Detroit Man Says He Can Reveal Where Jimmy Hoffa Is Buried

[Bigg Red]

Does Geraldo know about this?

[bgill]

says Hoffa is buried in a shallow grave about 20 miles north of the restaurant where he was last seen, in a field in northern Oakland County, Michigan.

If true, about an hour after this guy opened his mouth, Hoffa was dug up and buried a long way from there.

[lacrew]

If its this Tony Zirelli, seems like he might be fibbing about his mob ties.

I grew up on Kensington Rd. in Milford, just south of the GM proving grounds.

We always heard he was put in the ground around there, I always kind of hoped he was.

[woodbutcher1963]

Reminds me of that scene in “Goodfellows” where they have to go upstate to take care of that “thing”.

The “thing” was the made man that they killed in the bar and then buried upstate. They had to go move him after he had been in the ground for six months because they were going to build on that property and the heat was on.

I love that movie.

There were still plenty of the purple gang members in Grand Rapids in the 60’s. BTW, Hoffa is in a landfill in Illinois.

So his body isn’t encased in a concrete pillar holding up some New York Sports Stadium? Oh well. My theory is the mob put out 50 stories to see who talked - then killed the talkers. It’s a charming bunch...

[Ditter]

Exactly my feelings! Who cares!

[Hardastarboard]

it should never have happened to Jim Hoffa. He didn’t deserve what happened to him.

Um, well, uh . . .

[Secret Agent Man]

one group of thugs erased the leader of another group of thugs. why sweat this for so long? you live and act like a thug, you probably will die like a thug.

[Hot Tabasco]

Without remains verified by DNA this is just another geraldo Al Capone’s vaults.

I think Tony has more credibility than Geraldo..........

[Rappini]

Omerta.

[Hot Tabasco]

If true, then how could he have any firsthand knowledge that would serve to resolve the questions surrounding Hoffa's whereabouts? Is he trying to peddle some second-hand hearsay to a gullible audience

Quite likely but who cares? Zerilli was in prison when Hoffa disappeared and any info he may have received as to how he died or where he was buried was second hand.

With that being said, 38 years ago, that field that Hoffa was allegedly buried in that is 20 miles north of the then Machus Red Fox on Telegraph is likely either a half million dollar per house subdivision or a shopping mall.......

Thailand?

[dearolddad]

Someone should call this mealy mouth SOB to make good on his BS claim.

[SunkenCiv]

Hoffa was a.k.a. D.B. Cooper...

Thanks Zakeet.

Some of Hoffa’s last known words were, “I’m going to meet Tony Pro.”

[snip] Under his leadership, the Teamsters ended a federal program that allowed Mexican truckers to haul goods beyond the border zone in the United States. The Teamsters strongly opposed a trade deal with Colombia through lobbying and street protests, and were credited with helping to prevent a similar trade deal with Panama. The Teamsters successfully encouraged Congress to pass legislation increasing rail security in 2007... Under his leadership, the Teamsters ended a federal program in 2009 that allowed Mexican truckers to haul goods beyond the border zone in the United States. Hoffa predicted the failure of a second version of the program in October 2011, and challenged it in federal court. [/snip]

[SunkenCiv]

I think we all know that answer.
