty Work

In Howie Carr's column in the Boston Herald he offers a view of Boston mobster James "Whitey" Bulger's defense strategy. 

The feds have it wrong. Whitey Bulger isn’t trying to stall his trial until he dies.

“Won’t work,” said one of his former colleagues. “Too many witnesses.”
