    On June 22, 2011, Bulger was arrested outside an apartment in
    Santa Monica, California
    . Arrested with him was his long-time girlfriend
    Catherine Greig
    . Bulger was 81 years old at the time of his arrest. Soon after, Bulger and Greig were extradited to
    Massachusetts
    and taken under heavy guard to the
    waterfront federal courthouse
    . This necessitated the closing of part of
    Boston Harbor
    . Greig pleaded guilty to conspiracy to harboring a fugitive, identity fraud, and conspiracy to commit identity fraud and was sentenced in June 2012 to eight years in prison. Bulger did not seek bail and remained in custody at the
    Plymouth County
    House of Correction in
    Plymouth, Massachusetts
    . On November 5, 2012, Bulger was taken to a hospital from his Plymouth prison cell after complaining about chest pains.
    On June 12, 2013, Bulger went on trial for 32 counts of
    racketeering
    ,
    money laundering
    ,
    extortion
    , and weapons charges, including complicity in 19 murders. On August 12, 2013, he was found guilty on 31 counts, including both racketeering charges, and was found to have been involved in 11 murders. On November 14, 2013, Bulger was sentenced to two consecutive life terms plus five years for his crimes by U.S. District Judge
    Denise Casper
    . Bulger is now inmate number 02182-748 currently incarcerated for life at the
    United States Penitentiary Coleman II
    in
    Sumterville, Florida
    .
    Bulger was also possibly involved in the murder of an unidentified woman—the "
    Lady of the Dunes
    "—in
    Provincetown, Massachusetts
    , in 1974. After one of many
    facial reconstructions
    was released, it was reported that he had been seen in the city with a woman who matched her description.
    Bulger's assets were auctioned off on June 25, 2016, raising 9,000 for his victims. Among the items on auction were a rat-shaped pencil holder that went for ,600, a 1992 excise tax bill from the City of Boston (0), and his lock-picking kit (5, as part of a lot including 95 mini flashlights, a pocket knife and a leatherman tool).
