Union Cash Used for Hoffa Defense, Labor Says
The Labor Department reports Teamsters President James R Hoffa withdrew about $570,396 from union funds to pay for three criminal trials. Attorney Seymour Spelman argues the total may approach $1 million since 1959, with as much as $3 million across Hoffa and 47 other officials over five years. Hoffa halted use of union money for legal troubles after a period, while critics call it illegal.
