Ex-FBI agent who tipped off mobster 'Whitey' Bulger to return to Massachusetts after medical release: report
Fox News
The disgraced FBI agent who tipped off reputed Boston mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger is reportedly returning to Massachusetts several months after being granted medical released form a Florida lock-up.
Callahan, former president of World Jai Alai, was later shot to death by John Martorano, one of Bulger’s hitmen, and his body was left in the trunk of a car in a Miami airport in 1982. Bulger ordered Callahan's killing because he feared the businessman could implicate him in a 1981 murder of another World Jai Alai executive. Callahan’s widow, Mary Callahan, told the Boston Herald Monday night that Florida prison officials have informed her that Connolly will soon return to Massachusetts.
"It must be great to get back to where you started," Mary Callahan said. "I wish my husband could come back to where he once was."
