Al Capone's Bloody Business — A Chicago Stories Documentary
During the Prohibition-era 1920s, a young man named Al Capone succeeded his mentor, Johnny Torrio, to run the Chicago Outfit. An Italian-American crime syndicate first established by “Big Jim” Colosimo at the turn of the century, the Outfit amassed an estimated $100 million in revenue – more than $1.5 billion today – through its nearly 200 brothels, illegal alcohol production and sales, gambling, and racketeering.
