Doesn't matter who pulled the trigger
Hoffa was murdered by his own ego.
shareI fail to see how. Hoffa was right. Provenzano was so clearly disrespectful and abusive to him. And the fact the higher ups simply demanded demanded that he dance like a puppet and take it practically made him the victim, as loud mouthed and eccentric as he was.
shareI believe that the original poster is alluding to Jimmy Hoffa being convinced that he was untouchable, even as far as organized crime goes, since he stated that nobody "would dare" put a hit on him, regardless of the advice and warnings that he received from both Frank and Russell.
That mindset coupled with the fact that he refused to back down is what, ultimately, sealed his fate.
Whether Hoffa was right or wrong is irrelevant.
