Whitey Bulger Found Guilty Of Racketeering, Conspiracy
From Fox News, where you can read the entire story:
Jurors in the trial of James “Whitey” Bulger have found him guilty of racketeering and conspiracy.
The federal jury began deliberating Tuesday and deliberated over five days.
Bulger, 83, is charged with a litany of crimes in a sweeping 32-count racketeering indictment, including 19 killings, extortion, money laundering and weapons violations.
Within the main racketeering charge against Bulger are 33 separate criminal acts, including all of the killings. The jury must find that Bulger committed at least two of the acts within 10 years of each other to find him guilty of racketeering.
On Monday, after 45 minutes of deliberating in federal court in Boston, the jury came into the courtroom and asked for a clarification from the judge.
They asked if they found someone else is guilty, whether or not that would make Bulger “automatically” guilty as well because he’s associated.
J.W. Carney Jr., who is serving as Bulger’s attorney, argued that evidence proven against someone else doesn’t mean Bulger is guilty.
In her response, U.S. District Judge Denise Casper said jurors they must find Bulger guilty separately.
