James M. Murphy
James M. Murphy (March 2, 1942) was an Irish-American Winter Hill Gang mob associate who in 1970 became the subject of a massive manhunt by the then-Boston Police Department Commissioner Francis Roache. He was a fugitive wanted in the shooting of two people murdered at a Christmas Eve party on December 24, 1968. When he was placed on the wanted fugitive list he was third behind Frank Salemme and Stephen Flemmi who were fugitives hiding from racketeering charges. Murphy would successfully evade capture for eight years before surrendering himself to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in 1975. Murphy was later acquitted of the crimes he was charged with by a Suffolk County, Massachusetts Superior Court jury.
