James Whitey Bulger was captured early this morning in Santa Monica, California on a tip given by an individual that seemed to recognize the now aged Boston Irish mobster and his wife. The two individuals were apprehended by cuffed by a SWAT team.
During the capture process, the two did not resist arrest and came along willingly. Bulger was heard saying something along the lines of "after all these years, looks like the party is finally over".
There are no major words on whether the individuals were beaten to confess their crimes. However, they will be appearing before a Boston tribunal for their actions in a string of crimes ranging from racketeering and robbery to murder.
Furthermore, Bulger's girlfriend will be facing charges (likely) for her part in harboring a fugitive. Bulger has been on the FBI's most wanted list for many years and the individual that gave away his position is entitled to a reward of 2.1 million dollars. That's a reasonable sum.
In any case, we will continue to cover this developing story for you as it continues to unfold.
