2007-04-04 -Lurid Crime Tales-

The U.S. Justice Department paid $160,000 to the owners of a Milford Township horse farm to replace a barn the FBI removed last summer in a fruitless search for the remains of former Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa, records released under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act show.

The FBI paid another $65,000 to excavators, anthropologists and other contractors involved in the two-week search, the records released to The Detroit News show.

The $225,000 price tag for the search does not include salary or travel costs for what the FBI said at the time was 40 to 50 agents involved in the dig.

The search at the Hidden Dreams Farm brought a horde of media, curiosity-seekers and souvenir hawkers to nearby Milford last May. The cost is controversial because Hoffa disappeared nearly 32 years ago, on July 30, 1975, and it is unlikely anyone could still be successfully prosecuted for his apparent murder.

Fools! They're digging in the wrong place. As we all know, Jimmy Hoffa is buried in Senator Bedfellow's backyard pond, in a remote corner of Bloom County.

#3 Best argument ever that the FBI was a clueless bureaucracy wandering the US burning hard earned taxpayer dollars.

One really wishes that the Clinton's had not perverted everything in the federal gov.
