James "Whitey" Bulger's girlfriend, Catherine Greig was in court Wednesday. She's accused of harboring the alleged mobster during their 16 years on the lam together.

Greig's attorney says she was an innocent bystander and should be let go, but the hearing ended without Judge Magistrate Jennifer Boal deciding whether or not to release Greig on bail.
