Sean Scott Hicks, a former Winter Hill Gang enforcer, spent 20+ years in prison for his role in organized crime. Once working under Whitey Bulger, Hicks was deeply involved in Boston’s criminal underworld. While behind bars, he turned his life around, becoming a writer, actor, and criminal consultant. Now the author of "The Devil to Pay: A Mobster’s Road to Perdition," Hicks shares his life inside the mob, his time in prison, and how he left gangster life behind.
