The Mystery of Jimmy Hoffa

James R. Hoffa, former President of the Teamsters Union, was last seen in late July 1975 outside of a Detroit restaurant. He disappeared without a trace, giving rise to several theories as to what happened to him and where his body was hidden. In September 2012, authorities dug up the driveway of a Roseville, Mich., home in hopes of finding Hoffa's body. Police had received a tip from a man who said he'd seen a body being buried there approximately 35 years ago and thought it may have been Hoffa. The search revealed no human remains.
