2:00 PM

What happened during the only law enforcement interview Whitey Bulger ever granted? Join retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent Rich Teahan, who commanded the FBI's Whitey Bulger Task Force, and Boston 25 News investigative reporter Bob Ward for a fascinating look inside one of the FBI's most famous fugitive investigations.

 

After sixteen years on the run, Boston crime boss James "Whitey" Bulger was captured in Santa Monica, California, bringing one of America's most notorious manhunts to an end. But for Teahan, who led the task force responsible for finding Bulger, the story was far from over.

 

During an extraordinary six-hour flight aboard a Justice Department jet, Teahan conducted the only interview Bulger ever gave to law enforcement. Together with Bob Ward—Boston 25 News investigative reporter and one of New England's most respected crime journalists—they'll share the remarkable story behind Face to Face with Whitey Bulger. Hear behind-the-scenes insights into the investigation, Bulger's capture, the unforgettable debrief aboard the Justice Department jet, and the collaboration that brought this extraordinary story to life.

 

Following the presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, meet the authors, and have books signed. Books will be available for purchase and signing.

 

 

Whether you're fascinated by true crime, FBI investigations, investigative journalism, or modern Boston history, this is a rare opportunity to hear firsthand from the FBI agent who led the hunt for Whitey Bulger and the journalist who helped bring one of the story's most remarkable chapters to readers.
