The Truth Be Damned

Janet Uhlar was a juror in the trial of James “Whitey” Bulger – an experience that forever changed her. It wasn’t Bulger’s criminality, that was anticipated. It was the corruption revealed within the DOJ and FBI, detailed in numerous testimonies. It was the freedom given by the prosecution to key witnesses, whose combined body count equaled 50 -- and the souls and survivors of the 50, to which the Court showed no respect. It was the violation of Constitutional Rights and threat of contrived charges. It was the media, which failed to report accurately, choosing instead to further the story line from which many Boston “journalists” earned substantial gain. It was the realization that prosecutors can manipulate testimony through threats, agreements, and money – leaving no citizen safe. Janet offers a presentation of what she learned during and after the trial through personal conversations with Bulger, and others related to the trial. She has written her story as a roman a clef, titled, yet breaks the rules of fiction with appendices containing excerpts of actual letters from Whitey Bulger. No one has heard Bulger's story -- until now!Janet UhlarThe Truth Be Damned
