Robert "Bobby" Ciaro (died 30 July 1975) was a union organizer for the Teamsters. Ciaro was Jimmy Hoffa's right-hand man, and he was deeply involved with union corruption; Ciaro and Hoffa were both murdered at the roadside diner in Bloomfield Township, Michigan in July 1975.
DeVito himself plays Jimmy’s fictional lieutenant Bobby Ciaro, recruited from a loading dock in 1935 and inseparable from his boss ever since. Hoffa was released a year after Oliver Stone’s JFK and within weeks of Spike Lee’s Malcolm X , a trio of “would-be interventions” into the cultural chat, per Sight & Sound at the time.
