Unc le jailed again linked to teamster case
In Pontiac Michigan authorities pursued a fresh line in the Frank Kierdorf fire death investigation after a divorcee alleged foreknowledge by her ex husband, Leann Harrelson, head of Local 614. Herman Kierdorf, 68, ex convict and Teamsters agent, remained jailed on related arson inquiries as other suspects were questioned. A second woman, Mary Ann Thon, a 28 year old waitress and friend of Harrelson, was detained though police did not link her detention to Kierdorf’s death. A fire at Thon’s apartment also drew arson focus.
