  • The US Marshals would have been the right choice to capture Bulger. Think about the time when Tommy Lee Jones apprehended Wesley Snipes.

  • I have been saying for years that once the US Marshals joined the hunt for Bulger, they'd have him in 6 months. Well, apparently that's what happened. The FBI were afraid of what Whitey would say, and that's why they also didn't want the Marshals involved-because they KNEW they'd catch him, and catch him quick.The Marshals did in 7 months what the FBI couldn't do in 16 years. This is also the perfect summary of the whole Whitey situation too.Bravo David Boeri!!!!

  • great piece, great reporter!

  • Wonderful job, David. I'm glad you got back to the human cost, after all the excitement of discovery.

  • David Boeri.. is the best reporter ever!!!

  • What a perfect summing-up of all the most salient points -- and what a great delivery!

  • Law and disorder!
