Jimmy Hoff was a teamster and a union leader in Detroit in the 1970s. He disappeared from a restaurant in 1975 and was never seen, alive or dead, again.

Most historians agree that his was killed and hidden by the mob. However the details of the theories still get debated, though mostly centered around the location of the body, which has never been found. It seems clear that Hoffa was lured away from the restaurant, possibly by his stepson, believed to be a patsy. His body was rumored to be incinerated or under a building, possibly even a stadium. The FBI has followed up on leads but have yet to turn anything up.

Of course, for those who don't buy the Mafia theory, the FBI are the prime suspects. One theory has it that they dumped him out of a plan over the great lakes.
