A group of FBI investigators is searching a wooded area in the vicinity of Milford and Wixom in connection with the 1975 disappearance of Teamsters’ leader Jimmy Hoffa.
Investigators have cordoned off a section of woods where the bones of the long-missing union official may lie.
Hoffa was last seen at the Mocas Red Fox restaurant in Bloomfield Township in July 1975.
Speculation regarding his whereabouts – or his body’s whereabouts – certainly comes and goes.
Recently, a mob hitman named Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski wrote a book claiming that Hoffa’s body was compacted in a car that became scrap metal in New Jersey.
Kuklinski died in prison earlier this year. His book, The Ice Man: Confessions of a Mafia Contract Killer, is set to be published in July.
In 2004, investigators searched a Detroit home when another mobster claimed Hoffa was killed there. Investigators ruled blood found in the house was not Hoffa’s.
I'll have to find the story and post it.
Late, but ironic. :-)
That's Hilarious!! Never saw that before
If they don't find hoffa maybe they'el find:
Ted Keneddys long lost mind.
Hillary's long lost integrity
Harry Reids long lost intelligence
Chuck Schumers long lost honesty
Bill Frists long lost Spine
and a few other things.
Recently, I sat next to a liberal on an airplane who had been a hippie 40 years ago. I could still smell him too.
I usually post it when Shep's name comes up! It's a classic.
Wow, a blast from the past. Speaking of old crimes, there have probably been more DB Cooper sightings in the past 30 years than Claudine Longet sightings.
It'd be a boon for the publishing industry, a whole bunch of books would get reprinted with a new last chapter.
I don't know. The food at the Red Fox wasn't that bad.
Can't come up with a better reason than that? Lol! Let the poor guy decay in peace!
Silly them! Don't they know that "Bruce Almighty" already found him. LOL
When I was in school in VT, some 30 years ago, the April 1 edition of the school paper had a story about Hoffa's body
being found in a school construction project.
And I remember hearing on Art Bell a while back, that Jimmy Hoffa's ghost was wandering a railroad crossing in PA
someplace, because his body was buried near there.
The LSM just doesn't get it. Geraldo killed off gangster "speculation" years ago.
That makes more sense than other location theories. Why take the risk of transporting the body out of state, to the Meadowlands, for example.
No, it's out beyond the suburbs in far Oakland county. In the 70's it was the middle of nowhere.
Pinz
They are looking for an oversized pinkie ring.
I would never rip Claudine. She is my favorite involuntary manslaughterer of all time, and I can still get into the beat when she belts out "Hello Hello."
That should have been the Machus Red Fox restaurant. On the north side of the Detroit area, near Selfridge AFB.
The place closed in 1996, but a new Italian restaurant, Andiamo, is now in business at the old location. The original owner, Harris Machus, passed away four or five years back.
He's the suspect with the mustache in the Duke Lacrosse Team rape case.
