Utilising FBI agents, victims’ families, Bulger’s defense lawyers, gangsters, journalists, and police officers – Academy Award-nominated director Joe Berlinger (Paradise Lost) examines how infamous gangster Whitey Bulger was simultaneously aided by the FBI as a police informant and allowed to reign over a criminal empire in South Boston for decades. Captured after sixteen years in hiding, Bulger is brought to trial, but as the trial unfolds and the main players are brought together, seeds of uncertainty are sown about long-held beliefs surrounding Bulger’s story. At the emotional centre of this debate, are the victims and victims’ families, who to this day continue to seek truth, justice and accountability after decades of smokescreens and misinformation. WHITEY: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. JAMES J. BULGER is a startling exposure of corruption, deceit and the frailty of the justice system.

Great documentary. "Whitey" lived one hell of a life. Not saying he was an angel. Far from it. But the FBI definitely have a lot to answer for. (Nothing new there then.) Keep an open mind and you'll enjoy this ⭐⭐⭐⭐
