BOSTON
The U.S. Marshals Service will auction items belonging to James “Whitey” Bulger and Catherine Greig on June 24-26th at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, officials announced.
“We are pleased that we will soon be auctioning a significant portion of Bulger’s and Greig’s personal possessions, which will mark another milestone in the course of their successful prosecutions,” said U.S. Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz. “Although the proceeds we obtain will never be enough to make up for the harm the victims and their families have suffered, it is our hope that this process and the restitution we will be able to distribute as a result of the auction will give some relief to the victims and families in this case.”
The U.S. Marshals entered into an agreement with the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center to host the auction, which will include items seized from the couple’s Santa Monica apartment, and other possessions in the government’s custody.
The auction catalog and photos of around 1,000 items are now available for viewing, and people may register to bid through the Gaston and Sheehan Auctions website: TaxAuction
