"Over 30 years since his reign as the leader of the White Hill Gang\u2014which tormented south Boston throughout most of the 70s and 80s\u2014James &amp;quot;Whitey&amp;quot; Bulger was convicted yesterday of 31 out of 32 counts, including racketeering, money laundering and extortion. The jury also found Bulger, 83, responsible for the killings of John McIntyre, Arthur Bucky Barrett, Deborah Hussey, Roger Wheeler, Michael Donahue and six other people. Although the one-time mob boss was accused of eight more murders, the jury couldn&amp;#039;t prove involvement. Donahue&amp;#039;s widow, Patricia, let out a cry at the verdict&amp;#039;s reading and told reporters, &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s been a long time coming.&amp;quot; Her husband, Michael, died in 1982. The ruling came after seven weeks of testimony, 63 witnesses and over 30 hours of deliberation. Although Bulger showed no reaction at the guilty verdict, his lawyer said Bulger was &amp;quot;very pleased&amp;quot; with the trial and outcome. Working with rogue FBI agents during his time as mob boss, he was satisfied that &amp;quot;the government corruption was exposed,&amp;quot; his lawyer told reporters. On the run for 16 years, most experts are saying the former gangster will spend the rest of his life behind bars. His sentencing is set for mid-November. Are you shocked by the trial&amp;#039;s verdict? Share your comments below. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
