Al Capone was indicted in 1931 for income tax evasion and violations of the Volstead Act. The violations of the Volstead Act were later dropped but he was sent, nevertheless, to Atlanta U.S. Penitentiary in May of 1932 and was later on sent to Lincoln Heights Jail temporarily before being sent to Alcatraz for the remainder of his sentence.

When Alcatraz first became a federal prison in 1934, wardens from all over the country were permitted to send their most incorrigible inmates to Alcatraz. Al Capone was amongst these inmates. Alcatraz began accepting inmates during August of 1934, so Al Capone was probably transferred to Alcatraz around that time.
