Well this one's moving slowly.
I agree with LC and the prosecutor, Bulger's pursuit of immunity in the killings of 19 people, based on the alleged word of a dead investigator, is absurd and laughable.
Trial starts in June. Bulger's going down hard, imo. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
Update from today:
BOSTON - Reputed Boston gangster James "Whitey" Bulger appeared in federal court in Boston at a pretrial hearing regarding his attempts to claim immunity.
Judge Denise Casper did not immediately rule Friday on a request by Bulger's lawyers to reverse an earlier ruling barring their client from claiming immunity as a defense at his June trial.
Prosecutors say the immunity claim is "absurd."
