| A search of the farm back in
the 1970's also produced no clues. No
trace of Hoffa has ever been found, and no one has ever been
charged in the case. |
|
The farm is situated not
far from the Machus Red Fox Restaurant, where the former Teamsters chief vanished in 1975. The farm belonged to Rolland
McMaster, a
former Teamster official, who is still alive at age 93. McMaster's
lawyer says his client was out of state when Hoffa vanished. |
| If Hoffa's body is ever found by the FBI, criminal charges are
unlikely. The statute of limitations has since expired on
most possible federal charges, and most of the major suspects in
Hoffa's disappearance have been dead for years. |
| The new search is based on information
from Donovan Wells, a former Hoffa associate now serving a
federal prison term for marijuana trafficking. Wells reportedly
said he was staying on the farm in Milford when Hoffa's body,
wrapped in a carpet, was buried there. |
| Among those suspected of
involvement were Detroit mob boss Anthony Giacalone, now dead,
and Anthony Provenzano, president of Teamsters Local 560 in New
Jersey, who died in federal prison where he was serving a life
sentence. |
