There are countless theories of Hoffa's death, but most, if not all, deal with the mafia. The main theory is Hoffa went to a meeting with 2 mobsters, yet none showed except Jimmy. He was then killed by the mafia that day. All the main suspects that the FBI acclaimed have to do something related to the mob. Either a capo,family,boss, etc. The reason being the mafia is the

main suspect is because they though once Hoffa became president again after his sentence, he would try to “get back” at them. Plus, the mafia already had a great connection with the current president of the Teamsters at the time. Both conspiracies of where his body is at and how he died, it is almost certain that the mafia had a major key in Hoffa's Death.
The mafia is all around the US, but most importantly it was all around Hoffa in Detroit.
Knowing that this Labor Union had such an impact on workers, the mafia were going to try their best to get into what this program does.

The remains are then dumped somewhere that is impossible to search, or Hoffa’s corpse was so thoroughly annihilated that dumping was not necessary.

But the strange thing was that, both Provenzano and Giacalone weren’t even in Detroit. The most plausible theory is that Frank Sheeran, Hoffa’s best friend and also escort shot Hoffa in the house in north Detroit he was taken to. I think this theory is very reasonable because it has a good motive and evidence. When
“ In the 1964 election, there was thought that Kennedy might replace Johnson as Vice President. ”“Johnson’s political career was being threatened by a corruption scandal.” The U.S. Policy on Cuba was considered not tough enough by most anti-Castro Cubans. Because Kennedy did not follow through on the invasion of Cuba at the Bay of the Pigs they think this is why this happened. The FBI wiretraps and informers proved senior mafia people spoke of their dislike toward the Kennedy brothers, who had forced the FBI and other agencies to take action against mobsters. The House Select Committee on Assassinations had info on the theory that the mafia killed JFK.

One conspiracy suggest that the CIA killed Kennedy because they were angry about the Bay of Pigs (Mirror.co.uk). Others suggest the mob did it (Cnn.com).
One other suspect died before he could be charged. The men that were charged were named Thomas Edwin Blanton Jr.; Robert Edward Chambliss, and Bobby Frank Cherry.

Who Killed President John F. Kennedy Out of ¨Oswald was the lone assassin, Oswald was a part of a larger conspiracy, and Oswald was completely innocent,¨ Oswald being part of a larger conspiracy is the most reasonable answer because Oswald was somehow in the same building that the shots came from, and he did not hear anything at all. He should have heard something if he was in the same building. A gun shot is pretty loud and the sound HAD to have made it down 4 floors.
The mafia was the most powerful criminal organization in the world. The reason for this belief was that Jack Ruby, the man who shot Oswald, had ties with the mafia. One of the reasons that the mafia could have had reason to murder the president was that his brother, Robert Kennedy, who was also the attorney general, had been acting quite aggressively against some of the mafia bosses. Robert also led a strong campaign against the mafia. Many believe that the mafia saw that getting rid of Kennedy would also get rid of his brother, since there would have to be a new administration after his death, and Robert would have to be replaced.
