James 'Whitey' Bulger ran the largely Irish mob in Boston in the 1970s and ’80s, later becoming one of the nation’s most-wanted fugitives.
According to the FBI, Geas and DeCologero are accused of striking Bulger in the head several times, causing his death. Both are charged with aiding and abetting first-degree murder and assault resulting in serious bodily injury. Geas also faces a charge of murder by a federal inmate while serving a life sentence.
FBI Jacksonville acknowledged the U.S. Marshals, Ocala Police Department and Marion County Sheriff's Office for assisting in the arrest. Geas and DeCologero were identified as suspects shortly after Bulger’s death, according to law enforcement officials at the time, but they were not charged as the investigation dragged on for years. They were placed in solitary confinement throughout the probe, family members told The Boston Globe.
A prison workers’ union official told The Associated Press in 2018 that sending Bulger to the troubled federal penitentiary that housed other New England gangsters was like giving him a “death sentence.”
