I wonder if property insurance covers damage from investigators?

I don't know... A lot might depend on whether the policy holder was a suspect, or just incidently damaged, like this guy is. I don't think the current owner owned it at the time or is thought to have anything to do with the murder.

Forensic experts and cadaver dogs were brought to the scene, according to local affiliate WDIV TV.

'Cadaver dogs' are what, dogs that are specially trained to...dig up bones? I thought that they'd already do that without any special prompting. :-)

It looked like a long horse barn, maybe 10 stalls down each side with a aisle down the middle... Average stall size being 12 feet square, it's a lot bigger than 200 square feet. 4320 SF would be closer. They're just wrong on that.

Geraldo is busy doing a special on the "Sewers of Paris" and how the "Norway Rat" population of the sewers are directly attributable to President George Bush's abandonment of stem cell research of the rat's spinal column two days after conception.

Geraldo is a busy man. Let's not overload him with details.

Would the floor originally have been dirt? Then say a partial pad added later?

Makes sense to bury him inside. Not somewhere for all the world to see.

Have we heard from the owners of this horse farm on this ridiculousness?

They have commented, as has the previous owners (who I suspect is the one who gave the tip).

They seem okay with it.....almost happy.

I know I wouldn't be happy if ya destroyed my barn, but they seem giddy, my guess is, they probably figured out a way to make money from this.

Who the hell cares where he's buried?

His children, one of whom is now the head of the teamsters.

Your explanation is hilarious. Either that, or he was fried up with green peppers and garlic in olive oil and served on french bread.

In reality, the FBI has issued their official opinion through Bill Roemer. He was an FBI agent in Chicago from the sixties to the nineties. Hoffa suffered the same fate as Helen Vorhees Brach, he was kidnapped and thrown into a zinc smelting furnace.

Roemer is a good storyteller but has only a semi-literate grasp of English, sorta like Bowie Kuhn. His stuff on Joe Batters, who undoubtedly issued the order for Hoffa's death, is riveting.

They most likely meant 20,000 sq ft which would be a building 200ft by 100ft, Ihat makes sense!

It was either dirt floor, or by the time the overhead shot I saw was filmed they had already removed any pad. I don't think there was a pad, I could still see the dirt outline where stalls had been.

I wonder if this is yet another instance of someone on
the inside sending authorities on a wild goose chase.

there should be tomb built to commemorate the missing mobster.

That's funny! Along with the eternal flame, they could build a giant marble statue of some solemn, anonymous wiseguy with his feet in a bucket of cement or a couple other wiseguys feeding one of their own into a woodchipper.
