I'm from Detroit. Tony Zerilli was a well known mobster in the Detroit area, and close to the Giacolones (Tony and Vito), who likely were behind the murder. This one just may amount to something.

I am now an old woman ... it is time to let this go.

I thought someone from "Tony Jack's" crew came forward ~ a decade ago ... ? It didn't amount to anything

How does that make you an old woman? Sounds to me like you're in your prime...

For years, we understood Jimmy Hoffa was buried out in the parking lot of the Giants Stadium, and now, the lucky guy he was, reposes on the fifty yard line in the new park.

where they spell out "GIANTS" in the endzone for each game. As a season ticket holder who sat right behind the "S" in section 123 row 18 of the old stadium, I am proud to be a Charter Member of the Jimmy Hoffa Under the S Fan Club (a fellow ticket holder was a printer who printed up membership cards for the whole section).

Now that the old Giants Stadium has been torn down and replaced by MetLife Stadium (just a few feet away), we think Jimmy is now under the Bud Lite beer pumps adjacent to the Bud Lite gate of the new stadium.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoffa,_James_Riddle

Hoffa was scheduled to testify before a United States Senate committee, the Church Committee, which was probing organized crime, during the summer of 1975. Other figures connnected with organized crime were also slated to testify; these included John Roselli and Sam Giancana. Roselli had testified and was recalled; both he and Giancana were assassinated before they could (re)appear before the Committee. The 2009 book Legacy of Secrecy asserted that both were murdered, on the orders of mobsters Carlos Marcello and Santo Trafficante, to cover up their roles in the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy.[21]
