Everything That Happened After Al Capone Went To Prison

The Chicago Outfit was founded during the 1910s, but it became notorious under the leadership of Al Capone. When crime boss Johnny Torrio invited Capone to Chicago from New York in 1920, it set the foundation for Capone's rise to the top. Capone, leader of the Outfit from 1925 to 1931, was involved in underground activities long before taking over the group. Even after he went to prison in 1931, Capone may have had some knowledge of what the Outfit was up to. However, his mental deterioration from syphilis was so severe that the former gangster was released from prison early as a result. Between 1939 and 1947, Al Capone lived out his days in Florida. The void left in the Chicago Outfit by Capone's absence was long ago filled, but when Capone passed away on January 25, 1947, he left behind one son, a wife, a mother, and numerous siblings. So, what happened to the Chicago Outfit? Who took over? And what happened to Al Capone's son and other family members?
