i would say to the hoffa kids that harper hoffer wrote frank a letter early on before i was even involved baking him to confess. james p. hoffer, current head of the teamsters as much as admitted that frank did it, that frank was the only one that could get close enough to do it. so i believe were frank alive, while he be very shameful for what he did, he d be very happy if the children finally can hear what the truth is. it s no question the truth heals. that is what concessions are all about. eric: author of a heard you paint houses. that is the book peer charlie comes good to see you as always. the show is riddled. it premieres with the launch of
the death of michael jackson? who is going to end up paying big or who he s not going to pay a cent? want to bring in paul, midwin back again. paul, let me start with you, what does the michael jackson family need out of these three children if they are going to put them through all of this, whether it s on a taped deposition or up there on the stand, what information do they need out of them to prove their case, which is aeg killed our beloved mike until. there s only one thing they re looking for and that is enormous sympathy. they ve lost their father. he was a wonderful father and he s been taken away by this big, bad corporation that was just in it for the money. that s a. there are some collateral things. i think they re going to show that even the kids saw that michael jackson was deteriorating while working for aeg, suggesting that aeg executives should have known this themselves if these kids could see that their father was deteriorating. sympathy is a very powerful thing
i mean imagine for his family, the hoffa kids, we can talk about that in a little bit, but this is a search, a hunt for the former teamster boss that has confounded the fbi for almost four decades now, ashleigh. just within the last hour, the bob foley, the fbi special agent in charge here, came out and told us, the media, who have been cammed out here since early monday morning no jimmy hoffa remains in the field behind me, none at all. they ve searched a plot about as big as an acre. they called this a diligent search over two plus days, saying they are absolutely certain that no human remains are in that field. why did they come here? they came here because an 85-year-old guy named tony zerilli, an alleged mob underboss here in detroit, admittedly a good friend of jimmy hoffa, tipped them off, went to the feds within the last year and said, he was taken here, jimmy hoffa, hit over the head with a shovel, buried alive. the fbi says no.
