Ed Bradley and Mike Wallace were the nucleus of sixty minutes. I found this interview riveting as I worked in Southie for 16 years across from Broadway Station. Circa 1969-1985.
@@ssherrierable you don't have to know a great man just to wish him well in the afterlife. These kinds of condolences aren't on reserve for you and your people. You sound stupid AF 😂
Ed Bradley’s HS classmate was Whiteys hit man, he was convicted of 24 murders. John Martorano and Ed went to a private HS together and we’re teammates on the football team. I’m surprised Ed didn’t mention it.
Weeks was a tough guy and loyal enforcer for the Winter Hill gang, but he wasn't a hitman and police have never obtained any real evidence or had serious suspicions that he's killed anybody. My guess is that the story about being across the street from Carr's house with a sniper rifle is partially-true, but also very embellished. He likely went to Howie's house with a gun yes but probably lost his nerve. I've read his book, BRUTAL with Phyllis Karas (would recommend it) and some of the stuff Whitey had him doing was really menial and boring. Whitey had a soft spot for him but he was never his "right hand man". That was Steve Flemmi. Instead Kevin was more a lackey, or little brother. And when the way they almost came to blows in the courtroom adds credence to this, there was always tension hidden beneath the surface with them.
In the end these criminals are always out for themselves. Whitney never had allegiants to anyone. An informant since 75'. Gave him reign over the city.
Lmao when weeks started laughing when he was told Howie didnt believe he had the stones to whack him and was lying , weeks was laughing and probably telling himself "oh boy your so lucky I had a heart to not do it in front of your daughter"
Weeks is not, nor never was a killer. Every single guy still alive who was in the streets at that time will tell you the same. Howie knows that because he talked to a whole lot of street guys after everything went down.
@@johnpatrick3458 That doesn't mean he wasn't capable of killing guys. John Gotti wasn't known to have murdered anyone but everyone who knew him said he was fully capable of it without a second thought. Especially under Whitey, insisting Weeks couldn't or wouldn't kill comes across as a dumb way to underestimate someone known to hurt people for a living.
Kevin Weeks valued nothing more than his hardearned meticulous tight jericurl perm hairstyle. He used to wear a motorcycle helmet for awhile after each perm setting, to protect each precious curl during Bulgers torture dungeon roughhouse sessions. True excellence in the art of wet greasy hair aesthetics!
He didn't. He wasn't gonna start picking up a bodycount beginning with the Howard Stern of Boston AM Radio and city's most wellknown news columnist. That's a level of self sabotage even the Boston Irish mob of yore knew to avoid. Weeks was just having abit of fun engaging in Howie's pro wrestling like theatrics in order to help Carr sell books, a favor I'm sure Carr probably reciprocated somehow during Weeks own authorship and publishing endeavors
Seems to me that the FBI been watching this guy but never wanted to stop him. Notice all the off guard pictures that's not just apart of a picture but the center
Weeks? I don't know if he's still around Southie today in 2022, but if he isn't, its nothing to do with any of the Bulger gang past, as he has been around Southie publicly a lot after he first served his time
howie carr made a living for years pontificating, and bloviating about bulger, and his associates. bulger was the best thing that ever happened to carr.
Lol good point. I can't stand Howie Carr. I live in Massachusetts, about a 30 minute drive south of Boston and I've heard his radio show many times while driving and I've just never really cared for him. Nothing to do with his political views or beliefs, it's just his personality and the way he comes off.
5:13 - why would Weeks lie?? And the fact that he knows there was a graveyard across the road from your house means he was at least scoping you out so why would you dispute it??? Man...if I were him I'd be counting my lucky stars!
He wont recognize the name ..and like Kevin himself says ..he doesnt need anybody to tell him anything ...but i know Kevin ...hes a TOUGH TOUGH GUY.Thats a fact .They put Dana White to flight thats for sure.🇮🇹

What was it like in those years?
In a weird way, this MF partially helped create the UFC.
That's humorous when you realize it's true

That’s right, he was meant to do one with Martorano but he sadly died before Martorano was inexplicably released after just 12 years in a deal.

Looks like red from pineapple express
@@Grandpaneedsblood yes 😅😅😅😅😅
Ya know.. Quasimodo predicted all of this
I still think it's funny that an informant was so suspicious of other people informing
For real, it's incredibly ironic.

😂
Haha I love that
Law enforcement…thugs with badges.
“Weeks isn’t capable of that”??? Whoa. Howie, oh howie. Points get across without, you know…Weeks, I get. Howie, dude, got lucky.
And the problem is you can’t confront your boss if you suspect him of being an fbi informant because bulger would kill you (weeks) I’m assuming.
Howie, he had the stones.
Typical scumbag journalist....acts tough when there's no possibility of consequences.
Dont believe weeks had him in his sights? Idk man. Believe what you want I guess

Truth
In the most disingenuous, underhanded way too. Just finished his book the Brothers Bulger.
So a FBI rat kills a police snitch……
The Government created bulger
5:45 Amen
Why are people taking the murderers side?😂
Cuz he’s a cool guy with a nice Boston accent and hair-do
It’s bizarre I don’t understand people
The fact any of this was allowed sucks

Howie Carr should stop acting tough and show Weeks the respect he deserves. Weeks isn’t the type of man you want to underestimate.
Respect? You obviously didn’t lose anyone to overdose in South Boston. This POS should be rotting in a cell somewhere.
"ANTHING HE ASKED ME TO DO "
That includes prostate tickles.

So this dude help start the UFC 🤔
Yes lol

Two Weeks. He earned that nickname because that's how long it took him to flip. Just another coward.

He had two nicknames. Two Weeks and Kevin Squeaks.
Everyone rats dude.
Bulger was getting old and got complasaint. Had he still been on his toes like he was, he probably wouldn't ever have been caught.
Aye if he had fled to Cuba or Venezuela he'd still be out there now
He literally only got caught because his girlfriend got breast implants and someone recognised her from that when they saw the poster
BLACK MASS !!
