The story behind the piece
Bullets and bribes never stopped Al Capone. Accountants did. On October 17, 1931, a federal jury in Chicago found him guilty of income tax evasion, and a week later he was sentenced to 11 years in prison.
The most famous gangster in America was brought down by his own books. This commemorative design marks the day the government finally made a charge stick.
