Hoffa Trial Goes Back To Jury Probe Of Bribe Plots
A Jan 17 start led Judge Frank Gray Jr. to issue bench warrants for seven men as a grand jury investigates Hoffa related bribery attempts. The panel, under Judge Miller, seeks motives to sway jurors including bids of 10000 to juror Tippens via Hoffa associates, and similar offers to others tied to jurors Gratia Fields and Mrs Paschal.
