Al Capone wasn’t just a gangster—he was the king of organized crime. During Prohibition, he built a billion-dollar empire fueled by bootlegging, gambling, extortion, and bribery, making over $100 million a year ($1.6 billion today).
He ran Chicago like a Fortune 500 company, laundering money through fake businesses, offshore accounts, and payroll fraud—keeping him untouchable for nearly a decade. The FBI couldn’t convict him for murder, bootlegging, or racketeering, but in the end, it wasn’t bullets that took him down… it was a tax form.
