21. I now understand the Whitey Bulger reference
Indira goes into it in the 2nd part of the interview

IS: "Now, the Boston FBI office, you can check this out, was rated as one of the worst in terms of corruption, and I believe the Whitey Bulger incident, the connections between the FBI and the Mafia have been, how should I put it?, extremely well explored and the Boston FBI office, the ex-governor of Massachusetts, I believe, anyway, this mob character, Whitey Bulge's brother was in a very high level political position in Massachusetts, in Boston, and in fact if people were to read Peter Lance’s book, “Coverup”, he explores it very well and backs up a lot of what I had found here, the interaction between organized crime and the FBI."

Which fits the essence of Indira's story, namely widespread connections between money, drugs, crime/terrorism and various government agencies.
