Okay, as many of you know I’ve been fascinated with the work being done by Matt Connolly on his blog and in his book Don’t Embarrass the Family.
Now there is a new book out by two former F.B.I. agents called RICO- How Politicians, Prosecutors, and the Mob Destroyed One of the FBI’s finest Special Agents. This book changed my opinion completely on deceased and disgraced former F.B.I. agent Paul Rico (of “what do you want me to do, cry” fame). Clearly he was illegally and immorally destroyed from every possible angle. Just like John Connolly.
Interesting how Assistant U.S. Attorney Fred Wyshak’s name runs throughout both cases. Even at the state level. His tenacity is to say the least impressive.
Question, why is it that the more I read about Fred Wyshak and the things he has does to make sure testimony is “truthful” the more I think of Annie Dookhan? Just saying.
So anyway as I became more familiar with the case one thing struck me.
Kevin Cullen and the Boston Globe knowingly aided and abetted the attempted murder of Whitey Bulger. Exactly what John Connolly is serving 40 years in Florida for. The murder was successful in his case. (Note: This was after being found not guilty of the same charge in the federal case here in Boston. Double jeopardy you say? Hahaha, that’s so cute. So much learn about the U.S. Attorneys’ office my friend, so much to learn)
John Connolly was indicted by the feds and state of Florida for letting mobsters know certain wise guys were informants. This act, it was reasonably argued, was a death sentence for those informants. The proof of course was when they ended up dead.
So years ago when Whitey Bulger was still around and folks like Matt Connolly were working feverishly at the state level to indict him, Kevin Cullen learned from his handlers, I mean “sources” at the F.B.I. that Whitey Bulger was an F.B.I. informant.
So what did the Globe do? It printed it. So to the F.B.I., Kevin Cullen, and The Globe it’s obvious that the life of Whtey Bulger is worthless as opposed to other murderers and hoodlums. I’d like to know what Deity the pray to and code of ethics they adhere to when deciding who lives and who dies?
This all came out in court when corrupt yet immunized F.B.I. supervisor John Morris admitted he wanted Whitey killed for his own corrupt and immoral reasons so he used Cullen and the Globe to get the hit done.
Next time you see family members of dead wise guys and young women killed by their boyfriend and notorious women beater Steve Flemmi usually with Mob lawyer Tony Cardinale holding their hands and complaining how Catherine Grieg and John Connolly are among those responsible for their loved one’s death ask yourself about the morals of Kevin Cullen and The Boston Globe.
If John Connolly’s been indicted and convicted for tipping off other mobsters about a rat shouldn’t Kevin Cullen and Globe editors also have been indicted?
I just don’t see the difference here. Do you?
