The Real Al Capone Was Far More Dangerous Than Scarface — He Generated $60 Million a Year

Scarface is a fictionalized composite. The real Al Capone generated an estimated $60 million annually at his peak from bootlegging, gambling, and prostitution, ran corruption that reached directly into Chicago's mayor's office, and ordered the St Valentine's Day Massacre in February 1929. This documentary covers the real Capone, what the film got wrong, what it left out entirely, and how a man who successfully avoided serious prosecution for over a decade was ultimately brought down not by law enforcement but by his own tax records. #AlCapone #Scarface #TrueCrimeDocumentary #MafiaHistory #GangsterStories #OrganizedCrime #ProhibitionEra #ValentinesDayMassacre #AlCaponeDocumentary #OutlawIcons
