I was a little confused by the State Trooper's role (Matt Damon). Seemed as if he was actually portraying FBI agent John Connelly rather than a Statie. From what I've heard and read it was the Mass State Police who were working hard to take down Whitey but were hampered by the Feds. I know at least one Statie was indicted in the whole deal but he seemed to be more of a background figure. No mention of a politician brother either. The movie was really good but if you expected to see the Whitey Bulger story this wasn't it.
