BOSTON – If you plan to vote in the March 1 presidential primary in Massachusetts, the deadline to register, Feb. 10, is coming up fast.
Voters who previously registered but didn't respond to the annual street list mailing from their city or town clerk may find themselves on the inactive voter list on election day. In that case, voters must show identification or other document to confirm they still live at the registered address or to update their current address.
BOSTON (AP) — The woman who spent 16 years on the run with Boston mobster James "Whitey" Bulger pleaded guilty Wednesday to a criminal contempt charge for refusing to testify before a grand jury investigating whether other people helped him as a fugitive.
Catherine Greig, 64, entered her plea in U.S. District Court in Boston without having any agreement or sentencing recommendation from prosecutors. Greig is already serving an eight-year prison term for helping Bulger while he was on the lam.
