| The FBI's notion of what Whitey Bulger looks like today |
Bulger, the basis for Jack Nicholson's character in The Departed, ran the Irish faction of the Boston mob while serving as an FBI informant, ratting out Italian rivals to diminish the competition. He became close to his FBI handler, John Connolly Jr., who tipped Bulger off before he could be arrested, allowing him to bolt town with his girlfriend, Catherine Greig. (Connolly is currently serving a 10-year sentence.)
Bulger was last seen in London in 2002. The FBI believes he has money stashed in banks around the world, funding his life on the lam. Though there's been a flurry of recent sightings in Florida, he's also thought to have traveled from Ireland to South America.
If you happen to see the guy, it'll be worth your time to call the FBI. There's a $2 million reward for his arrest.
