It could be the best proof yet that Jimmy Hoffa is buried at a dump in North Jersey.
“Fox Nation’’ says in a new report that it used radar experts to locate what appears to be a slew of underground steel drums at the state-owned spot where a late mob associate’s son said his father helped stash the body of the famous Teamsters chief.
“He couldn’t fit in the drum body-first, feet-first — they had to turn him and put him in head-first,” Frank Cappola told the streaming service’s series “Riddle, The Search for James R. Hoffa” — referring to how his dad and Mafia associates struggled to get Hoffa’s corpse into one of the containers.
“Don’t take this the wrong way, because [Dad] had a lot of respect for Hoffa, but he said, ‘They couldn’t fit the fat little man in a barrel feet first,’” Cappola said, quoting his father, Paul Cappola Sr.
“So they put [Hoffa] in head-first, and then they pushed the cover on top of him. And then they buried him,’’ Frank said.
The son said his father dumped the container with Hoffa’s body into a 12-foot hole and added more than a dozen containers on top of it before covering them all with dirt.
The show said it hired a company specializing in ground-penetration technology and found numerous objects at the spot resembling barrels piled on top of each other.
“Fox Nation” said it is now waiting to see whether law enforcement follows up on the lead.

Could he maybe been taken alive to Jersey to meet with someone, and was offed there?
Me too … attended several NY/NJ Giants games back in the Phil Simms era … often wondered if the rumor was true.
No he was killed in Michigan. The part in the movie The Irishman where the body was cut up and cremated makes a little more sense.
That does make the most sense, especially back in the day. I was about 12 so a lot didn’t register. Everything I know I learned from the history books. LOL
“Would they have really transported that body all the way to Jersey to get rid of it?”
Probably made the trip with Hoffa’s body, covered by a canvas, strapped to the top of a early model Wagon Queen Family Truckster station wagon.
I heard it was the end zone at Giants Stadium!
Two things I have heard.
One from Franzese is that he is in a very deep and wet place.
The other is that they shot him at the house, they then had him taken to a crematorium and cremated.
Take your pick.
They’re Teamsters, experts at transport.
If he was shot in Michigan then he was turned into sausage...
He sleeps with the fishes.
Not quite the end zone but somewhere near by.

zI know exactly where Hoffa is buried. I had an office in a building about 30 miles from the restaurant where Hoffa had his last meal. It had a slab floor that was poured the summer Hoffa was murdered. Every year, or so, a spot about the size of Hoffa would start to appear on the carpet on my office floor. I would simply call maintenance and simply tell them “Jimmy is seeping through again”. They would immediately send someone over to clean up the spot.
Good story !
Worthy of a Sopranos episode.
He’s the weekend bartender at the bar in Arizona where Elvis sings & Andy Kaufamn does stand up comedy. JFK jr tends bar on weeknights.
He met a predictable and fitting end. NO sympathy from me! He got what he courted and deserved. He’s not the ONLY mob scumbag I’ve seen in my lifetime get their just due. What gets me is when they make movies glorifying these scum.
who cares what “fox nation” does?!!!!
The short answer is YES! If you’ve ever been in LE you’d know just exactly how much it complicates an investigation and subsequent prosecution. When a body is found at the scene of the “crime”, as it usually/normally is, the body and anything found on it or near it can be treated as “direct” evidence or “potentially” “direct evidence. But... when the body is discovered somewhere else than the crime scene, it becomes more complicated for a variety of reasons. You go from having to determine/prove that a crime was comitted where/when/how and by who. AND that the evidence found there is almost certainly allowed at trial. You end up with... Going from knowing the crime was committed, but NOT knowing “where”. Something you’re going to “usually” be required to explain. Then there is the evidence of the body, on the body, or “about” the body. Now, sure, maybe you find evidence, but now you face this uphill struggle linking the evidence to the initial crime scene.
It’s too bad that it wasn’t a circular “firing squad” They are all scum. These are truly “evil” people.
