Hoffa Freedom Hopes Rise After Wiretap Perjury Acquittal
Miami lawyers see a potential new avenue for James Hoffa’s freedom after Harold Jenkins, a self described wiretap expert, was acquitted of perjury in Chicago on testimony about tapping Hoffa's phone for the federal government. Jenkins testified Hoffa’s conversations from Eden Roc Hotel were recorded for a $75 daily fee. Jenkins and his employer seek rewards exceeding $200,000 for proving Hoffa’s fines were tapped, while Hoffa faces multiple sentences.
