Whitey Was Not at the Movies

Reports have been circulating for over a week now that James "Whitey" Bulger was spotted at a screening of The Departed playing in San Diego. An FBI agent may or may not have seen him, and the man in question may or may not have slipped onto a bus to Mexico shortly after the conclusion of the film. Investigators on the Bulger Fugitive Task Force told the Boston Globe that they can't substantiate the sighting of the FBI's #2 fugitive (just behind Bin Laden). Bostonist is more inclined agree with Richard Bankus' letter to the Herald – a movie industry stunt to boost box office revenues for The Departed. There are now two places you're guaranteed to find Whitey: the FBI's most wanted list and YouTube. Check out the latest Whitey addition below.

you are wrong...it was whitey! That's why it took 6 weeks for the sighting to go public.....the FBI had to get him out of San Diego first before leaking the story to the media
