theres two factions, they split in mid 90s after flemmi, whitey were confirmed as rats... not to mention the dozens of other lcn WHG guys who ratted after finding out whitey was a rat... YOU DONT HAVE TO RAT ON SOMEONE JUST CAUSE THEY RATTED ON YOU... DELUCA, MARTARANO, SALEMME just to name a few.

Theres the somerville WHG faction... that operated in the greater boston area(ALL OVER MIDDLESEX, ESSEX, AND NORFOLK COUNTIES)... there is no one man in charge... but guys like niel mazza, joey yerardi( original member) joey mongiello(medford) are respected. then theres drug dealers that are alligned with them like donny johnson etc.. it weld's nowhere near as much power and respect as in the days of howie winter buddy mclean, whitey bulger etc...


THen theres the southie faction( D street boys)- siad to headed by georgie boy and billy hogan( some also say tom cahill and andre the giant play a role) But they almost exclusively operate in 5 five nieghborhoods and citys- SOUTHIE, QUINCY, EVERETT, DORCHESTER AND CAMBRIDGE.. PAUL WALKER AND TOMMY RYAN OF CAMBRIDGE ARE ALLIGNED WITH THESE GUYS.
