Catherine Greig

Bulger, 82, a longtime FBI informant, fled just before his January 1995 federal racketeering indictment after being warned by his former FBI handler that he was about to be arrested. The gangster, who had been a fixture on the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted list, was captured June 22 in Santa Monica, Calif., with Greig, 60, a former dental hygienist from Quincy. The couple had been living in a rent-controlled apartment a couple of blocks from the beach for at least 13 years, according to neighbors. The FBI allegedly found more than $800,000 in cash and 30 guns and knives concealed in the walls of the rent-controlled apartment, where the couple had been living as Charlie and Carol Gasko. FBI agents also found documents for some 15 false identities allegedly used by Bulger and Greig. Greig, who has no prior record, is being held at a Rhode Island detention facility without bail and faces a maximum of five years in prison if convicted. “If that’s what she wants to do is plead guilty, what else can you do but accept that?” said Davis, adding that he wouldn’t be disappointed if there was no trial in Greig’s case because she is not charged with any of the murders and has no prior record. “Get rid of her [case] and we can all focus on him, Whitey.”
