Alphonse Capone was a mobster known for his gang activites in the 1920's. Al mostley smugled liquor(bootlegging) into Chicago during the 1920's.
At age 14 Al dropped out of school after being expelled for hitting a teacher. He joined the Brooklyn Ripers, and later a very powerful gang, Five Points Gang. Al moved to Chicago because he was recruited by a friend, and also a mobster, Johnny Torrio. After Johnny was injured in a attach by a gang in Chicago, he handed his bootlegging business to Al. One of the mostpopular crime Al was involved with was the Valentines Day Masssarce.Which was when a couple of Al's gang member dressed up like police, and shot 7 other gang members during a liquor smuggling. The police had no way of proving Al did it, so he was charged for tax avasion.
I think it was a really clever way, how they finally caught him doing something illegal, but he should have been put in jail way befor that.
