The New Details Surrounding The Attack On Whitey Bulger Are Scarier Than Any Halloween Story You'll Hear Today

Source –  Whitey Bulger was targeted for a mob hit and the killers did what mob killers do with so-called “rats” — they try to cut out their tongue and gouge their eyes out.

Sources at the USP Hazelton prison in West Virginia tell TMZ, Bulger was killed in his cell at around 6 AM Tuesday, NOT in a common area as first reported. We’re told 4 inmates walked into the cell where Whitey was sitting in his wheelchair. 

I don’t usually do death blogs, that’s a Francis thing, but this story is too wild not to share. It reads like something out of an old mobster movie because, well, I guess it is. Whitey was ultimately met with the same brutality that he doled out for YEARS on the streets of Boston at the hands of the people he fucked over the most– the mob. We talked about it on Barstool Breakfast this morning but reading the story makes it all the more real.

They brutally beat him with a lock in a sock and used a shiv to try and gouge his eyes out. They also attempted to cut out his tongue. We’re told there was a lot of blood in Bulger’s mouth but we don’t know if the tongue was actually removed. 

We’re told surveillance cameras captured the 4 inmates walking into Bulger’s cell and walking out with their clothes clearly bloodied. The attack was not caught on video.

We’re told the killers went back to their cells, changed out of their bloody clothes and then walked back to Bulger’s cell with a mop and a bucket to clean up the mess.

Prison officials believe it was mob retaliation because Bulger was considered a rat and an informant who helped put away several members of the mob. The officials believe the mob put out a hit on Bulger and removal of the eyes and tongue are signs of such a hit.

It almost makes you feel bad for him until you remember that he was one of the most ruthless killers of all time. Whatever. I guess the old saying is true: If you don’t want your tongue cut out while you sit helplessly in your wheelchair inside a maximum security prison, don’t go to jail for murder. But enough about this piece of shit. It’s Halloween and the Red Sox are having their parade today so go out and enjoy yourselves. Hopefully we never have to talk about this guy again.
