It's one of the most enduring mysteries in modern American life, and an answer may yet be unearthed. Jimmy Hoffa, the American labor union leader, disappeared 38 years ago and no one knows where he ended up. Now, investigators are digging up a field in Michigan hoping to solve the decades-old mystery. The field is near land once owned by mobsters. Reputed mobster Tony Zerilli, 85, said earlier this year that Hoffa was buried in a lot in Oakland Township, the very same area investigators are currently searching, but a body has yet to be recovered.
