Freddy Geas, eyed in ‘Whitey’ Bulger’s killing, ‘hated rats’
By Kevin Cullen GLOBE STAFF OCTOBER 31, 2018
When private investigator Ted McDonough heard that Freddy Geas was suspected by authorities of taking part in the murder of James “Whitey” Bulger, he knew immediately why Geas might have done it.
“Freddy hated rats,” said McDonough, using the slang for criminal informants. McDonough had become friendly with Geas while working for him as an investigator.
“Freddy hated guys who abused women. Whitey was a rat who killed women. It’s probably that simple,” McDonough said.
Fotios “Freddy” Geas — Mafia hitman, career criminal, prison lifer — did not like informants, and was almost certainly well aware of the fact that Bulger had led a charmed life for a long time as an informant for the FBI.
