Saint Valentine's Day Massacre

People think that because chief gangster Al Capone sought to consolidate control by eliminating his rivals in the illegal trades of bootlegging, gambling and prostitution. From 1924 to 1930, the city of Chicago gained a widespread reputation for lawlessness and violence. One February evening in North Chicago, seven well-dressed men were found riddled with bullets inside the S.M.C Cartage Co. garage. They had been lined up against a wall, with their backs to their executioners and shot to death. These people were working for "Bugs" Moran. During the height of prohibition and the never-ending competition between gangster rivals Al "Scarface" Capone and George "Bugs" Moran, bloody warfare was nothing new to the authorities of Chicago. Nobody could think someone from some other state could be involved. Al was never charged or proven mainly because he was not there. There is another theory nobody was afraid to talk about at that time. The theory holds that Enoch Lewis "Nucky" Johnson from New Jersey was involved in the planning of the massacre.

The leading organized crime person in 1929, was Al Capone who had come to Chicago to form a powerful "gang". He has been designated as the chief conspirator in the massacre. For his alibi, Capone was on vacation the day of the infamous St. Valentine's massacre.

In some quarters, Capone was sort of a folk hero as he set up soup kitchens in Chicago during the depression. Capone eventually ended up in prison for income tax fraud.
