Interview With 'Whitey' Bulger’s Former FBI Handler John Connolly | Greater Boston

Emily Rooney interviews former FBI agent John Connolly, who was mobster Whitey Bulger’s handler. While a confidential informant for the FBI, Bulger and his associates committed several murders.
Connolly was convicted on racketeering charges after a trial showed that he fed information to Bulger that allowed him to continue to evade justice. The 1998 Greater Boston interview touches on Connolly’s association with the Irish-American mob and his continuous proclamation of innocence.

[@bystandah9626]

+El Leeway Agreed. Rico was actually supposed to go to trial at the same time as Connolly and Flemmi. The bastard died from a heart attack a few days before he was supposed to be in court. Rico got off easy, it would seem.

[@gooniegoogoo8673]

I started off not liking this guy but by the end of the interview I found myself believing about 90% of what he said. I think he was partly scapegoated. He did what he had to do in order to complete the mission. It reminds me a bit of Col Jessup's situation in "A Few Good Men" (1992) where he is being questioned if he ordered the code red. "...and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way..." In other words Connolly had to side with the lesser of two evils for the greater good and he got f*cked for it. He's no saint, by the way, but they really stuck it to him when there were people guilty of far worst sh*t in the grand scheme of things who got immunity. My two cents.

[@CT2507]

lol

[@MichaelBrown-rg8oi]

Maybe, however, there have been some theories on how he really did enjoy the mobster lifestyle and its perks

[@rodciferri9626]

Yes, and the feds did Connolly for another reason as well - to limit their liability in the inevitable civil lawsuits from the families who lost their loved ones to murder. The feds could counter the unprecedented crime spree that was caused by them looking the other way by saying: "Well, at least we took out Connolly..."

Standing up for psychopathic murderers is not at all a credibly good thing. I can't stand that people have this obsession with thinking loyalty to a horrible person is a good thing. White tortured and killed innocent people , protecting him continued that. I've personally met two people whose family members were killed by White, try explaining your concept of loyalty to them to justify how connoly isnt a dirtbag

[@TheNYgolfer]

SoFo King- Connolly was a thug serving time for racketeering and murder so no jury would have given him the time of day let alone believe anything he had to say. That's why he didn't testify. Not because he wanted to protect your boy.

Whitey was Boston's top gangster. The Italian American mob in Boston was a pale shadow of the Irish mob. The Mafia's power is greatly exaggerated. Partly as a result of the Godfather films the Italians have been elevated to the masters of the underworld. This notion is ridiculous. America is too vast and diverse for one ethnic group to control its' underworld. Connolly was by all accounts an inept agent. His prior relationship with Bulger elevated him to a position he was unequal to. He comes across well in this interview. Alas subsequent investigations and convictions prove he was lying through his teeth. On a human level I pity him. But I grieve for Bulger's many victims.

[@mikealessi7006]

At the time the Italian mafia was falling when bulger took the city.... but your way off to say the mafias power was exaggerated. You need to do your home work of its rise to power through the 30s 40s 50s 60s and 70s in America. They had power up through the highest levels of government until the RICO act when It inally began to fall. All the God father movie did was romanticized the life style. They ran all the unions and rigged all bidding wars to win construction contracts. Controlled waste and garbage removal pornography gambling casinos and that's just a few things. Do your home work
