The FBI says it found no evidence of missing Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa during a search of land under a New Jersey bridge.
“I'm not thrilled with the result... My impression today was them breaking the bad news to me: Thanks for the tip but this is over. That’s my interpretation," Moldea told The Associated Press.
The FBI reached out to Moldea last year after he published a detailed account from Frank Cappola, who was a teenager in the 1970s, when he worked at the old PJP Landfill near the bridge. Cappola said his father, Paul Cappola, who also worked at the landfill, explained how Hoffa’s body was delivered there in 1975, placed in a steel drum and buried with other barrels, bricks and dirt.
Paul Cappola, worried that police might be watching, dug a hole on New Jersey state property, about 100 yards from the landfill, and subsequently moved the unmarked barrel there, according to Moldea.
