best_know_for: Detective John Mulligan was a 20+ veteran of the Boston Police Department who people, both inside and outside law enforcement, have called "the crookedest cop in Boston". Allegedly Mulligan was gaming the overtime system, stole drugs and money from drug dealers and plied those drugs to coerce prostitutes for sexual favors when he was shot five times in the head execution style. Sean Ellis in 1995 was convicted in the murder during an armed robbery, but that decision was overturned in 2015 amid revelations of police misconduct and corruption. To date nobody has been properly charged with Mulligan's murder.

best_know_for: Gennaro J. “Jay” Angiulo was an American mobster who rose to the position of underboss in the Patriarca crime family of New England under Raymond L. S. Patriarca. He and his brothers oversaw the Boston, Massachusetts faction of the Patriarca family from 1963 to 1986. Angiulo rose from humble beginnings to become a key player in the Mafia, overseeing racketeering, gambling, loansharking, murder and other illicit operations in the region. His influence peaked in the 1960s and '70s, but his criminal empire began to crumble in the 1980s when the FBI, aided by informants like Whitey Bulger, planted listening devices in his headquarters. These recordings led to his 1986 conviction on racketeering and other charges, resulting in a lengthy prison sentence. After serving 17 years, Angiulo was released in 2007 due to health issues. He died on August 29, 2009, at the age of 90, and is considered the last significant Mafia boss in Boston’s history.
