Profession
Bourg began his criminal career at the age of 14. He started with petty crimes such as petty theft and street fighting. His early rap tables gave rise to the nickname “Whitey”. Because of his platinum hair, this name has always haunted him. As Bourg grew older, he began to commit more heinous crimes, such as theft, assault, and armed robbery. On one occasion, he was sentenced to 5 years in prison. He joined the U.S. Air Force shortly after his release in 1948. Whitty left his post without permission in 1950 and was honorably discharged from the army in 1952. He returned to Boston. In 1956, Burg was arrested and sentenced to 25 years in prison. He was released in 9 years (staying in Alcatraz Island for 3 years). Bourg became a member of the notorious Dongshan Gang in 1972. His ranks continued to climb and quickly became a key figure on the frontline of organized crime in Boston. He succeeded Howie Winter (Howie Winter) as the leader of the Winter Mountain Gang, a title he held for more than 15 years.
Although he has his own organized crime network, Bourg is an FBI informant. From the mid-1970s to the 1990s, he provided law enforcement officials with information about the Patriarca criminal family. In 1994, Burger fled Boston after learning of a pending prosecution. In 1999, he was included in the FBI’s most wanted criminals list, second only to Osama bin Laden. After more than 10 years of fleeing, Bourg was arrested in California on June 22, 2011. He was extradited to Massachusetts, and his trial lasted two months. He was charged with 11 counts of murder, federal extortion, conspiracy, and extortion.
