     Have you ever heard of Al Capone? Chances are you have because he was one of the most famous gangsters in American history. Chicago was his playground where he ran bootlegging and prostitution. Al Capone was tried for many things including: murders, prostitution, drugs, liquor, and many more things, but was found not guilty every time. Police finally aressted him for tax evasion in Florida. Prisons weren’t secure enough for this gangster, so he was sent to the most secure prison in America, Alcatraz.Before this though he was believed to send “goons” to kill rival gangs members, this was called St.Valentines Day Massacre. Even though they couldn’t prove it, they knew it.
