DETROIT -- The attorney for the tipster who led the FBI to a field in Oakland Township, Mich., on Monday said the former mobster is relieved and hopeful there will be an end to mystery of Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance.
Anthony J. Zerilli, who recently published a manuscript about his claims that is sold online at HoffaFound.com, told agents that mobsters buried Hoffa alive on the property in 1975, after kidnapping him from a Bloomfield Township restaurant.
Zerilli's lawyer, David Chasnick, said Zerilli has been waiting at least eight months for the FBI to follow up on his tip. Zerilli was in jail when Hoffa disappeared, but is the son of a Detroit mafia boss.
