— Boston mob boss James “Whitey” Bulger spent almost all of his 16 years on the lam in the same Santa Monica apartment complex, paying his rent in cash every month while he and his girlfriend hid from one of the biggest manhunts in U.S. history, the property managers said Thursday.
The managers, who asked their names not be used because they didn’t want additional attention from the media, told The Associated Press on Thursday that the couple — who went by the names Charles and Carol Gasko — moved in around 1996.
