Maybe we can buy a book and send it to ole Gordie!
Quote:BOSTON — When authorities searched the apartment of Boston gangster James "Whitey" Bulger, they found $822,000 in cash and a large collection of guns hidden in holes cut into the walls.
Other than the cash, there were few valuables. Books, hats, sweatshirts and household items bought at discount stores filled the rent-controlled Santa Monica, Calif., apartment the notorious crime boss shared with his longtime girlfriend while he was on the run.
But authorities are hoping they can attract buyers for Bulger's belongings so they can compensate his victims.
Bulger's possessions will be sold to the highest bidders during a criminal forfeiture auction expected to be held over the next few months.

Gordie likes people to think he was some big part of all that but It was stated in Wikipedia that he was a small time thug affiliated with the gang.
And believe it or not I think Gordie himself had that part removed.
