The encounter took place last week, the British tabloid said — only a month after McCartney was photographed embracing Nancy Shevell, a New Jersey trucking heiress and member of New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority board.
SIR Paul McCartney’s new love was once accused of having ties to the MAFIA through her family.
American beauty Nancy Shevell – seen kissing Macca on a string of intimate dates – has made millions as vice-president of her family’s trucking company.
But the firm, New England Motor Freight, was accused by the US government of making Mob pay-offs and linked to one of America’s most feared Mafia bosses.
According to US reports the FBI filed a lawsuit in 1988 against Nancy’s mega-rich dad Myron “Mike” Shevell, accusing him of a “corrupt relationship” with reputed Mob killer and extortionist Tony Provenzano.
A report by the US labour department claimed Vincent Gigante, of the feared Genovese crime family, was involved in a conspiracy with Mr Shevell’s company to take control of a Teamsters Union branch.
It was alleged Mr Shevell made pay-offs to the Mob in return for a “sweetheart” deal in which the company was allowed to operate outside union rules.
I hope that Puff Driver will finally admit that what happened to him at NEMF was not the local unions fault... That it was the result of the company making pay-offs to the mafia....Don't forget that "the reputed Mob killer and extortionist" Tony Pro's brother worked for Shevell as a TM at Eastern.
There is no such thing as union corruption, it's a myth.
Shevell made the deal all by himself. He decertified the teamsters without an elction all by himself. No union invol;vement.
Remember, we paid Local 560 for "job security" we did not pay NEMF for protection.
And Tony Pro's lunch date with Jimmy Hoffa went well, except for the murder...
Geez....will we have to relive the crap from 35 years ago forever?
can't we block these two from the nemf board. they (2631 and puff driver) just can't move on. when baby birds don't fly out of the nest, they're pushed. time to push and lock these two from the nemf nest. :smilie_132:
I can move on, but I do have the right to post a reply to Puff Driver's incessant Teamsters bashing. I didn't start this thread & I certainly don't have a problem with who the owner dates.
If we are posting by the rules & you can't dispute the facts of the posts, then why don't you just ignore them?
Thats fine with me. But I am still going to respond to Teamster bashing on any site that I find it. If someone continues to rehash the same old lies about the Teamsters, then I will respond to them as a current discussion, old news or not. I'm not taking it anywhere, its on a NEMF board because it was posted by a former NEMF driver & according to him it concerns NEMF & the Teamsters, whether anyone likes it or not. If they leave Local 560 & the Teamsters union out of it, then I'll stay out of it.....And just for the record, everything that I have posted are either proven facts or my opinions based on the truth the way I remember it. You are welcome to dispute anything that I post or you can just ignore it.i'm just saying take it somewhere else or get over it. this company hasn't been a teamsters company for a long time. it's not a current discussion. it's old news, that has nothing to do with nemf today.

But as long as the moderators allow Teamster bashing lies posted on this non Teamster site, then I am going to try & rebutt them.
Puff Driver's claims are old news but this thread & this article Nancy Shevell's Mafia Connections - Entertainment on The Huffington Post are not old news

it's a new report of old news. if i told you that on 4/9/1865 the Civil war ended, would you consider that new or old news.
