And to be honest guys like cahill, richard gillis and richard devlin were more convicts than gangsters those dudes spent most of there young lifes in walpole state prison.


I saw the post, but I wasn't aware Anthony had done a state bid back in the day. I thought he did like a year in Billerica house for a gun charge. The story u describe sure sounds like a typical Anthony story though. About Cahill and Devlin/Gillis, your probably right, there's a lot of guys like that from and around Boston especially Charlestown,Malden,Eastie,Somerville,Medford. But they are useful and lotta the time trustworthy because they aren't worried about going back to the joint and seeing the fellas be it state or federal, the federal system is packed with boston guys
