Whitey Bulger, 89-year old mobster and multiple murderer, was killed yesterday in prison. Is this frontier justice or is it evil?

Bulger made his name in the Boston area as a mobster; he had 19 killings attributed to him.
Apparently he was assigned to a new prison earlier this week and within 24 hours of arrival, was killed by some fellow inmates. (Hit by another mob?)
On the one hand, he was in prison, but was going to get out eventually. His sentence wasn’t capital punishment.
On the other hand, he was a killer himself; why should be fare better than his victims?
Was Bulger’s murder some level of grass-roots justice being done? Or was it a truly bad thing?
