Star witness refutes paedophile claim by pointing finger at Bulger

The star witness at the trial of James “Whitey” Bulger, the reputed gangster’s former partner, tried to counter the defence’s claims that he’s a paedophile by lobbing the same accusation back at Bulger.

Stephen “The Rifleman” Flemmi had acknowledged in testimony that he engaged in oral sex with his longtime girlfriend’s teenage daughter, Deborah Hussey, who had called him “Daddy.”

Flemmi also testified that Bulger strangled Hussey after she started using drugs, getting arrested and dropping their names when she got in trouble.
