Three men have been charged in connection with the death of James"Whitey" Bulger, the Boston crime boss who was killed in prison.FILE - This file June 23, 2011, booking photo provided by the U.S. Marshals Service shows James"Whitey" Bulger. The family of the slain Boston gangster plans to file a wrongful death claim against the federal government in September 2019, following Bulger's death in prison in 2018.
Geas and DeCologero were identified as suspects shortly after Bulger’s death, according to law enforcement officials at the time, but they remained uncharged as the investigation dragged on for years. They were placed in solitary confinement throughout the probe, family members told The Boston Globe.
A federal law enforcement official told The Associated Press after Bulger’s death that disciplinary issues prompted Bulger’s transfer to USP Hazelton. The official insisted on anonymity because he was not authorized to release details. In February 2018, Bulger threatened an assistant supervisor at the prison in Florida, telling her “your day of reckoning is coming.”
