THE FINAL CHAPTER, THEY DISAPPEARED HIM:
TIMELINES.
WITNESSES.
PHYSICAL EVIDENCE.
On the cusp of retaking the presidency of the largest and most powerful union in the continent, and with an angry rank and file sweeping him forward, Jimmy Hoffa was abducted and murdered. The shipping company owners, white house staffers and collaborationist teamster regional chieftains could rest easy and look forward to a new and lucrative era where the highways are free of barricades and loads are plodded over by immiserated low-wage drivers. So why is the Hoffa abduction and murder thought of as a gangster story, rather than one of labor violence, a story used to put a note of mystery into the memoirs of dying mafia men?
In this 2-part final chapter to our Hoffa and the Teamsters saga we talk about the final hours of Jimmy Hoffa's life and the competing alibis given by his abductors. Along the way we discuss mid-70s luxury sedans, DNA analysis, and the maximum size of a Coho salmon.
