Al Capone

Yes, Alphonso Capone was Italian, born 1899 and died 1947.

No. He died in 1947.

Alphonse Gabriel "Al" Capone was a notorious American gangster who led a Prohibition-era crime syndicate in Chicago from the early 1920s to 1931. He was convicted of tax evasion in 1931 and sentenced to federal prison. He was one of the early inmates at the then-new United States Penitentiary, Alcatraz Island. He was released on parole in 1939.

In the later years of Capone's life, his physical and mental health deteriorated due to late-stage neurosyphilis, a disease he contracted in his youth. In 1946, his physician and a psychiatrist performed examinations and concluded that Capone then had the mental capacity of a 12-year-old child. He died at age 48 from cardiac arrest on January 25, 1947 after suffering a stroke.

rolls royce

He was a homicidal maniac, or he knew a bunch of them, other than that and being a criminal he was a pretty good guy.

Actually, Capone was a product of the ridiculous passing of the 18th Amendment. He was a petty crook but took full advantage of the circumstances presented him. Was he bad.....probably no more than Joseph Kennedy and others of that era. Capone also set up soup kitchens in many Chicago neighborhoods during the outset of the Great Depression.

He was in Alcatraz because he sold bootleg beer, sold drugs and had prostitutes everywhere on the streets, although his conviction was for tax evasion and failing to file tax returns.

In 1917, Al Capone was working as a bouncer for New York mob boss Frankie Yale in Coney Island. He got into an altercation with a New York mobster named Frank Galluccio because Capone kept staring at Galluccio's sister. The story goes that Capone told Galluciio's sister, "Honey, you got a nice a** and I mean that as a compliment, believe me." Galluccio overheard this and went crazy and demanded an apology which Capone refused, insisting it was all a joke. Galluccio became even madder and slashed Capone three times across the left side of his face. Later Capone did apologize after being reprimanded by the New York mob bosses. Evidently the scars bothered Capone. He would apply powder to his face and preferred to have photos taken on his right side.

He was caught for tax evasion, and he spent the last years of his life in prison. They didn't let him out until he was dying from a disease. Why wasn't he caught sooner? Probably because prosecuting somebody takes witnesses, and all the witnesses to his crimes were either very loyal to him or they were killed.

== == Alphonse Capone-- (1899-1947), popularly known as Al "Scarface" Capone, was an infamous American gangster in the "Roaring 20's" during Prohibition. Born in New York, Capone began his career in Brooklyn before moving to Chicago and becoming Chicago's most notorious crime figure. He was placed on the FBI's Most Wanted list after using bribery, murder, and extortion to enforce his criminal control. After a decade of crime, Capone's downfall occurred in 1931. Ironically, he was convicted of evading the income tax on his illegal earnings. He was sent to the notorious federal prison on the island of Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay, where he spent 8 years of his sentence. Paroled in 1939, Capone was chronically ill due the progression of syphillis. Most of his criminal syndicate had passed into other hands during his imprisonment. He died in Palm Island, Florida, in 1947 at the age of 48.

it was FBI g-man Elliot Ness

Al Capone's wealth was generated through illegal enterprises, such as gambling and prostitution, Most of it was from liquor sales as it was during the Prohibition and illegal.

What the sent him to prison for was income tax evasion and other violations of the Volstead Act.

It was actually Capones brother who quit school. Contrary to popular belief, Al Capone did not quit school but his brother Raffaele did. Al Capone was the first child in his family to graduate from high school. This according to many researched sites that include several well respected websites including Wikipedia.

tax evasion

Al Capone is best known for being Chicago's #1 gangster, and a popular user of the Tommy Gun, and he was also known for being involved in the Valentine's Day Massacre.

no menso its cicero,illinois

Atlanta State Prison, Alcatraz, etc. Please see link below.

Perhaps it was his brazen contempt for prohibition. It could have been the St. Valentines Day Massacre. It helped that he played the role of a modern day Robin Hood with his support for Soup Kitchens.

he never was. he made someone go up for election that then turned around and said that he was going to drive al out of town capone then promply pushed him down the steps of the town hall

Al Capone was born on January 17, 1899 and died on January 25, 1947. Al Capone would have been 48 years old at the time of death or 116 years old today.

Al Capone had business cards that listed him as a used furniture dealer. Another Capone oddity is that although he was nicknamed "Scarface," Capone was not the inspiration for the Al Pacino movie of the same name.
