Investigation Continues In Bulger Murder

Former Boston mob boss James "Whitey"  Bulger's death is officially being investigated as a homicide.  

The  U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI are looking into the matter,  according to a statement from federal prosecutors in West Virginia on  Wednesday.  

Bulger was found unresponsive in a federal prison in that  state on Tuesday morning, just hours after he had transferred.  

The  Boston Globe reports Western Massachusetts mob figure Fotios "Freddy"  Geas is the prime suspect in the murder.  

Geas was serving a life  sentence for murdering Springfield mob boss Adolfo "Big Al" Bruno and associate Gary Westerman in 2003.
