    Prison justice; people seem to find fitting, in a way. But, that is a very slippery slope. Some pretty bad things happen that, people would not be ok with. I suspect there was more to this, given that the inmates already knew Bulger was on the way and had such easy access.

    He was intentionally held where he could be silenced because the authorities could not allow him to publicly speak of how deeply he had corrupted the FBI and police for decades, and any murders he may have carried out for them.
    He died far easier than he had given his victims, he merits absolutely no sympathy.
