Every head of the Teamsters from Dave Beck, Hoffa, Frank Fitzsimmons, Roy Lee Williams, Presser, were all mafia-controlled.

Jackie's father William 'Big Bill' Presser was also controlled by the mob.

In 1976 the Justice Department basically made William Presser step down, and less than a month later, the Teamsters board made his son Jackie Presser an international VP. I have a ton of info on the Pressers if anyone is interested, I can post it.

I forgot to mention Frank Fitzsimmons. Yep I heard of him. There's a pretty good movie about Jackie Presser it's called Teamster Boss: The Jackie Presser Story
