Hoffa indicted again in Chicago and pension fund fraud
A federal grand jury in Chicago indicted James R. Hoffa and seven others on 28 counts alleging they fraudulently obtained 20 million dollars in loans from the Central States pension fund and diverted over a million for personal use. The case links to hotels, motels, shopping centers and projects across Florida and other states, with dismissal of a related Florida Sun Valley case to couple it with Chicago action. The Lorain-Elyria area lands off the substantial unemployment list, moving to moderate unemployment as 3 to 5.9 percent jobless.
