Joseph Nardone was convicted in the 1990s for his role in a ruthless and elaborate street-level narcotics ring in Charlestown. The Boston gang instilled a code of silence among its members and those who came into contact with it, with Nardone serving as the operation s chief assassin and headache man. He s now seeking compassionate release from prison due to a slew of medical conditions that put him at high risk of coronavirus. Pictured here is a letter he wrote to a federal judge in 2020, detailing the risks posed to him in prison. (Joseph Nardone/U.S. District Court)
