I know it is amazing. I have been following it. I grew up near Boston and there was always stories of him and raymond patriarca from RI that we would hear. Patriarca died in the 80s I think. It is interesting seeing how the Whitey thing plays out.

Read somewhere that he was hiding in plain sight. The FBI was continuing to extract info from observing him and finally made the bust when the well ran dry.

Nothing fascinating about someone using power and control for evil. He simply needs to be stripped of his power and control.
Many think of him as a sort of "Robin Hood" figure. To me there is a certain nostalgia of shaking down crooks such as drug dealers or bookies. No one cares to mention philanthropic efforts.
He won the lottery for Christ sakes! That's like every gamblers fantasy! Well, maybe he didn't really win it?

If he was a true made man he killed which means he did more than shake down a few fellow criminals. The mob supposedly had a rule that they didn't mess with law abiding citizens but they reportedly would threaten whole families for one persons actions. Power and control ruins people and organizations. I can't see gangsters and mobsters any different than any other power hungry group. That's why most of them end up being real deal snitches, meaning giving information about people they have done dirt with. I have no fascination or true respect for gangsters or mobsters.
I am really appalled that this society puts such people on a pedestal

I sometime talk about people I know who are in law enforcement on this site. A friend os mine who I call big chilito once bugged whitey's car, it was his first case.
He always says whitey would have been nothing had it not been for his corrupt midget brother.
When you have the FBI, Boston PD, State PD, politicians etc paid off you own the state. I'm glad big chilito put a lot of those crooked cops behind bars.
