  3. Al Capone Trial The Al Capone trial is popular because Capone wasn’t convicted for his numerous crimes of racketeering or bootlegging, but simply for not paying his income tax. The prosecution claimed that Capone had people within his business begin paying off jurors in order to keep Capone one the streets with his gambling ‘ring’ and other crimes to grow his bootlegging business. Upon entering the courtroom, the prosecution listed the fact that Capone hadn’t paid his taxes for many years and had been breaking the federal law for a while. The fact of the matter was that no matter how Capone was making his money, that you still have to pay your taxes. The defense the other hand, only had one way to defend Capone which was the fact that he had lost countless amounts of money due to his gambling addiction during those times which would have met if not surpassed his debt to the federal government. Capone though was ultimately found guilty on the charges of tax evasion and was sentenced to prison. Capone though only served eight years until he was released. APA Citation- Linder, D. (n.d.).
