You have probably heard of Al Capone, Sam Giancana, Carlos Marcello or even Whitey Bulger but few, if any, have heard of Joseph Bulger. Some say he was one of the real leaders of the Chicago Outfit. As a teenager he worked on the docks in New Orleans and after his father died he moved the family to Chicago and changed his last name. He became a lawyer, mayor and so many other things.
In 1966 he was flying his plane from Chicago to Miami, where his second family was living, when his plane mysteriously crashed. His Chicago family knew nothing of the Miami family until after the crash and his dual life began to be revealed.
Some believe he was not on the plane that crashed and he left the country and lived out the remainder of his life somewhere in South America.
On this episode I sit down with Mark Jones, grandson of Joseph Bulger, and the author of the book - Hoodlum Lawyer.
