Jimmy Hoffa Case

[Aunt Marg]

Here's a classic that never goes to sleep for me.

Where? Where did Jimmy H, end up? So many stories...

Probably one that will never be solved.

We saw a movie some time ago the suggested he was shot then cremated.

I lived 30 miles west of Detroit in Ypsilanti.

500 years from now archeologists will find him, most likely encased in a foundation of some freeway overpass.

I've hear so many reports of what happened to him, everything from being encased in concrete, to being incorporated into the concrete foundation of some high-rise building, to being put through a wood-chipper, and the list goes on.

I was working at the Detroit News when Hoffa disappeared. People were calling in with the most bizarre ideas where he was. We had to treat everyone politely and promise to pass the info on to a reporter. My opinion is that he is one of the "pillars of the community".....in that a "continuous pour" was going on down at the Renaissance Center in downtown Detroit and the cement men were Teamsters, so he just might be holding up one of the parking garages these days. As good a theory as the others.

We had just eaten at Machus Red Fox (the last place he was seen) a couple of weeks before and I later wondered if I had ever seen Jimmy Hoffa any of the times we had gone there.

Interestingly enough, twelve years ago, I dated a nephew of one of the many suspects in Hoffa's death. I won't mention names as his was not the same. He had never met his infamous uncle.

The most bizarre story I heard was that when authorities removed all that makeup from Tammy Faye Baker, they found Jimmy Hoffa.

What a wacky world we live in.

I tend to believe the story that Jimmy Hoffa was killed and dismembered in Detroit. According to the legend/story, Hoffa's remains were then placed in a 55-gallon drum, loaded onto a Gateway Transportation truck, and were driven to New Jersey where they were buried in a landfill that is now a public wildlife refuge.

Over the years I have heard many times that
he's at the bottom of a concrete pillar.

Surely the police today could X-Ray all the
concrete columns from that era.

Here they can X-Ray shipping containers
and they are made of steel.

He supposedly wound up under one of the NY Giants goal posts in the Meadowlands in Rutherford, NJ. That was debunked when the new Stadium for the Giants and Jets was built.

The mob knows two things vey well, how to kill an how to dispose of the remains.

 

[Aneeda72]

Could he be in the Oreo bunker that Nabisco built? . Hmm, I have my time periods mixed up. Anyway, I remember this case, I think. Union guy vs mob guy? Mob mostly wins, IMO.

This was recently solved. Former NJ Governor Chris Christie had a colonoscopy.

They got in there, took a look around.

Yup, Jimmy Hoffa was in there.

 

[JonSR77]

I always heard it was the Meadowlands.
