Whitey Bulger prison death: 3 men indicted in connection with beating death of Boston mob boss

BOSTON — Nearly four years after James “Whitey” Bulger was beaten to death in prison, three men have been indicted in connection to the fatal pummeling of the Boston mob boss.

Fotios Geas, also known as “Freddy,” 55, Paul DeCologero, also known as “Pauly,” 48, and Sean McKinnon, 36, have been charged with conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, according to the Department of Justice. Bulger was 89 years old when he died.

Geas and DeCologero are accused of striking Bulger in the head multiple times and causing his death in October 2018 while they were incarcerated at U.S. Penitentiary Hazleton in Bruceton Mills, West Virginia.
