BOSTON GANG BOSS WHITEY BULGER GOES TO TRIAL

Whitey Bulger is the last of America's old school gangsters and sometime this week he will go on trial for a litany of crimes -- including 19 murders. The man who owned Boston for decades --and inspired Jack Nicholson's crazed mob boss in The Departed -- was finally run to ground after years on the run with his mob moll in 2011.
Now 83, the crime lord's platinum hair is gone and the remnants of his feared Winter Hill Gang are dead, in prison  or if they're lucky, scattered to the wind. Can the old crook pull another miracle?

"He's a survivor. He's had a very long shelf life in a profession where that is not typical," said Dick Lehr, who wrote Bulger's biography Whitey: The Life of America's Most Notorious Mob Boss "The many faces of Whitey make him intriguing," Lehr added.

DUMB & DUMBER

TWO 'STUPID WOMEN' have landed behind bars after they stole from a store because it was on their bucket list. 

Dumb duo Andrea Mobley, 36, and pal Jennifer Morrow, 38, decided that stealing from a retail store was definitely something they wanted to do before they died.
