Sources told Orr that it appears that Bulger and Grieg had been living there for "some time" though the stockpile of cash in the apartment indicated that they were ready to move when necessary.
Sources told Orr that when Bulger was arrested outside the apartment, he did not resist but was "verbally combatitive."

"He eventually settled down and has been speaking with authorities. It's not clear that he has offered anything of substance," Orr said.
He added that it seems that Bulger and Greig were living on their own with no obvious network of supporters, but that part of the investigation is continuing.
