Kevin+A

Kevin A. =﻿ Al Capone's 1920's Career= Al Capone was one of the most infamous criminals in US history. He moved to Chicago in 1923 to help run the South Side Chicago Outfit. He later took full charge over the syndicate and led one of the most sucessful criminal enterprises of all time. His biggest money maker was the sale of liquor that a prohibition era government had banned. He was also incredibly brutal, and he had many of his rivals killed for getting in his way. Despite this, he also used his vast wealth to help the people of Chicago through the earliest stages of the Great Depression. Truly, he is an incredibly interesting individual.
