Famous Mob Boss Whitey Bulger living in Santa Monica

FBI most wanted top tenner and notorious Boston mob boss Whitey Bulger was arrested in Santa Monica. Bulger's famously the inspiration for the Martin Scorsese movie The Departed, played by Jack Nicholson. Bulger fled Boston in 1994 just as he was about to be arrested in connection with "at least 19 killings, racketeering and other crimes that spanned the early 1970s to the mid-1980s." This 81 year old was living the quite life in Apartment 33 in the Princess Eugenia apartments a few blocks from the Third Street Promenade, along with his dental hygienist companion.  There don't seem to be any apartments up for rent in the Princess Eugenia, but we're sure there will be one just as soon as Bulger's trial wraps up. The pair went by the names of Charles and Carol Gasko on their apartment directory and, perhaps Bulger's final crime, were reported to have a dog in a complex that does not allow pets.
