Why they will NEVER find Hoffa's Body...

[benburch]

...I was told long ago by an organized crime member (he used to drink in our bar) exactly what happened to Hoffa.

He was made into dog food.

There was a mob-owned dog food plant not far from where he disappeared, or so he told me.

So, it is not surprising that the recent search failed to find him.

He's been digested.

1. I figured wood chipper, dog food, or poured concrete

In any case, let him stay where he is: composted, shit onto the police chief's front lawn, or under the floor of some vitally important municipal building.

He was a bad guy and doesn't deserve all this attention.

2. Just One Of A Million Tales That Every Person Was Privately Told By Some

mobster insider.

There are probably about a thousand of these "a mob insider told me the reallllll truth about hoffa" stories out there. Take em with a grain of salt.

[benburch]

3. Well, we knew him to be a real mobster...

He was the fellow we used to get slot machines from when we ran illegal gambling in the 40s...

And in Suburban Cook Country, IL, if you owned a bar, the mob told you who you bought your liquor from, and provided your cigarette machines and juke box. It was your fire insurance policy...

5. Everyone Else With Their Own Claims Got Them From Real Mobsters Too.

I've heard several of these in my lifetime, and always the strong claims of "I'm tellin you, this guy was a big time mobster, he knows what he's talking about". These stories always have the same form: A different twist on what happened to Hoffa and a source that was as geniune a mobster as you can get. But we may never know for certain what the real story is, since real stories in regards to Hoffa are dime a dozen, and any mobster that can show he's a real mobster likes to come off as knowing exactly what happened. That's what makes the whole mystery so intriguing though.

23. Chicago Heights by any chance?

Just curious. I used to live in the south burbs of Chicago.

24. Hanover Township.

Far NW.

4. Hoffa is under the 27 yard line at Giants Stadium

In 1988 he reached up and knocked the ball from Jerry Rice's hand as Rice raced towards the endzone without a Giants within 15 yards of him.

6. And how much did this futile search cost the taxpayers?

[dysfunctional press]

18. this particular one- a few hundred thousand...

they were running the costs down on cbs news tonite- 160,000 to replace a barn, and another 100k+ in labor.

but the whole life of the hoffa case has cost us many millions.

and it ain't dead yet- even tho' he, and 7 of the 9 suspects are.

7. Explains a lot! nt

:D

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

15. I always thought he was under Brendan Byrne arena. nt

[Lefty48197]

8. I heard he was thrown into a vat of molten zinc.

Maybe they double or even triple killed him?

[sweetheart]

21. First he froze in liquid nitrogen

and then broke up in to little pieces, but when they melted, he came back together
and kept chasing this lady and her young son until he was blasted in to the molten
zinc by a grenade launcher.

9. A former co-worker once theorised something similar

Hamburger.

Either way, it's a surefire way to leave no traces.

10. Hoffa Went Into Witness Protection

died in rural Idaho as a potato farmer

[havocmom]

12. Amusing

:rofl: at idea of Hoffa retiring to a farm. Short-term witness protection. He'd probably have killed himself after 6 months of that identity.

Heaven for some folks would be hell for others ;)

[Texasgal]

11. Why are we trying to find him anyway?

Why all the waste of taxpayers money?

[tocqueville]

13. Hoffa is alive... had facial surgery and is now VP... nt

[A Simple Game]

14. Hoffa may have been evil, but he wasn't that evil. n/t

[mr_hat]

16. It's true. He was made into Snausages.

[Jose Diablo]

17. Dog food? Naw, here's the real deal, honest

Hoffa left that resteraunt in Bloomfield Hills, it's on Woodward just south of Square Lake Rd. going to play a little poker at this spot on Stevenson Highway in Hazeltucky. He was wacked with a .22 in the head (the .22 is favored because it just sort of bounces around in the head and doesn't make a mess, but scrambles-up the brain), then taken to a construction site of I 696 and buried at the bottom of the future footings for the Dequinder bridge over I 696. The next day the concrete was poured for the footings and there he lays today, counting the trucks roll by.

I heard this from a friend whose cousin's, next door neighbor's brother inlaw that's a bartender. He heard in from a very reliable source in the bar he used to work at.

Honest, it's true.


Edit: Sigh, nobody believes me.

[Poiuyt]

19. I believe that you believe it

:hi:

Just kidding. Who knows what happened to him. There have been so many rumors. All I know is that the mob did a really good job of disposing of the body.

[guinivere]

20. So he ended up being dog poop. Kind of fitting, no? nt

[benburch]

22. Dog poop, worm poop... We all wind up being poop. nt

25. That or he and Elvis shared a trailer just outside of Branson, MS

At least that's what I saw in one of those little newspapers at the supermarket...

I kid of course. We all know that Elvis is dead. He had a heart attack when he found out his daughter married Michael Jackson.
