Working with James ‘Whitey’ Bulger only ever ended one way, reports RYLE DWYER

A MASSACHUSETTS judge has ordered fugitive mob boss James “Whitey” Bulger and a cohort to pay $15 million (€10m) each to the family of a 26-year-old woman after finding them liable for her 1981 murder.

Former FBI agent John Connolly was sentenced yesterday to 40 years in prison for the 1982 mob-related killing of a Miami gambling executive.

JOHN McIntyre was one of life’s misfits who got mixed up with the wrong crowd, became implicated in drugs and gun-running, and ended up being murdered in 1984.

A FORMER FBI agent who tipped off two mobsters that they were about to be indicted has been jailed for more than 10 years in a case that exposed an overly cosy relationship between the bureau and its underworld informants.
