I guess Jimmy Hoffa is really the Judge Crater of our time. . .although Hoffa clearly had far more enemies. FBI teams yesterday sifted dirt from a chest-deep hole in the ground in an intense search for the body of labor leader Jimmy Hoffa three decades after his disappearance.
FBI agents directed a work crew that used heavy equipment to rip up the concrete floor of a horse farm barn demolished a day earlier. After the rough stuff, they started working like archaeologists... sorting through the soil under the foundation of the barn by hand, photographing and videotaping evidence (they hope) inside the yellow crime scene tape. The investigation was triggered by a tip from a federal marijuana prisoner who lived on the farm at the time of Hoffa's disappearance.
The property was previously owned by Hoffa associate/Teamster official/Mafia associate Rolland McMaster. The farm is about 20 miles from where the Teamster boss disappeared without a trace in 1975.
