No one could take him. In the same time span, the young truck driver/longshoreman from Somerville began building a criminal enterprise. Years later, it became known as the Winter Hill Gang. In 1961, Buddy faced confrontation with the ruthless and violent McLaughlin brothers of nearby Charlestown. When he wouldn’t concede to them, a feud started. More than sixty people died. From those who knew Buddy McLean best, this is his life story.
