Just a thought about the Bulger case.
Howie Carr would be someone who knows a lot about that. He covered that case a lot on his show, even before Bulger was found. It's kind of his 'thing' to get into the weeds with strange cases and corruption.
I read where Howie wrote a Trump positive book or something.
Could be a connection there. Howie has a big, loyal following who who know a lot of stuff. too.
