Al Capone was a prominent member of the Italian-American mafia in the 1920s and 1930s. He rose to power as the leader of the Chicago Outfit, one of the most infamous criminal organizations in American history. Capone was known for his ruthless tactics and his ability to bribe law enforcement officials, which allowed him to avoid prosecution for many of his crimes. He is most commonly associated with the illegal sale of alcohol during Prohibition and with the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, in which seven members of a rival gang were murdered. Al Capone was tried and convicted for several crimes, including tax evasion. He was tried in federal court in Chicago in 1931 and was sentenced to 11 years in prison. However, he was not tried for any of the violent crimes that he is most commonly associated with, such as murder or racketeering, as there was not enough evidence to convict him on those charges. He was sentenced to 11 years in prison and was initially sent to the United States Penitentiary in Atlanta. He was later transferred to the Federal Correctional Institution in Alcatraz, where he remained until 1939, when he was released due to deteriorating health. He died a few years later in 1947 at the age of 48.
