On January 25, 1947, the famous Chicago underworld leader Capone died of a stroke
On this day, 78 years ago, January 25, 1947 (January 4, 1947, the famous Chicago underworld leader Capone died of a stroke. Capone is dead, and the police can breathe a sigh of relief. Al Capone gangster godfather--King of Chicago: Time in power: From 1925 to 1931, the black hand gang members of the Capone era hid submachine guns under their windbreakers and used grenades to open the way during fires. Their tough and cruel style made other gangs shudder. Capone killed no less than a hundred people with his own hands and narrowly avoided ambushes at least a hundred times. Capone left three major legacies to the Mafia: heavy machine guns are better than submachine guns; paying taxes to the federal government on time; And wearing a condom during sex. When some black hands came to Chicago to develop, the second largest city in the United States quickly overtook New Orleans as the city with the highest crime rate in the United States. Al Capone is a symbol of the Mafia's "mob era". Capone is not Sicilian; he was born in Naples, Italy. But when Capone killed 322 opponents in a row in 10 months, he was promoted to become the first non-Sicilian mafia godfather. During the 1928 presidential election, Chicago criminal police captain Roth approached Capone and asked him not to interfere in the presidential campaign. Capone agreed, and in return, the police promised to try not to harass Capone and his men over trivial matters such as murder. However, Capone made a mistake: Capone made a mistake: he could kill and set fire, but he should pay taxes promptly and on time. Paying protection fees to the federal government is the only way citizens can exchange for freedom outside of prison, and the federal tax department has more experience in this regard than the mafia. A federal tax detective stumbled upon a casino controlled by Capone concealing income. So he followed the clues and found out Capone, and in 1931 he sent Capone and 69 other black gang members to court. In theory, they face 25,000 years in prison. Capone offered a $5 million refund in taxes, which was agreed by the Chicago authorities, but was denied by a federal judge. Capone's men visited the twelve jurors with guns and wads of banknotes, but the upright judge appointed new jurors the day before the trial began. In the end, Capone was sentenced to 11 years in prison for concealing personal income. Capone still maintained the dignity of the king in prison, and women became his only hobby of despondency. Unfortunately, due to safety problems, he contracted non-healing syphilis and completely became a eunuch. In 1939, Capone, who was released due to illness, came to Florida with $5 million and spent the last eight years of his life in a hospital bed. Capone died on January 25, 1947, and the police could relax.
