Thug on trial, day 1
By adamg on Thu, 06/13/2013 - 7:09am
No more "alleged" about it. Whitey Bulger's lawyer, Jay Carney, yesterday admitted his client was a loansharking, drug-dealing thug. Just not a government-informing thug. From the Globe, which provides a cast of characters.
WBUR has more on Carney's attempt to turn the trial into a referendum on government corruption.
Howie Carr is impressed at how Carney is trying to paint a government witness as more of a psychopath than his own client. Peter Gelzinis considers Whitey's attempt to preserve his legacy.
