Hoffa dès là minutes où il À était Assassiné c'est meurtriè L'on fait disparaitre dans de L'acide sulfurique pauvre Jimmy Hoffa 🙏🙏 qu'il repose en paix Amen 🙏 cordialement 🇨🇵🇨🇵👍☘️
He was cremated at Jimmy Quasuranos garbage disposal plant within 30 minutes of his death. He will never be found. Hes ashes. Jimmy was warned live on your pension and keep your mouth shut.
It's not just a mob story. Teamsters, mafia, Nixon is a reality that was passed down to me by a man that was in the cigar smoke filled rooms with the whole bunch. The FBI always get their man as they used to say. Almost impossible they didn't know who killed Hoffa. That same man got the reality based visit from the men in black and promptly resigned his powerful position or he could join his friend Jimmy.Those who care about the working man don't last long in the darkened halls of power. All these wacked out conspiracy theories and fantasy land movies are rather sad and pathetic.
" I would write the book but I would be dead before the first chapter." Those words were spoken to me by one of Mr. Hoffa's best friends 2 years after he was disappeared. Who killed Hoffa is irrelevant, they were just the peons carrying out orders from much higher powers that be. One would be a conspiracy theorist to say anymore. Ha Ha.
Yeah but that wasn’t the kind of man he was . This kind of ambitious guy just can’t retire and ride off in the sun set and because of that he paid the ultimate price. The details are murky but the end result is the same . Hoffa died the day he disappeared and imo there is nothing left of him to find
He put unions on the map and helped citizens move up to the middle class. He did it the way all accomplish men do it following the American model plan. What ever works to get what you need. Politicians , law enforcement the average citizens do it today. Glad Hoffa made it for the working man
don't forget he left the teamsters up sh*ts creek without a paddle when he raided the teamster's fund for his mob buddies to build las vegas with... he screwed the working man there. my dad got a dime on the pension dollar when he retired , after 36 years, of driving truck in chicago's loop.
I agree. I think any loss of human life is a shame but it's a complex world with sooooo many moving parts. There is no doubt that Jimmy Hoffa was a self made man (pun sort of intended) and he cared a lot and did a lot for the working man. It would benefit America a lot to have someone like that now, with dirt under their fingernails.
it seemed that way..yes. BUT the financially broke teamsters union was unable to pay ALL THOSE TEAMSTERS their duly earned pension. my dad got pennies on the dollar so hoffa acted to tear down a portion of the middle class. the teamsters were a huge union, encompassing a LOT OF PEOPLE and hoffa sold them out for more "power" - he bargained with money but his goal was more power.
from what i was told by people in my family, of which my great uncle was one of his friends in the 50's and his treasury secretary in Michigan and helped create the Teamsters of which i am a 27 year member as well, that there is no body left to find.
1993 seems both like yesterday and long ago,,,, i drive a truck and when i go down telegraph past 15 mile i cant help but think what really happened for a minute
My late ex-husband and I used to frequently have dinner at Machus Red Fox and invariably our conversation would lead to wondering what really happened to Hoffa. The Mafia covered it's tracks well in this case.
they've had a lot of practice. i lived just outside chicago in cicero - capone's playground. the mob has had a lot of practice covering their tracks....
An excellent documentary. Many of those interviewed are no long gone, so to have their statements memorialized is another interesting facet to this endlessly fascinating case.
Sometimes it's a principle thing. He loved his union and fitz was spineless, I think he thought marcello would step in and help his cause. Jimmy knew all the bosses well. Those conspirators all went to jail or murdered, so their greed was foolish, hoffa only wanted revenge on fitz
There is no reason to argue about this anymore... He's dead. There will be no suspects, because they're dead; no witnesses, because they're dead; no forensics because it's gone; all you have left is common sense...
The FBI should release the Hoffa and JFK files, every single page. Something quite bad, or self incriminating, at least with JFK, is in his files. Otherwise, the FBI would have already released them. Shady.
I have been trying to get the JFK files ,which contains information on RFK,MLK ,HOFFA, SINCE 2017. IN DEED I KNOW FOR A FACT HAVE FACTS BIDEN AND TRUMP ALIKE ARE KEEPING HID. BIDEN AND TRUMP HAVE THE SAME GOAL. KEEPING THE FILES FROM THE PUBLIC.
UPDATE: Tony "Jacks" and Chucky O'Brien are DEAD too. Giaccalone died at the end of the 1990's (the decade this show was produced) and O'Brien just a few years ago. Bufalino was a Mafia "boss" NO greater than Provenzano and so would NOT have delegated a "hit" contract to another "boss". And Bufalino had NO personal interest in the matter of Hoffa's intended return to Teamster power; whereas Provenzano and Giaccalone DID. "The Garden State" (my birth State) was a MAJOR trucking thoroughfare and Hoffa and Provenzano (the Mafia "boss" of northern New Jersey) had a PERSONAL feud dating from their prison tenure together in the late '60's while Giaccalone was of course a Mafia "underboss" in Jimmy's hometown of Detroit; effectively if not officially Teamster headquarters. TOGETHER they ARRANGED to have Hoffa executed BUT it was NOT their decision; such an act of magnitude potentially affecting ALL the States had to come from the decision of the "Commission".... the Crime Syndicate "bosses" of each State. THEY are the ones who assigned the "Contract" to Giaccalone and Provenzano. But it does NOT make sense that Provenzano would have used "soldiers" like the Berguglio and Andretta brothers from his own crew or the New York gangs when Giaccalone had within reach Hoffa's trusted step-son O'Brien, his OWN son Joey (whose car was used to pick Hoffa up though curiously, as if to implicate Provenzano, it had JERSEY plates!), and a close associate of Hoffa's. And it's PLAUSIBLE for Chucky to have been driving Giaccalone's son's car because THAT'S WHO Hoffa would have TRUSTED MOST of the three to take him to an ALTERNATE rondezvous with Giaccalone Sr. and Tony "Pro" when they suspiciously DIDN'T show at the "designated" one. Therefore, whether Hoffa sat in the front seat next to Chucky (which is MOST likely and one alleged eyewitness reported seeing) OR in the back of the 🚗, it seems he was SHOT DEAD in the back of the head while sitting IN the 🚗 (which is WHY O'Brien later had the inside of it cleaned) and as Bacow (HALF-)claimed, DUMPED (NOT "buried") WITHIN a 20 MINUTE (NOT "mile") distance of the restaurant. I SAY "DUMPED" because there was a PERFECT reason for setting up the sham meeting at The Machus Red 🦊Restaurant": any GOOGLE Satellite Maps view of the area will show that north of the restaurant (the direction they were SEEN heading by the witness) is the "Lakes District" (actually artificial ponds) of Detroit; any one of which would have been a PERFECT "dumping pit" for the disposal or "🌊 burial" of a body!! As I have posted on other videos about this topic (and this one SUPPORTS my theory from a "reputable" source) Hoffa is in a 🛢️ at the BOTTOM of one of those ponds. 😎
While I disagree with the 'pond dump' theory, and lean more towards complete bodily distruction like cremation, I agree with everything else you said we'll done. I personally think he was led to Lenny Shultz house and killed there. Then driven straight to either a crematorium, or his body handed off to another party for disposal.
@@Khaymen223 I don't think they would have done a "hit" in a 🏠 that would have possibly left INCRIMINATING evidence. Even Mafioli were SMARTER than THAT. Besides, cremating corpses (UNless the Mob OWNED a funeral home) was NOT its preferred method of disposal any more than shooting somebody in one of the gang's houses!! They liked DUMPING bodies in 🛢s and sending them to the bottom of the 🌊. THIS is why I think they chose the restaurant as the FAKE rondezvous for the meeting: because it was CLOSE to NUMEROUS bodies of 🌊; ANY ONE of which would have made an excellent "dump site" AND additionally PERPLEXED authorities WHICH ONE to start dredging first. The cops would have been at it ALL YEAR going through the ten-twenty ponds in the area and BY THAT time the body would have FULLY decomposed. REMEMBER, DNA ID testing DIDN'T EXIST back in the 1970's for identifying human remains; so cremation WASN'T necessary.
If you wanna know what happened to him- listen to Scott Burnstein’s podcast- he came up with the most plausible theory imo which is that Hoffa was taken to his friend and teamster liaison to the Detroit mafia- Lenny Schultz home 10 minutes from the Red Fox restaurant- clipped by a team most likely consisted of Carlo Licata, Sally Bugs, Billy Giacalone and Lenny. Tony Giacalone may or may not have been there with Jack Tocco (some believe they wanted to watch him die) then his body was driven 15 minutes away to Central Sanitation, a garbage disposal plant owned by members of the Detroit mafia, and incinerated. This would have happened almost immediately after the murder. There is no body ppl. There never was a body. The ppl who planned and executed this hit are way too smart to drive the most well known person in the US at that time (other than the president) across state lines to NJ 15 hours away. Central Sanitation also burned down 2 months later before the FBI could get a warrant for the place in a “mysterious arson fire”. That’s not a coincidence. Lol. Carlo Licata, a member of the hit team and Jack Tocco’s brother in law was also murdered 1 year to the day (almost to the minute) of Hoffa being killed because some in Detroit mafia upper echelon believed he might talk and he was almost using the fact that he was so close to the boss and involved in the murder as a way to flaunt power he didn’t really have.
Yeah I’ve listened to Scott a few times and he’s good with with Al Profit as well but, if they can’t tell us exactly what happened to Hoffa, I’m sure gunner lindbloom will tell us, he’s so connected it’s untrue haha, but seriously, your right buddy, Scott has dug really deep into the Hoffa disappearance and what he’s come up with, it’s good enough for me that’s for sure.
@The Kids Nice Yes, I think, overall, it a VERY plausible theory indeed (granted, ONLY God Himself knows what happened for sure)! However, the ONLY thing that strikes me as odd about Tony Giacolone is, WHY (by why, I mean it would've defeated the purpose) would he be at the house of death (or wherever Hoffa died) WHEN it was established (he had an alibi, by the way) he spent most of, if not ALL, the day at the Southfield Athletic Club (his headquarters) and, for a man who reportedly was NOT really a people person (me neither but, that's irrelevant), he made it a point to go out of his way to make sure AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE saw and/or talked to him that particular day (July 30, 1975)?!
Une chose est sûre soit il À était incinéré soit il l'on fait disparaitre avec L'acide sulfurique pauvre Jimmy Hoffa 🙏🙏 qu'il repose en paix Amen 🙏 cordialement 🇨🇵🇨🇵👍☘️
from what my father told me, and he knows the right people to ask, the story of the smelting is true. my great uncle was hoffa's treasury secretary in the 50's Larry Sammut.
Listen, I'm 100% positive that Nobody was ever going to touch a Hair on Hoffa's Head without the Detroit Combination giving the OK. Tony Jack had knowledge of everything that happened.
Jimmy was A GOOD MAN!!!!! He did SO MUCH GOOD FOR THE WORKING BLUE COLOR WORKERS!! I’ve sat on his lap when he came to our house, I loved him, loved when he came over, He & My Father were close friends! He was a stand up guy no one intimidated him! Same as my Father was. I Also remember that day July 30th. My Dad got the call & he was going to Detroit ASAP! I HATE WHEN PEOPLE TALK BADLY ABOUT HIM!
you are right; Mr. Hoffa saved our family; my dad was a teamster and barely making enough for us to live. then after a long strike our lives changed and we were not rich but very comfortable. after my dad died, my mom was taken care of financially and also with her insurance. When big biz and the govt use the mafia few say a word. In fact many feel JFK got elected due to his dad getting the mob to help; but hoffa knew the mob had the muscle to stand up to the companies.
In the thumbnail photo, Mr. Hoffa resembles Harvey Keitel. What happened to Jimmy R. Hoffa? To this day, that's the million dollar question! This story will be forgotten along with the generation of people who still remember how BIG this was in the seventies..
I'm a bit surprised that Jimmy didn't get the bigger picture and the forces ranging against him. He did his time and kept his mouth shut, I wish he had thought about "himself" for once.
@@flightofthebumblebee9529In my house Hoffa was a hero. I was a teenager at best when this happened but my dad was a Teamster member. His pension was INCREDIBLE compared to todays standard. He DID NOT WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING. Great medical, great pension, and money in the bank. Retirement was at that time 55 years old, now 65 and months. He saw that reagan was going to bust the unions. So he retired. And my father deservedly earned it all. RIP My Wise Father
Watching a documentary 49 years after Hoffa was whacked that was filmed 17 years after he qas whacked. RUclips is the closest we got to a time machine.
His downfall was simple and envitable. He had been in prison for his corruption and mafia connections, the mafia were nervous he might be cooperating with the feds (or may do in the future, or was at least a target for fed survellience and someone they couldn't work with or have running the union) and so when Hoffa tried to regain control of the Teamsters union, they paid him over $1 million to 'retire' but Hoffa started a public media compaign to regain his control of the Teamsters Union which extremely angered and concerned the New York mafia families so they decided to get rid of him permanently and make him disappear because he was a walking liability and a major risk to the mafia bosses... a sit down was arranged with Hoffa under the pretext of support by one family for his return to the Teamsters Union, but at this sitdown he was murdered and his body cremated at a funeral facility with mafia connections used for disposing of bodies, hence why his body has never been found. Hoffa was just greedy and underestimated the mafia. Iƒ he was wise he would have taken his early retirement and could have lived out the rest of his life a wealthy man as $1.3 million dollars back then was a lot of money, but he foolishly did what he did, which drew heat and attention to the mafia and union connection and money loans to Las Vegas Casino projects controlled by the mafia, so he brought about his own downfall by pure greed. This former top cappo in the Mafia tells how it went down: ruclips.net/video/bd4Gp9e08og/видео.html Hoffa was foolishly lured to a sit down at some discrete remote house with one supposedly sympathetic mafia boss about his return to running the Teamsters Union, but when he arrived there (driven there by someone he trusted who had turned on him) he was taken to the basement and shot dead. His body was wrapped up put in a vehicle and taken to a crematorium used by the mafia to dispose of bodies..no body, no crime.. Hoffa just disappeared without a trace. It's been said many times, that the mafia put out numerous different misinformation and stories in the mafia community about Hoffa being buried in different places to frustrate the feds and just distract from what really happened to him.
Brilliant guy in a way for what he was and where he came from sure but he sure sold out the people he was suppose to be looking out for - the regular blue collar union worker - how many of those poor guys who believed in Hoffa found their retirement pensions gone because of Hoffa's "loans" to the Mob from the teamsters pension fund?
@@paullangton-rogers2390 This is what I think happened too. Not everything is some huge conspiracy and most often the easiest explanation would be the likely one. The silly rumors of him beneath the meadowlands and all this other nonsense is absurd. Nobody is taking a body farther than they have to. It would've been extremely easy to burn it in the crematory and obviously they don't know where the murder took place and even if they did they would have no DNA or anything, not back then. Dead end after dead end and by using buffers for the buffers nobody even involved would know exactly what they were involved in.
Exactement il à pas voulu écouter c'est amies qui lui ons conseiller de laisser tomber mais Jimmy Hoffa avait une personnalité très dur qu'il repose en paix Amen 🙏 cordialement 🇨🇵🇨🇵👍
@@hakimrouachi5940 It sounds like they tried to warn him fairly (meaning, as far an organization of dangerous, even murderous, people showing restraint and wanting to spare a life if possible would do, within reason, of course). I figure when people like that actually DON'T want to harm you, you might want to consider (maybe reconsider) the route you're going!
I Agree Jack looked like Hoffa spoke like Hoffa and was Jimmy Hoffa in that movie, Al Pacino's Hoffa was his worse role , Scorsese should have asked Jack to play the role again All the main actors in the Irishman were old so why not get Jack to play Hoffa again. Pacino for such a great actor sucked playing Hoffa
@@i.marr.6688 I'm not telling you you're wrong...but cmon, Pacino was pretty good. Had the strange little accent. Energetic and charming. Tenacious.. And hilarious *also, pretty sure it's Scorcese's last major film..so, he was sure to have his main guys all working together, which may have hurt in some ways, but is a plus in others. The 'de-aging' didn't work. It was a major distraction. Especially DeNiro..
At 36:11 the narration says Chuckie got the borrowed car cleaned at a car wash not far from the Red Fox, but the accompanying image sure looks like the JAX at Grand River and Orchard Lake in Farmington (still operating today under a different name). Maybe not far from where he was "delivering a leaky salmon", but quite a bit more of a drive from the Red Fox.
@@djquinn11 Based on the rest of the surroundings, though -- including the building attached to it in the picture -- I'd still say the Jax in the photo is the Farmington location. Maybe it had to stand in for the documentary because the Tel-Twelve location wasn't there anymore?
I can say Hoffa made sure he took care of his family. I met Hoffa before the Kennedy assassination. He was trying to convince my dad that killing the Kennedy's was the right thing to do. Although Jack Ruby pulled my dad off the Kennedy assassination when Jack learned that my dad took epileptic seizures. But before Jack pulled my dad off Kennedy's assassination, Hoffa kept repeating the same statement to my dad. That statement was this. " It's them or us , its their families or ours". "Its their lives or ours." He kept repeating that over and over to my dad . I was there and I saw and heard him say that with my own eyes and ears. Hoffa hated me and he would get my dad to send me away. I was a pretty smart kid and I tried to get my dad to not mess with Hoffa. Hoffa was also rude to my dad. I hated Hoffa even more than he hated me. It was Jack Ruby that made some changes and I never saw Hoffa much after that , but I don't know whether my dad did or not. I do remember after that, my mom cooked a large meal for my family, Jack and Hoffa. My dad sat at one end of the table ,me at the other end. Jack Ruby to my right ,Hoffa sat beside Jack with my dad on Hoffa's other side. My brother sat to my left ,my mother to his left. My mom sat between my brother and my dad. I remember we had to put an extra leaf in the table because table was so full of food and deserts. Jack Ruby made the compliment to my mom that he had eaten at restaurants all around the world but my mom's cooking was the best he had ever eaten. After the meal Hoffa, Jack and my dad went into the barn to have a meeting. Nobody could cook fried chicken like my mom, Jack always took some to go. We lived along the railroad track and a trainstation was just a few hundred feet away. Jack would ride the passenger train in and out of town. That's how Jack was able to visit so often. Our home was marked so the hobos knew my mom would give them food AND ,COFFEE. She would feed anybody that was hungry. I loved Jack, he was a great man. With all that said, I do believe Hoffa did try to do what he could to pull the TEAMSTERS together. My dad was 100% union till the day he died. He was disabled 20 years before he died and they still payed his funeral bill for my mom. I guess as I came to be older ,I do understand Hoffa and what and why he did it a little better. As for me, most places I have worked in my life treated me pretty good and all, but 1 never needed a union. That one I quit after a year. The others tried to treat people well, and there was no need for a union. But I do understand some places will try to take advantage of people without one.
Old enough to remember what Hoffa looked like back then and old enough to remember my mom putting me in front of a TV Jack Ruby bought us so I could watch the JFK assassination on live TV and also I could watch my godfather Jack Ruby shoot Oswald on live TV while my mother explained to me the truth about the whole thing. Old enough to remember Hoffa having what looked like a scar above the temple on one side of his head. Now, I don't hate Hoffa, but back when I was 4 and 5 years old he was a scary man to me. My dad liked him . Several of my family members liked Hoffa better than Jack Ruby but I felt like Jack protected me. I am old enough to remember my mom telling me,we couldn't call the law because that law might be working for the mafia too. I remember my mom telling me mafia is all my family has ever known, all we will ever know, and I might as well get use to it. I am old enough and have a perfect memory, which at times I wish I didn't have. I hold all even the tiny things pertaining to the JFK assassination and more. I am old enough that, if all I have written about the JFK assassination over the past 8 years that the government should summoned me to court to testify or put me in a crazy house. They know I am for real and don't know how to deal with a person JACK RUBY left to tell the whole truth after 50 years from the assassination. I don't play games. This is what I was taught was my reason for living. If the mafia had picked someone older there was a chance that a person's memory could fail. The mafia did leave two of us to do this job but the other one couldn't take the pressure of it all and killed himself. I am all that is left with the whole story. My mom went over it with me again before she died in 2007.
One more thing I am old enough to remember before I was picked for this job Jack giving me a memory test. He would show me pi tures and about a month later he came back and ask me questions about the pictures. I remembered everything in the pictures ,along with the colors and little things. I saw 2 murders at age of 4 and remember all those details to. The mafia ,my family and everyo e else was intrigued with my memory. I at that time had a photographic memory. If I am lieing why does the authorities not arrested me .I sent them 20 page letters to 5 different law enforcement agencies. All they can do is pretent I don't exist.
@ricardolozano5356 Sir ,with all due respect ,you are wrong. I have told and told who, how and why Kennedy was assassinated. I know that it is hard for some people to conceive, but it is true. I don't know you but I will swear under oath,take any lie detector test .I have filed police reports. Why do they not charge me for filing a false police report. BY the way that would have to be a federal charge. They know that if I am put before a court anywhere in the country .I will tell my true story .They know that cat is out of the bag,the can of worms is open and I have struck the nail right on the head. The government has always known there is a person "I" that was left to tell all the details of the assassination. How would they know? Here's how : Jack Ruby kept taking my picture several pictures, two copies of each picture. Jack kept a copy and left me a copy. I have my copies yet. Jack took locks of my hair along with other things. He handed these things over to be put in his records. Then Jack turned these records about me to the government .These records of me ,matching pictures of me and locks of hair are in the remainder of the JFK ASSASSINATION Files. If they release the files The government will realize they no longer have a choice but admit a portion of the guilt. If they take me to court for any reason , I will only talk about the ASSASSINATION. So what are their options? Crazy house. That won't work because I have too many friends that will stand up and say I'm not crazy. Jail? I have to have a trial. I get to talk about the assassination more. What this is coming down to is I will be summoned to testify before Congress. Remember ,I say, just Like Jack Ruby I want a liars detector test. Their hands are tied. Even if they kill me I have left copies of the truth to only be released after my death.
What happened was this: Tammy Faye Bakker was called before congress to testify and was told to take off her makeup first. Turns out, she was Jimmy Hoffa.
I think Hoffa beleaved he was so in with the Mob they wouldn't hurt him. He was not Italian. That alone made him a outsider. He was sadly mistaken in his own belief he was untouchable
The Jimmy Hoffa disappearance remains one of the most intriguing mysteries. This 1993 WDIV special provides an in-depth exploration of the case, shedding light on various theories and key moments. A must-watch for true crime enthusiasts!
Their nicknames are some of the weirdest, “Junior Lollipops”, “Jackie Nose”, “Butterass”! Growing up I believed the worst case scenario would be "swimming with the fishes" or crossing paths with Capone, Gotti, or Lucky on a bad day until I discovered and learned about Jimmy Hoffa. Whoever planned and pulled off his disappearance/murder has changed my thoughts.
My dad was a teamster, and Jimmy Hoffa was his union rep for Ryerson Tull Steel in Detroit. When their work went on strike he said they would shake the scabs in their cars and really try to mess them up. Him and his buddies had fun on the strikes I think. lol but my dad had only nice things to say about Hoffa.
my dad did after the long strike in the 70's. he didn't support him at the start but after a while he did so much for the unions it wasn't funny. He did a lot of kind things that he didn't advertise.
🤣 😂. Go check out some of Michael Franzese videos if you already havent already, he’s got a really good sit down series and he does some public appearances. One of the main questions he is always asked, “Who Killed Hoffa” 😂.
Today the Teamsters union is weak and has been for along time. I was a member of 507 Cleveland ohio ,nothing but sweetheart contracts after Hoffa was done away with. Teamsters are no more corrupt than our Government! Look what's going on today. Its sickening...
I would just like to point out that I Heard You Paint Houses might as well have been written by L. Ron Hubbard for all of the fantasy that book contains. It was disappointing that the Big 3 finished their careers together on such a flat note.
It was still a great movie by great actors even though it’s not factual as to what really happened to Hoffa. Lots of great movies are fiction so it wasn’t a sad way for the big 3 as you call them to finish their mob movie careers…
I thought it wuz pretty good especially the true characters I never had heard of buffalino he is a interesting guy & I liked how it wuz kind of a prequel 2 casino
Jimmy Hoffa is like Donald Trump a hero at villain in that people feared Jimmy Hoffa but Jimmy Hoffa helped a lot of people I think Jimmy Hoffa is A man who amazed people cause he was hard working and getrdone type but could be a nice guy too
Don't worry the ALMIGHTY will strengthen it all out people when he that is Worthy is crowned King of the jews returns to take his rightful place as the Almighty God and Father and until then let us all Look up. Selah Shalom 👍✝️✌️ CHEERS
You know that the reason we haven't found him yet but he could've been grounded up for mulch and used for compost and it was used anywhere at any place
Yes, the man is still alive somewhere - because death does not end life, only changes location.... Hopefully, he accepted the Divine Mercy+💖 that is offered to every human being - but is willfully rejected by quite many.🙏
@@waltwilliams7063 Well if Heaven is the wonderful place the Church teaches it is, then your mum may just be having a great reunion with all her canine companions.
There must be something in the water in little town of Brazil, Indiana. That place has probably produced more influential people per capita than anywhere else, including: Jimmy Hoffa Orville Redenbacher, popcorn magnate Henry Lee Summer, rock star Judy Ledgerwood, abstract artist Joe Dean, basketball broadcaster John McKenzie, bible scholar and author Stuart Randall, prolific film actor who was in The Ten Commandments and True Grit John Dugan, movie actor who was in The Texas Chainsaw massacre
The old saying that the FBI always gets their man who they had wiretapped and had under surveillance at times and they knew nothing saw nothing heard nothing and spoke nothing?
If he was that dumb not to take his s o n advice to have a bodyguard or to carry a gun he got what he deserved. You're that dumb to go into place by yourself, he should have took Nixon pardon, but no he was a loose cannon finally and the cannon blew up in his face
He was dissolved in acid or incinerated. His remains were spread all over, maybe in 100 places, mixed in cement, in steel, in sewage processing, maybe a little in pizza dough, pepperoni, or sauce, in various bodies of water…
And the very old retired police officer, remembers it like yesterday, and remembers who Jimmy Hoffa is, and never forgot, and it’s one of his drinking stories
Keep in mind that should the IRS find some problem, YOU are responsible, not the accountants, lawyers and tax preparers YOU hire. My tax return is fairly straightforward but there is no WAY I prepare it myself. I have to depend on professionals, yet, if something is wrong, I am the one they go after.
"Hoffa staging his own disappearance is totally out of character for Hoffa". So what? People will do things that are far out of character if they're doing them out of *NECESSITY* . Yes maybe it was in his nature to be totally stubborn and fight but if he was faced with an abyss he absolutely could have staged his own disappearance. I'm not sure how likely that is, but you can't rule it out on the basis of it being out of character. Don't underestimate the human obligation to survive.
i havent wanted to watch a single second of this, but youtube forces it down our throats because Local 4 news evidently is much more popular than every other channel
When I was in the joint I worked in the infirmary, one of the old Gansters there was losing his mental faculty's and always talking about making hot dogs out of Hoffa and giving them to the street venders.
All this b4 my time but i do recall the horror when my parents found out he was missing. They both immediately said to each other. He is dead. Both my parents were team hoffa.
JIMMY HOFFA, A GREAT AMERICAN. THE BEST FREIND WORKING PEOPLE EVER HAD. GOD BLESS YOU JIMMY HOFFA, SIR. I HOPE YOU HAVE YOUR HEAVEN. AND BY NOW IT'S UNIONIZED, IT'S TEAMSRERS.

Growing up 50 miles south of Detroit, has made me fascinated by this Hoffa story. His disappearance will always be dark.
Hoffa dès là minutes où il À était Assassiné c'est meurtriè L'on fait disparaitre dans de L'acide sulfurique pauvre Jimmy Hoffa 🙏🙏 qu'il repose en paix Amen 🙏 cordialement 🇨🇵🇨🇵👍☘️
ummm not really dark it is what it is, he got clapped and put ina bin
He was cremated at Jimmy Quasuranos garbage disposal plant within 30 minutes of his death. He will never be found. Hes ashes. Jimmy was warned live on your pension and keep your mouth shut.
The Jimmy Hoffa case is the best mob secret that no one knows anything to this day. Really enjoyed watching thanks for sharing.
It's not just a mob story. Teamsters, mafia, Nixon is a reality that was passed down to me by a man that was in the cigar smoke filled rooms with the whole bunch. The FBI always get their man as they used to say. Almost impossible they didn't know who killed Hoffa. That same man got the reality based visit from the men in black and promptly resigned his powerful position or he could join his friend Jimmy.Those who care about the working man don't last long in the darkened halls of power. All these wacked out conspiracy theories and fantasy land movies are rather sad and pathetic.
My disappearance did make me an Iconic figure.
" I would write the book but I would be dead before the first chapter." Those words were spoken to me by one of Mr. Hoffa's best friends 2 years after he was disappeared. Who killed Hoffa is irrelevant, they were just the peons carrying out orders from much higher powers that be. One would be a conspiracy theorist to say anymore. Ha Ha.
uhhhhh......... 2nd, jfk would be the best.
Hoffa is a founding pillar of the Renaissance Center. Meaning he is a piece of the foundation
He should have just left his mouth shut and enjoyed his retirement..... 25,000 a month in 1975 was incredible, it would be incredible today.....
Silly man his ego got him killed
Yeah but that wasn’t the kind of man he was . This kind of ambitious guy just can’t retire and ride off in the sun set and because of that he paid the ultimate price. The details are murky but the end result is the same . Hoffa died the day he disappeared and imo there is nothing left of him to find
He put unions on the map and helped citizens move up to the middle class. He did it the way all accomplish men do it following the American model plan. What ever works to get what you need. Politicians , law enforcement the average citizens do it today. Glad Hoffa made it for the working man
Yes indeed! The employees in the Teamsters Union wanted me back. Too bad my organized crime associates didn't feel the same way.
@@July-yk3un Gee Jimmy you sound great for a 109yr old man !🤒
don't forget he left the teamsters up sh*ts creek without a paddle when he raided the teamster's fund for his mob buddies to build las vegas with... he screwed the working man there. my dad got a dime on the pension dollar when he retired , after 36 years, of driving truck in chicago's loop.
I agree. I think any loss of human life is a shame but it's a complex world with sooooo many moving parts. There is no doubt that Jimmy Hoffa was a self made man (pun sort of intended) and he cared a lot and did a lot for the working man. It would benefit America a lot to have someone like that now, with dirt under their fingernails.
it seemed that way..yes. BUT the financially broke teamsters union was unable to pay ALL THOSE TEAMSTERS their duly earned pension. my dad got pennies on the dollar so hoffa acted to tear down a portion of the middle class.
the teamsters were a huge union, encompassing a LOT OF PEOPLE and hoffa sold them out for more "power" - he bargained with money but his goal was more power.
Why thank ya for uploading ❤
from what i was told by people in my family, of which my great uncle was one of his friends in the 50's and his treasury secretary in Michigan and helped create the Teamsters of which i am a 27 year member as well, that there is no body left to find.
Yep in Australia we had the painters and dockers real criminals, many bodies allegedly made into sausage
1993 seems both like yesterday and long ago,,,, i drive a truck and when i go down telegraph past 15 mile i cant help but think what really happened for a minute
He on Big Braver Rd off of intersection of 69 and 96.
Lol, same here. I have renovated several homes in the immediate area, I always think of Hoffa when I pass Andiamo’s
@@iamgriffits hard to believe that 1975 and 1993 are closer in time than 1993 and 20024!🤔
My dad worked with Hoffa. Once, he told Hoffa that his son admired him. Hoffa's first response to my dad was "How old is your son?"
I don’t get it
He wanted him as a driver!!👍🏼
👍
I don’t get it either.
@@Suzyfromtheblock it's a bot. ignore it
A man like Hoffa would never abandon his family.
Unless he believed his presence put their lives in danger
And JFK was a TRUE Husband .
@@RubyJack-z8qo
JFK was a horrible husband, but an awesome president!!@@Ray-o5e
Remember when he called a strike, there was not a truck on the road!!!
My late ex-husband and I used to frequently have dinner at Machus Red Fox and invariably our conversation would lead to wondering what really happened to Hoffa. The Mafia covered it's tracks well in this case.
wasnt the mafia. think bigger organized crime family
As for me I didn't find him under my sink 😭 just cleaning stuff
they've had a lot of practice. i lived just outside chicago in cicero - capone's playground. the mob has had a lot of practice covering their tracks....
Hey, it's just a business no different than the Clintons machine.
Hoffa worked as a dishwasher at the Machus Red Fox for many years afterward and was taken in as a boarder at the home of one of his co-workers.
An excellent documentary. Many of those interviewed are no long gone, so to have their statements memorialized is another interesting facet to this endlessly fascinating case.

Likllkllllllllkllkllk
then why did they block the comments on the first one?
Any "doc" that cites the LIES of Chuckie is BOGUS!!!!!
Guy should have taken the hint and just let it go.. the mob gave him ample opportunity and told him you are done and he didn’t listen.
Sometimes it's a principle thing. He loved his union and fitz was spineless, I think he thought marcello would step in and help his cause. Jimmy knew all the bosses well. Those conspirators all went to jail or murdered, so their greed was foolish, hoffa only wanted revenge on fitz
@@williamrogers7974
No doubt, thanks for having my back.
hoffa's ego was just too big to let it go
Almost like Donald Trump….
It was his life. Without it, he felt like he may as well die.
...Now that was a good one... Thank you... "And the Beat Go's On" 👍😎✨🎇
I feel sorry for his kids
They have No closures
There is no reason to argue about this anymore... He's dead.
There will be no suspects, because they're dead; no witnesses, because they're dead; no forensics because it's gone; all you have left is common sense...
Like flogging a dead horse !
And memories
The FBI should release the Hoffa and JFK files, every single page. Something quite bad, or self incriminating, at least with JFK, is in his files. Otherwise, the FBI would have already released them. Shady.
for sure! too many secrets. Their hope is by the time the truth is released it's been so long so no one cares
I have been trying to get the JFK files ,which contains information on RFK,MLK ,HOFFA, SINCE 2017. IN DEED I KNOW FOR A FACT HAVE FACTS BIDEN AND TRUMP ALIKE ARE KEEPING HID. BIDEN AND TRUMP HAVE THE SAME GOAL. KEEPING THE FILES FROM THE PUBLIC.
Yes the JFK FILES SHOULD be released. The Law stated they by law were to be released in 2017. BIDEN AND TRUMP WORK TOGETHER TO KEEP THEM HIDE
I agree with your comment .and are 100% right
Robson St. was the Hoffa home. Pretty crazy to see how bad that neighborhood has gotten
I just love how many people thought he was buried in the end zone of Giants Stadium for many years. Some people will believe anything.
Or even at Michigan stadium they even dug it up.
He could be in Lake Powell or any place in the states
I seriously doubt an intact body was left.
nobody believed that
I'm sure he was incinerated immediately afterwards .
UPDATE: Tony "Jacks" and Chucky O'Brien are DEAD too. Giaccalone died at the end of the 1990's (the decade this show was produced) and O'Brien just a few years ago.
Bufalino was a Mafia "boss" NO greater than Provenzano and so would NOT have delegated a "hit" contract to another "boss". And Bufalino had NO personal interest in the matter of Hoffa's intended return to Teamster power; whereas Provenzano and Giaccalone DID. "The Garden State" (my birth State) was a MAJOR trucking thoroughfare and Hoffa and Provenzano (the Mafia "boss" of northern New Jersey) had a PERSONAL feud dating from their prison tenure together in the late '60's while Giaccalone was of course a Mafia "underboss" in Jimmy's hometown of Detroit; effectively if not officially Teamster headquarters. TOGETHER they ARRANGED to have Hoffa executed BUT it was NOT their decision; such an act of magnitude potentially affecting ALL the States had to come from the decision of the "Commission".... the Crime Syndicate "bosses" of each State. THEY are the ones who assigned the "Contract" to
Giaccalone and Provenzano. But it does NOT make sense that Provenzano would have used "soldiers" like the Berguglio and Andretta brothers from his own crew or the New York gangs when Giaccalone had within reach Hoffa's trusted step-son O'Brien, his OWN son Joey (whose car was used to pick Hoffa up though curiously, as if to implicate Provenzano, it had JERSEY plates!), and a close associate of Hoffa's. And it's PLAUSIBLE for Chucky to have been driving Giaccalone's son's car because THAT'S WHO Hoffa would have TRUSTED MOST of the three to take him to an ALTERNATE rondezvous with Giaccalone Sr. and Tony "Pro" when they suspiciously DIDN'T show at the "designated" one. Therefore, whether Hoffa sat in the front seat next to Chucky (which is MOST likely and one alleged eyewitness reported seeing) OR in the back of the 🚗, it seems he was SHOT DEAD in the back of the head while sitting IN the 🚗 (which is WHY O'Brien later had the inside of it cleaned) and as Bacow (HALF-)claimed, DUMPED (NOT "buried") WITHIN a 20 MINUTE (NOT "mile") distance of the restaurant. I SAY "DUMPED" because there was a PERFECT reason for setting up the sham meeting at The Machus Red 🦊Restaurant": any GOOGLE Satellite Maps view of the area will show that north of the restaurant (the direction they were SEEN heading by the witness) is the "Lakes District" (actually artificial ponds) of Detroit; any one of which would have been a PERFECT "dumping pit" for the disposal or "🌊 burial" of a body!!
As I have posted on other videos about this topic (and this one SUPPORTS my theory from a "reputable" source) Hoffa is in a 🛢️ at the BOTTOM of one of those ponds. 😎
Dear me,can you edit this with commas ??? I’m getting dizzy ffs !
While I disagree with the 'pond dump' theory, and lean more towards complete bodily distruction like cremation, I agree with everything else you said we'll done.
I personally think he was led to Lenny Shultz house and killed there. Then driven straight to either a crematorium, or his body handed off to another party for disposal.
@@Khaymen223 I don't think they would have done a "hit" in a 🏠 that would have possibly left INCRIMINATING evidence. Even Mafioli were SMARTER than THAT. Besides, cremating corpses (UNless the Mob OWNED a funeral home) was NOT its preferred method of disposal any more than shooting somebody in one of the gang's houses!! They liked DUMPING bodies in 🛢s and sending them to the bottom of the 🌊. THIS is why I think they chose the restaurant as the FAKE rondezvous for the meeting: because it was CLOSE to NUMEROUS bodies of 🌊; ANY ONE of which would have made an excellent "dump site" AND additionally PERPLEXED authorities WHICH ONE to start dredging first. The cops would have been at it ALL YEAR going through the ten-twenty ponds in the area and BY THAT time the body would have FULLY decomposed. REMEMBER, DNA ID testing DIDN'T EXIST back in the 1970's for identifying human remains; so cremation WASN'T necessary.
If you wanna know what happened to him- listen to Scott Burnstein’s podcast- he came up with the most plausible theory imo which is that Hoffa was taken to his friend and teamster liaison to the Detroit mafia- Lenny Schultz home 10 minutes from the Red Fox restaurant- clipped by a team most likely consisted of Carlo Licata, Sally Bugs, Billy Giacalone and Lenny. Tony Giacalone may or may not have been there with Jack Tocco (some believe they wanted to watch him die) then his body was driven 15 minutes away to Central Sanitation, a garbage disposal plant owned by members of the Detroit mafia, and incinerated. This would have happened almost immediately after the murder. There is no body ppl. There never was a body. The ppl who planned and executed this hit are way too smart to drive the most well known person in the US at that time (other than the president) across state lines to NJ 15 hours away. Central Sanitation also burned down 2 months later before the FBI could get a warrant for the place in a “mysterious arson fire”. That’s not a coincidence. Lol. Carlo Licata, a member of the hit team and Jack Tocco’s brother in law was also murdered 1 year to the day (almost to the minute) of Hoffa being killed because some in Detroit mafia upper echelon believed he might talk and he was almost using the fact that he was so close to the boss and involved in the murder as a way to flaunt power he didn’t really have.
His partner is Al Profit. His channel is rocking. Also they do “Gangster Report” best true crime short stories web site.
Yeah I’ve listened to Scott a few times and he’s good with with Al Profit as well but, if they can’t tell us exactly what happened to Hoffa, I’m sure gunner lindbloom will tell us, he’s so connected it’s untrue haha, but seriously, your right buddy, Scott has dug really deep into the Hoffa disappearance and what he’s come up with, it’s good enough for me that’s for sure.
@The Kids Nice Yes, I think, overall, it a VERY plausible theory indeed (granted, ONLY God Himself knows what happened for sure)! However, the ONLY thing that strikes me as odd about Tony Giacolone is, WHY (by why, I mean it would've defeated the purpose) would he be at the house of death (or wherever Hoffa died) WHEN it was established (he had an alibi, by the way) he spent most of, if not ALL, the day at the Southfield Athletic Club (his headquarters) and, for a man who reportedly was NOT really a people person (me neither but, that's irrelevant), he made it a point to go out of his way to make sure AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE saw and/or talked to him that particular day (July 30, 1975)?!
Une chose est sûre soit il À était incinéré soit il l'on fait disparaitre avec L'acide sulfurique pauvre Jimmy Hoffa 🙏🙏 qu'il repose en paix Amen 🙏 cordialement 🇨🇵🇨🇵👍☘️
from what my father told me, and he knows the right people to ask, the story of the smelting is true. my great uncle was hoffa's treasury secretary in the 50's Larry Sammut.
Listen, I'm 100% positive that Nobody was ever going to touch a Hair on Hoffa's Head without the Detroit Combination giving the OK. Tony Jack had knowledge of everything that happened.
The Detroit Partnership
100% right because nothing goes down in this town without The Detroit Partnership's approval
Ok 😂😂
for sure!
Terrible his son and daughter and wife never saw him again, that’s sad
Jimmy was A GOOD MAN!!!!! He did SO MUCH GOOD FOR THE WORKING BLUE COLOR WORKERS!!
I’ve sat on his lap when he came to our house, I loved him, loved when he came over, He & My Father were close friends!
He was a stand up guy no one intimidated him!
Same as my Father was.
I Also remember that day July 30th.
My Dad got the call & he was going to Detroit ASAP!
I HATE WHEN PEOPLE TALK BADLY ABOUT HIM!
I had a very middle-class up bringing because of Jimmy Hoffa.
you are right; Mr. Hoffa saved our family; my dad was a teamster and barely making enough for us to live. then after a long strike our lives changed and we were not rich but very comfortable. after my dad died, my mom was taken care of financially and also with her insurance. When big biz and the govt use the mafia few say a word. In fact many feel JFK got elected due to his dad getting the mob to help; but hoffa knew the mob had the muscle to stand up to the companies.
It's a wander he didn't rang your neck like a chicken when you were on his lap. That's the kind of man he was.
In the thumbnail photo, Mr. Hoffa resembles Harvey Keitel. What happened to Jimmy R. Hoffa? To this day, that's the million dollar question! This story will be forgotten along with the generation of people who still remember how BIG this was in the seventies..
He we always be a cornerstone in our foundation.
I'm a bit surprised that Jimmy didn't get the bigger picture and the forces ranging against him. He did his time and kept his mouth shut, I wish he had thought about "himself" for once.
he was an ego-maniac, crooked as they come and was the president of the most powerful union in modern history
Kinda crazy how they gave him an early buyout and he tells the MOB to go fuq itself and refuses, only to go missing.
@@flightofthebumblebee9529In my house Hoffa was a hero. I was a teenager at best when this happened but my dad was a Teamster member. His pension was INCREDIBLE compared to todays standard. He DID NOT WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING. Great medical, great pension, and money in the bank. Retirement was at that time 55 years old, now 65 and months. He saw that reagan was going to bust the unions. So he retired. And my father deservedly earned it all. RIP My Wise Father
He thought of it as his union and was not a sellout.
@@sharonsmith1360 You can retire at 62 but won't get full pension benefits.

Watching a documentary 49 years after Hoffa was whacked that was filmed 17 years after he qas whacked.
RUclips is the closest we got to a time machine.
*Click on Detroit Jimmy Hoffa 1993 what happened to him? Appreciate your videos Listening 🌟 from Mass USA TYVM 💙*
A brilliant doc.about a brilliant man very strong & determined individual but very hardheaded which was probably his downfall.
His downfall was simple and envitable. He had been in prison for his corruption and mafia connections, the mafia were nervous he might be cooperating with the feds (or may do in the future, or was at least a target for fed survellience and someone they couldn't work with or have running the union) and so when Hoffa tried to regain control of the Teamsters union, they paid him over $1 million to 'retire' but Hoffa started a public media compaign to regain his control of the Teamsters Union which extremely angered and concerned the New York mafia families so they decided to get rid of him permanently and make him disappear because he was a walking liability and a major risk to the mafia bosses... a sit down was arranged with Hoffa under the pretext of support by one family for his return to the Teamsters Union, but at this sitdown he was murdered and his body cremated at a funeral facility with mafia connections used for disposing of bodies, hence why his body has never been found. Hoffa was just greedy and underestimated the mafia. Iƒ he was wise he would have taken his early retirement and could have lived out the rest of his life a wealthy man as $1.3 million dollars back then was a lot of money, but he foolishly did what he did, which drew heat and attention to the mafia and union connection and money loans to Las Vegas Casino projects controlled by the mafia, so he brought about his own downfall by pure greed.
This former top cappo in the Mafia tells how it went down:
ruclips.net/video/bd4Gp9e08og/видео.html
Hoffa was foolishly lured to a sit down at some discrete remote house with one supposedly sympathetic mafia boss about his return to running the Teamsters Union, but when he arrived there (driven there by someone he trusted who had turned on him) he was taken to the basement and shot dead. His body was wrapped up put in a vehicle and taken to a crematorium used by the mafia to dispose of bodies..no body, no crime.. Hoffa just disappeared without a trace.
It's been said many times, that the mafia put out numerous different misinformation and stories in the mafia community about Hoffa being buried in different places to frustrate the feds and just distract from what really happened to him.
Brilliant guy in a way for what he was and where he came from sure but he sure sold out the people he was suppose to be looking out for - the regular blue collar union worker - how many of those poor guys who believed in Hoffa found their retirement pensions gone because of Hoffa's "loans" to the Mob from the teamsters pension fund?
@@paullangton-rogers2390 This is what I think happened too. Not everything is some huge conspiracy and most often the easiest explanation would be the likely one. The silly rumors of him beneath the meadowlands and all this other nonsense is absurd. Nobody is taking a body farther than they have to. It would've been extremely easy to burn it in the crematory and obviously they don't know where the murder took place and even if they did they would have no DNA or anything, not back then. Dead end after dead end and by using buffers for the buffers nobody even involved would know exactly what they were involved in.
Exactement il à pas voulu écouter c'est amies qui lui ons conseiller de laisser tomber mais Jimmy Hoffa avait une personnalité très dur qu'il repose en paix Amen 🙏 cordialement 🇨🇵🇨🇵👍
@@hakimrouachi5940 It sounds like they tried to warn him fairly (meaning, as far an organization of dangerous, even murderous, people showing restraint and wanting to spare a life if possible would do, within reason, of course). I figure when people like that actually DON'T want to harm you, you might want to consider (maybe reconsider) the route you're going!
Nicholson absolutely nailed the role, down to almost every detail!!
I Agree Jack looked like Hoffa spoke like Hoffa and was Jimmy Hoffa in that movie, Al Pacino's Hoffa was his worse role , Scorsese should have asked Jack to play the role again All the main actors in the Irishman were old so why not get Jack to play Hoffa again. Pacino for such a great actor sucked playing Hoffa
@@i.marr.6688
I'm not telling you you're wrong...but cmon, Pacino was pretty good. Had the strange little accent. Energetic and charming. Tenacious..
And hilarious
*also, pretty sure it's Scorcese's last major film..so, he was sure to have his main guys all working together, which may have hurt in some ways, but is a plus in others.
The 'de-aging' didn't work. It was a major distraction. Especially DeNiro..
Bro he has a major film coming out in like a few weeks and it looks amazing. It’s got DiCaprio and Deniro.
i didn't like the movie but he had him down pat. you are totally right.
he's retired @@i.marr.6688
At 36:11 the narration says Chuckie got the borrowed car cleaned at a car wash not far from the Red Fox, but the accompanying image sure looks like the JAX at Grand River and Orchard Lake in Farmington (still operating today under a different name). Maybe not far from where he was "delivering a leaky salmon", but quite a bit more of a drive from the Red Fox.
There was a Jax car wash at 12 Mile & Telegraph back then.
@@djquinn11 Based on the rest of the surroundings, though -- including the building attached to it in the picture -- I'd still say the Jax in the photo is the Farmington location. Maybe it had to stand in for the documentary because the Tel-Twelve location wasn't there anymore?
Best ,I've seen,on this mystery.He sealed his fate.Favors from the mob,have to be paid back.
I can say Hoffa made sure he took care of his family. I met Hoffa before the Kennedy assassination. He was trying to convince my dad that killing the Kennedy's was the right thing to do. Although Jack Ruby pulled my dad off the Kennedy assassination when Jack learned that my dad took epileptic seizures. But before Jack pulled my dad off Kennedy's assassination, Hoffa kept repeating the same statement to my dad. That statement was this. " It's them or us , its their families or ours". "Its their lives or ours." He kept repeating that over and over to my dad . I was there and I saw and heard him say that with my own eyes and ears. Hoffa hated me and he would get my dad to send me away. I was a pretty smart kid and I tried to get my dad to not mess with Hoffa. Hoffa was also rude to my dad. I hated Hoffa even more than he hated me. It was Jack Ruby that made some changes and I never saw Hoffa much after that , but I don't know whether my dad did or not. I do remember after that, my mom cooked a large meal for my family, Jack and Hoffa. My dad sat at one end of the table ,me at the other end. Jack Ruby to my right ,Hoffa sat beside Jack with my dad on Hoffa's other side. My brother sat to my left ,my mother to his left. My mom sat between my brother and my dad. I remember we had to put an extra leaf in the table because table was so full of food and deserts. Jack Ruby made the compliment to my mom that he had eaten at restaurants all around the world but my mom's cooking was the best he had ever eaten. After the meal Hoffa, Jack and my dad went into the barn to have a meeting. Nobody could cook fried chicken like my mom, Jack always took some to go. We lived along the railroad track and a trainstation was just a few hundred feet away. Jack would ride the passenger train in and out of town. That's how Jack was able to visit so often. Our home was marked so the hobos knew my mom would give them food AND ,COFFEE. She would feed anybody that was hungry. I loved Jack, he was a great man. With all that said, I do believe Hoffa did try to do what he could to pull the TEAMSTERS together. My dad was 100% union till the day he died. He was disabled 20 years before he died and they still payed his funeral bill for my mom. I guess as I came to be older ,I do understand Hoffa and what and why he did it a little better. As for me, most places I have worked in my life treated me pretty good and all, but 1 never needed a union. That one I quit after a year. The others tried to treat people well, and there was no need for a union. But I do understand some places will try to take advantage of people without one.
how old are you?
Old enough to remember what Hoffa looked like back then and old enough to remember my mom putting me in front of a TV Jack Ruby bought us so I could watch the JFK assassination on live TV and also I could watch my godfather Jack Ruby shoot Oswald on live TV while my mother explained to me the truth about the whole thing. Old enough to remember Hoffa having what looked like a scar above the temple on one side of his head. Now, I don't hate Hoffa, but back when I was 4 and 5 years old he was a scary man to me. My dad liked him . Several of my family members liked Hoffa better than Jack Ruby but I felt like Jack protected me. I am old enough to remember my mom telling me,we couldn't call the law because that law might be working for the mafia too. I remember my mom telling me mafia is all my family has ever known, all we will ever know, and I might as well get use to it. I am old enough and have a perfect memory, which at times I wish I didn't have. I hold all even the tiny things pertaining to the JFK assassination and more. I am old enough that, if all I have written about the JFK assassination over the past 8 years that the government should summoned me to court to testify or put me in a crazy house. They know I am for real and don't know how to deal with a person JACK RUBY left to tell the whole truth after 50 years from the assassination. I don't play games. This is what I was taught was my reason for living. If the mafia had picked someone older there was a chance that a person's memory could fail. The mafia did leave two of us to do this job but the other one couldn't take the pressure of it all and killed himself. I am all that is left with the whole story. My mom went over it with me again before she died in 2007.
@@Ruby-eh2cr I think Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone
One more thing I am old enough to remember before I was picked for this job Jack giving me a memory test. He would show me pi tures and about a month later he came back and ask me questions about the pictures. I remembered everything in the pictures ,along with the colors and little things. I saw 2 murders at age of 4 and remember all those details to. The mafia ,my family and everyo e else was intrigued with my memory. I at that time had a photographic memory. If I am lieing why does the authorities not arrested me .I sent them 20 page letters to 5 different law enforcement agencies. All they can do is pretent I don't exist.
@ricardolozano5356 Sir ,with all due respect ,you are wrong. I have told and told who, how and why Kennedy was assassinated. I know that it is hard for some people to conceive, but it is true. I don't know you but I will swear under oath,take any lie detector test .I have filed police reports. Why do they not charge me for filing a false police report. BY the way that would have to be a federal charge.
They know that if I am put before a court anywhere in the country .I will tell my true story .They know that cat is out of the bag,the can of worms is open and I have struck the nail right on the head. The government has always known there is a person "I" that was left to tell all the details of the assassination. How would they know? Here's how : Jack Ruby kept taking my picture several pictures, two copies of each picture. Jack kept a copy and left me a copy. I have my copies yet. Jack took locks of my hair along with other things. He handed these things over to be put in his records. Then Jack turned these records about me to the government .These records of me ,matching pictures of me and locks of hair are in the remainder of the JFK ASSASSINATION Files. If they release the files The government will realize they no longer have a choice but admit a portion of the guilt. If they take me to court for any reason , I will only talk about the ASSASSINATION. So what are their options? Crazy house. That won't work because I have too many friends that will stand up and say I'm not crazy. Jail? I have to have a trial. I get to talk about the assassination more. What this is coming down to is I will be summoned to testify before Congress. Remember ,I say, just Like Jack Ruby I want a liars detector test. Their hands are tied. Even if they kill me I have left copies of the truth to only be released after my death.
What happened was this: Tammy Faye Bakker was called before congress to testify and was told to take off her makeup first. Turns out, she was Jimmy Hoffa.
😭
I always figured his ashes were on someone's mantle, or mixed with cement.
Remnants of his DNA are in the intestines of everybody who ordered a burger at the Red Fox the next couple of days after he "disappeared".
I think Hoffa beleaved he was so in with the Mob they wouldn't hurt him.
He was not Italian. That alone made him a outsider.
He was sadly mistaken in his own belief he was untouchable
Exactly
The Jimmy Hoffa disappearance remains one of the most intriguing mysteries. This 1993 WDIV special provides an in-depth exploration of the case, shedding light on various theories and key moments. A must-watch for true crime enthusiasts!
think Jack Nicholson played hoffa brilliantly the actions of him spot on 👌🏻🇬🇧
John and Bobby Kennedy where worst than Hoffa. Bobby harassed this man
Their nicknames are some of the weirdest, “Junior Lollipops”, “Jackie Nose”, “Butterass”! Growing up I believed the worst case scenario would be "swimming with the fishes" or crossing paths with Capone, Gotti, or Lucky on a bad day until I discovered and learned about Jimmy Hoffa. Whoever planned and pulled off his disappearance/murder has changed my thoughts.
My dad was a teamster, and Jimmy Hoffa was his union rep for Ryerson Tull Steel in Detroit. When their work went on strike he said they would shake the scabs in their cars and really try to mess them up. Him and his buddies had fun on the strikes I think. lol but my dad had only nice things to say about Hoffa.
my dad did after the long strike in the 70's. he didn't support him at the start but after a while he did so much for the unions it wasn't funny. He did a lot of kind things that he didn't advertise.
What happened to Hoffa? He got disappeared by the mob. He wanted to be a gangster and he got a gangsters death.
@Eric W
Pac told me there was a heaven for a gangsta
deserved it too
Live by the sword, die by the sword.
Tony Provanzanos death bed confession. He said. Wanna know what really happened to Jimmy? He died.......
🤣 😂. Go check out some of Michael Franzese videos if you already havent already, he’s got a really good sit down series and he does some public appearances. One of the main questions he is always asked, “Who Killed Hoffa” 😂.
Tony Pro wasn't just another muppet baby to me.
Today the Teamsters union is weak and has been for along time.
I was a member of 507 Cleveland ohio ,nothing but sweetheart contracts after Hoffa was done away with. Teamsters are no more corrupt than our Government!
Look what's going on today. Its sickening...
The Pressers had tons of sweetheart contracts
I would just like to point out that I Heard You Paint Houses might as well have been written by L. Ron Hubbard for all of the fantasy that book contains. It was disappointing that the Big 3 finished their careers together on such a flat note.
It was still a great movie by great actors even though it’s not factual as to what really happened to Hoffa. Lots of great movies are fiction so it wasn’t a sad way for the big 3 as you call them to finish their mob movie careers…
@@ssherrierable : I found it far from a great movie but that’s just my opinion.
I thought it wuz pretty good especially the true characters I never had heard of buffalino he is a interesting guy & I liked how it wuz kind of a prequel 2 casino
The movie is based on the book. Whether the book is accurate or not is irrelevant.
It was a great film and to me it was clearly taking some movie liberties. Pacino was really great as Hoffa.
Chucky is doing a lot of studdering in his interview part here lol. Wonder why?
Jimmy Hoffa is like Donald Trump a hero at villain in that people feared Jimmy Hoffa but Jimmy Hoffa helped a lot of people I think Jimmy Hoffa is A man who amazed people cause he was hard working and getrdone type but could be a nice guy too
I was four yrs old when JH disappeared. So sad.
Don't cry for me Ike and Tina (singing)
me to 1971
I was 17 and 7-31 is my birthday..
Don't worry the ALMIGHTY will strengthen it all out people when he that is Worthy is crowned King of the jews returns to take his rightful place as the Almighty God and Father and until then let us all Look up. Selah Shalom 👍✝️✌️ CHEERS
Jesus was the king of jews and yall dont believe in him lol
Deuteronomy 32:4
Psalms 37:10,11
You know that the reason we haven't found him yet but he could've been grounded up for mulch and used for compost and it was used anywhere at any place
who is we i haven’t been lookin fo him
He was cremated within hours of being killed.
Yes, the man is still alive somewhere - because death does not end life, only changes location....
Hopefully, he accepted the Divine Mercy+💖 that is offered
to every human being -
but is willfully rejected by quite many.🙏
Uh buoy 🙄
@@chadinmich1 the older i get, the more hope she's right. at the end, my ma was convinced that she would reunite with every dog she'd ever had
@@waltwilliams7063 Well if Heaven is the wonderful place the Church teaches it is, then your mum may just be having a great reunion with all her canine companions.
6minutes of preambles get to it already. The new jersey boss killed him.
There must be something in the water in little town of Brazil, Indiana. That place has probably produced more influential people per capita than anywhere else, including:
Jimmy Hoffa
Orville Redenbacher, popcorn magnate
Henry Lee Summer, rock star
Judy Ledgerwood, abstract artist
Joe Dean, basketball broadcaster
John McKenzie, bible scholar and author
Stuart Randall, prolific film actor who was in The Ten Commandments and True Grit
John Dugan, movie actor who was in The Texas Chainsaw massacre
I met and knew one of Hoffa's best friends. The men who knew what happened took it to their graves and didn't dare to speak of what they knew.
The old saying that the FBI always gets their man who they had wiretapped and had under surveillance at times and they knew nothing saw nothing heard nothing and spoke nothing?
Of course not they knew better
@@catrinawilliams562 Of course. Omerta.
@@catrinawilliams562 was he the policeman fiddling with evidence
If you can, watch Killing Jimmy Hoffa by Al Profit. It's the best and most up to date documentary out there. It's brilliantly done. Enjoy!
Thanks!
Definitely an awesome Hoffa documentary
GREAT POST! I've watched it 5 times on Amazon Prime. The best one I've seen too.
He got put in a car boot,then the car was compacted and sent as scrap metal to Japan and he came back to America as a Toyota Camry
Thugs, goons, mobsters, and police were synonymous back then. And are now.
The real criminal is whoever gave Barbara(his daughter) that perm haircut
🤣 I can't stand it either!
I grew up in Utica NY and I'll never forget when the FBI dug up the city dump looking for Hoffa's body . We all laughed !!
Why Utica, NY ?
in new york no he in michigan
If he was that dumb not to take his s o n advice to have a bodyguard or to carry a gun he got what he deserved. You're that dumb to go into place by yourself, he should have took Nixon pardon, but no he was a loose cannon finally and the cannon blew up in his face
Hoffa did not like being stood up or people who were late. He was splintered into a thousand pieces and scattered to the wind!
@@Ruby-eh2cr Lol, its a quote from JFK to the C.I.A. Relax!!!!!!!
He was cremated, end of story.
It's to bad he was for the working man no matter what he did in his life
Hoffa daughter was very hard on the eyes.
That hairdo…
@@djquinn11that face
She was beautiful....Barbara Hoffa......you need some glasses,pal
Ol Jimmy just got too big for his britches & pissed off the wrong ppl. End of story. Interesting doc, though.
Hard work pay off when the nations vets love you ™®
Most people said you couldn't believe a word Chucky said.
Why would Chucky killed him?
@@vladimirthenailer2035 I don't believe he did, he was just a wise-guy wanna be. Hanging out with gangsters more than he should.
@@rickp3753, I understand.
He’s still alive living with Elvis and Billy the Kid in a three bedroom earth home.
My husband had a car there at the restaurant and it was stolen that day. Never found it.
Deeply chilling.
🎯
'I met Jimmy Hoffa only once '
That's all you need to know !
My mom cooked dinner for Hoffa and Jack Ruby. Tennessee fried chicken with several sides
I met Elvis the other day too
@@martinhanley9524 Elvis Merzlikins??
My grandma cooked and cleaned for Hoffa 😂😂
This is a great documentary!! 🤍
He was dissolved in acid or incinerated. His remains were spread all over, maybe in 100 places, mixed in cement, in steel, in sewage processing, maybe a little in pizza dough, pepperoni, or sauce, in various bodies of water…
Rubbed out by the mob, that’s what happened to him.
If it was the mob it was because the government had them do it.
The level of secrecy in this case shows that the government was involved.
And the very old retired police officer, remembers it like yesterday, and remembers who Jimmy Hoffa is, and never forgot, and it’s one of his drinking stories
"" YOU LAY DOWN WITH DOG"S,,, YOU GET UP WITH DOG"S,,,,,,,,,,FLEAS AND ALL !!!!!!!!
The short answer is that Jimmy Hoffa became a hub cap.
Keep in mind that should the IRS find some problem, YOU are responsible, not the accountants, lawyers and tax preparers YOU hire. My tax return is fairly straightforward but there is no WAY I prepare it myself. I have to depend on professionals, yet, if something is wrong, I am the one they go after.
He is either under one of the bridges off 275 or the pet cemetery in new hudson lyon township.
The dogs that sniffed the car know what happened😮
So, nixon cut a deal with....
It's what it is.
Jimmy Hoffa was a real leader for the Teamsters, his son, not so much.
Hoffa out lived,his worst enemie's.that would be,the "Kennedy's".
It's always good to outlive an enemy. Hoffa must have not outlived one
How do they know the identity of the 3 men he was going to meet with??
It would surprise most people of where he’s acually at
"Hoffa staging his own disappearance is totally out of character for Hoffa". So what? People will do things that are far out of character if they're doing them out of *NECESSITY* . Yes maybe it was in his nature to be totally stubborn and fight but if he was faced with an abyss he absolutely could have staged his own disappearance. I'm not sure how likely that is, but you can't rule it out on the basis of it being out of character. Don't underestimate the human obligation to survive.
i havent wanted to watch a single second of this, but youtube forces it down our throats because Local 4 news evidently is much more popular than every other channel
No one forced you to watch it not even RUclips. You chose to watch it.
No one knows or is unlikely to ever know because they put so many different stories out
Tony Jack was the Man! #1 Motor City Gangster a legend.
You idolize a gangster over a reveered labor leader?
When I was in the joint I worked in the infirmary, one of the old Gansters there was losing his mental faculty's and always talking about making hot dogs out of Hoffa and giving them to the street venders.
"Hoffadogs." Hmmm, I wonder if there is a market for them?...lol
Gods I hope not
The real plan was to let him out and rid him
Was he was talking about the "big event" (11/22/63) too freely and considered a liability, mentioning the wrong people to be mentioning?
All this b4 my time but i do recall the horror when my parents found out he was missing. They both immediately said to each other. He is dead. Both my parents were team hoffa.
JIMMY HOFFA, A GREAT AMERICAN. THE BEST FREIND WORKING PEOPLE EVER HAD. GOD BLESS YOU JIMMY HOFFA, SIR. I HOPE YOU HAVE YOUR HEAVEN. AND BY NOW IT'S UNIONIZED, IT'S TEAMSRERS.
Probably in Hell
