Alleged Boston gangster James "Whitey" Bulger is being housed at Plymouth County Correctional Facility while awaiting his arraignment on 19 murders.
Bulger, 81, went before a federal judge Friday in Boston on a bail hearing after being caught in Santa Monica, California by federal investigators living with his long-time girlfriend Catherine Greig, 60, on a tip from an Icelandic woman who lives part-time in Santa Monica, according to WCVB TV.
Plymouth County, as the only prison in the state to house federal inmates, will be Bulger's home until, at least, his arraignment, and likely longer. The sheriff's department has not confirmed Bulger's arrival.
State Police cruisers and U.S. Marshalls delivered Bulger to Plymouth, which is located on Long Pond Road adjacent Shops at 5 and the Plymouth Police Department.

The man who has been on the run for the past 16 years, James “Whitey” Bulger, was arrested in his Santa Monica home. On June 22 the FBI was able to cross off #458 from their Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list, after Bulger was placed in handcuffs at his California apartment. http://bit.ly/ix2F8y
