Kenneth & Frances Tubman-My parents.
(L) 1951-Dad managed high-end hotels and restaurants from Washington DC, to Miami Beach, 1956-58, to Hilton Head in 1959,
then Detroit 1960-1974.
Ken knew all the high-profile figures of Detroit including members of the Unions and the Mafia. He even had his own personal run-in with the mob. His car was wired in 1968 in a run in with the mob.
That fear stayed with him till 1975.
(R) 1975-Dad & Mom were driving from their townhome in Bloomfield Twp. to see my sister in Detroit and happened by the Machus Red Fox at the precise time when a large maroon Mercury veered out and drove side by side with them for the next 5 miles...
...The first time the story was given to the FBI was 31 years later in 2006 when Frances (Mom) was 89 years old.
(Photo) I moved her out to Napa in 2007 and in 2009 I decided to contact the Hoffa family after we sat and watched the movie "HOFFA" and saw the lame ending.
(Barbara Ann said) The FBI never relayed the eyewitness account to the Hoffa children so I decided to video record Frances telling what they saw first hand.

The story is true-The eyewitnesses are real people who wanted to tell the truth about what they saw. They were fearful and didn't know how or even who to tell it to. . .
MY PASSION is not to sell books-
(but please get one if you wish).
My passion is to conquer fear with truth and get it out to an many as possible.
TRUTH over FEAR is the only justice available now the suspects are gone.
There is no closure.
YOUR PASSION should be to help get this eyewitness account to as many as you can. Like-Follow-Share it.
Together perhaps pressure will mount for the FBI to finally (50 years, man), release unredacted ALL FILES related to their investigation into the abduction and murder of James Riddle Hoffa.
