Jimmy Hoffa

Teamsters president Jimmy Hoffa went missing 42 years ago. His disappearance has remained unsolved for decades, but it appears we may finally know what happened to him.

Fox News’ Eric Shawn says he knows what happened to Hoffa after he vanished into thin air. Shawn met with Frank Sheehan, who was president of a local Teamsters unit in Wilmington, Delaware in 1975. Sheehan told Shawn that he took Hoffa to a home in Bloomfield Hills, MI where he shot the Teamsters president in the back of the head.

Sheehan, who is also known as “The Irishman,” took the Fifth when he appeared before a Grand Jury regarding Hoffa’s disappearance just six weeks later.

Eric Shawn said Sheehan was rather detailed with what happened to Hoffa on July 30, 1975:

“He and others were ordered by the Mafia to kill Hoffa to prevent him from trying to run again for the presidency of the Teamsters union. Hoffa had resigned after serving prison time for jury tampering, attempted bribery and fraud convictions. Frank picked Hoffa up at the restaurant, accompanied by two others, to supposedly drive Hoffa to a mob meeting. When they walked into the empty house together, with Frank a step behind Hoffa, he raised his pistol at point-blank range and fired two fatal shots into his unsuspecting target, turned around and left. He said the body was then dragged down the hall by two awaiting accomplices, and that he was later told Hoffa was cremated at a mob-connected funeral home.”

You can hear Shawn explain his conversations with Sheehan and his visit to that Bloomfield Hills house in the video below.

Jimmy Hoffa’s disappearance is one of the great unsolved mysteries but this story appears to be a very plausible explanation for what happened.
