DESCRIPTION:
It turned on Connolly saying he was a rogue agent. All the evidence is here. All the hierarchy of the FBI knew these evil men. You decide the truth!. The FBI became fearful and highly embarrassed. The FBI assigned Special Agent John Connolly the job of handling top echelon informants James "Whitey" Bulger and Stephen Flemmi, the two leaders of a vicious criminal gang. When the public learned the FBI had partnered with them for up to twenty years a huge uproar occurred. This is the story of his trial and the events surrounding it
Four Stars 66@flow rack good. "Fantastic Insight" according to Amazon Customer. I have read a number of books on the Irish mob and Whitey Bulger in particular. Many are good, but none actually analyze all the myths and stories that have been thrown around for years. This book uses a trial of an FBI agent to paint the most vivid picture of how the Mob and FBI have operated in Boston- hiding their connections from the other law enforcement agencies. IT is amazing what was uncovered in the trial of a life-long FBI agent who was put away based on testimony of convicted murderers. A worthwhile and intriguing read for anyone interested in knowing the true story behind the Irish mob, Whitey Bulger, and how people. "Finally the truth" according to Tommill. I am a retired Boston police officer who grew up in South Boston and I have known John Connolly since we were kids. I have long felt that John was a scapegoat in the F.B.I bureaucracy and Matt Connolly has proven it to be so. A well researched and well written story by a knowledgeable writer. Thoroughly enjoyed the read.
