Alphonse Gabriel Capone (/kəˈpoʊn/; January 17, 1899 - January 25, 1947), sometimes known by the nickname "Scarface", was an American gangster and businessman who attained notoriety during the Prohibition era as the co-founder and boss of the Chicago Outfit. His seven-year reign as a crime boss ended when he went to prison at the age of 33.
Capone was born in New York City in 1899 to Italian immigrant parents. He joined the Five Points Gang as a teenager and became a bouncer in organized crime premises such as brothels. In his early twenties, he moved to Chicago and became a bodyguard and trusted factotum for Johnny Torrio, head of a criminal syndicate that illegally supplied alcohol-the forerunner of the Outfit-and was politically protected through the Unione Siciliana. A conflict with the North Side Gang was instrumental in Capone's rise and fall. Torrio went into retirement after North Side gunmen almost killed him, handing control to Capone. Capone expanded the bootlegging business through increasingly violent means, but his mutually profitable relationships with mayor William Hale Thompson and the city's police meant he seemed safe from law enforcement.
Capone apparently reveled in attention, such as the cheers from spectators when he appeared at ball games. He made donations to various charities and was viewed by many as a "modern-day Robin Hood". However, the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre, in which seven gang rivals were murdered in broad daylight, damaged the public image of Chicago and Capone, leading influential citizens to demand government action and newspapers to dub Capone "Public Enemy No.1".
The federal authorities became intent on jailing Capone and charged him with 22 counts of tax evasion. He was convicted of five counts in 1931. During a highly publicized case, the judge admitted as evidence Capone's admissions of his income and unpaid taxes, made during prior (and ultimately abortive) negotiations to pay the government taxes he owed. He was convicted and sentenced to 11 years in federal prison. After conviction, he replaced his defense team with experts in tax law, and his grounds for appeal were strengthened by a Supreme Court ruling, but his appeal ultimately failed. Capone showed signs of neurosyphilis early in his sentence and became increasingly debilitated before being released after almost eight years of incarceration. On January 25, 1947, he died of cardiac arrest after a stroke.
He spent the last years of his life at his mansion in Palm Island, Florida, spending time with his wife and grandchildren. On January 21, 1947, Capone had a stroke. He regained consciousness and started to improve, but contracted bronchopneumonia. He suffered a cardiac arrest on January 22, and on January 25, surrounded by his family in his home, Capone died after his heart failed as a result of apoplexy. His body was transported back to Chicago a week later and a private funeral was held. He was originally buried at Mount Olivet Cemetery in Chicago. In 1950, Capone's remains, along with those of his father, Gabriele, and brother, Frank, were moved to Mount Carmel Cemetery in Hillside, Illinois.
Julia Buccola became more famous in death than she ever did in life. Her story is both sad & haunting. May she RIP.
Thank you, Scott!
Hi Scott. There is a saying (real, no kiddin) that when a woman dies after giving birth or she delivers a stillborn baby, she dies as a Saint. This is so true. I heard it when I was 9 years old. I still remember those comments way back from my mom’s friend’s. If you look at it…it doe’s make sense. Thank you 🙏🏽 Scott for another one of your interesting stories. We appreciate you.
Al capon is the reason why we have sell by dates on milk. His niece got sick from spoiled milk and it made him mad. So thanks to Al for that.
That's so interesting!
Interesting.
@Max Powers oh Lord I got a visual of milking rats lol sick
A lot of people don't know that 🤣🤣 man did not play bout his fam
Really? Wow! That's interesting. So he did something good yah!
Very nice of Scott to promote and take that kid under his wing. Very selfless.
Scott,
Prior to the mid-to-late 80's, the funeral profession used a higher % of formaldehyde in the embalming fluid. In some cases, even more was added, if the body needed to be preserved (above ground) for a longer period of time. We called it a "hot dose". We use a more, environmentally, friendly fluid, today. That's another story for another day.
Its possible that this is why she was so well preserved. In my 36 years in the profession, I've witnessed (6) exhumed bodies...most were still, well preserved and recognizable. By the way, not to make issue, but you said "marble" concerning the monuments. 80% of those in the modern cemeteries are granite...some bronze in "memorial type gardens". If it is marble, it will have a whitish/gray appearance and, generally, rough in texture. Most granite monument/markers are polished (glass like finish). Interesting though...the statue of this young woman is marble...the rest is granite. The porcelain pics have held up well, considering the number of years they've been there.
Great Vlog...as usual.
Keep Up The Fantastic Work, Sir!👏
Fascinating! 👏👋👏👋Best comment award for you!
not that I'm looking forward to my death or anything but I'm going to be using the same process that was used on Rosalia Lombardo. I've never enjoyed the idea of rotting away to nothing but bones in a box.
Best comment ever!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@wtconroe879 yea
You know your stuff J.J. 👍
Now that was a very interesting video about Julia Buccola. I like stories like that. Nice cemetery, I never thought in a million years that I would ever have hear myself say that. Thanks Scott, you're the greatest!😊
Great Video,Scott.All the years I lived in Chicago,never visited Capones grave.My high school history teacher said Capone actually might be in an unmarked grave,to discourage grave robbing.
What an interesting video Scott. Capone and where he is actually buried BUT the grave of that young lady in her wedding dress was really an interesting story. Thanks so much for always putting out great videos and bringing us with you. Continued safe travels,,,,,,,peace.....out!!😄😉
Brandon standing there looking like sidekick Robin in the original Batman. 😄
May she be resting for eternity in Heaven, that's amazing to see her in her wedding dress, that wasn't cheap I'm sure, the photo's of her with the dress on and in the casket was just fabulous and to be able to see it clearly after all those years, persevered just like she was... thank you for the video... amazing to say the least..hugs from wisconsin
Great video!!! Thank you for including the Julia’s grave!!! Sad but very thoughtful of you to include her!
I lived in that area for many years. When ever I drove by the back of cemetary I would look over at Julia's grave. It is legendary haunted, but I never saw anything unusual. Good video guys.
Never knew he was buried elsewhere first. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful clean cemetery. Like you said most people probably don't know who is buried in there. I believe eyes are the window to the soul and I was always struck by the craziness in Capone's eyes which proved prophetic of his death. Julia's story was interesting not sure if I believe her skin was supple 6 yrs after not eating or drinking after death.
14:03 The Julia Buccola Petta grave and story is really interesting and mysterious! That needs a new stand alone Vlog with more info. Great work Scott!
I agree with you
Both stories are great ones . Al Capone is a great historical story . Julia's story is a touching story. I've been to her grave once. Sad story but now resting in peace . Great video Scott. Hope you were able to get to Bachelors Grove cemetery as well .
I live near belleville Michigan. Belleville was used to bury alot of Chicago gangsters bodies. Supposedly one of al,s mistress is buried in a older cemetery. But being the relationship he had with detroit's purple gang it could be alot of secrets buried out here.
Yeah buddy...can't help it...I'm morbid...LOL...Thanks for sharing this video Scott....another job excellently well done....and I'm gangster happy....much love to ya...oh haven't told you....this is KJ Jones...I had to change my name but I left the profile picture hoping everyone would know it was me....again, much love to ya...and thank you to Brandon as well for the work he put in on this too....much love to you Brandon...:)
Thank you Scott for tour of Al Capone’s cemetery graves! Rest in Eternal Peace Al Capone! 🌺
I love Mt Carmel! It’s absolutely stunning! Not only are the Capones there but the Genna family, Sam Giancana and Antonio Lombardo are there as well. Great video as always, Scott xo
Thank you once againScott for the up date on Al Capone. Had no idea the history on his graves! Your so good about keeping us all up to date. On the Julia I’m just not sure about her being buried alive! What is suffocate in a few minutes after having that Castaic closed? I guess we will never know
Hello there SCOTT Shannon here Thank you so very much for the video 🙋
Scott, you've been killing the soundtracks lately, no pun intended.
Great video!
It’s Your Bud BuzzChuck. Keep Up The Great Work! 😎✌️
Have you ever done a video about Soupy Sales? I met Soupy about 1983 at WNEW channel 5 in New York. He came right up to me and started talking like we had known each other for years. That has left a lifelong impression on me. I watched him on tv in the 60's. I can't say enough about what a nice man he was.
My family is buried at Mt. Carmel and Queen of Heaven. Always stop by Capones grave when I'm there! Another great video Scott!
Thanks Scott. I thought you were going to also show us Denis Farina's grave. One of my favorite actors.
I saw him once back in the early 90s , what a good looking man, beautiful eyes , I believe they were hazel or grey
It is fascinating that two of Capone's North Side enemies are located not far away in the same cemetery; Dean O'Bannon and Hymie Weiss. Interesting video. Didn't realize Capone had two gravesites.
Great video Scott. I trust your opinion and subscribed to your friends channel. So great that you help people just starting out. Your a great guy.
WONDERFUL CEMETERY MOUNT CARMEL , DENNIS FARINA THE ACTOR IS THERE TOO AND SAM GIANICANNA IVE BEEN THERE ITS REALLY AN ADVENTURE , GREAT VIDEO SCOTT THK YOU ❤🙏💋

As a 87 yr old I was born in Orange, NJ with many cousins in that town named Capone & in Brooklyn & other parts of NY. ON my father’s side (who was born in Italy) all my relatives lived thru out Brooklyn, Queens, Rockaway, & other parts of NY. My father who was older than Al was 3rd cousins. All my older relatives who are now deceased remembered him quite well & related their stories & knowledge to us kids.
Fantastic as usual
Thanks Scott for another great video.
Another awesome video and very interesting facts that you shared with us about them. Thank you for sharing Scott
So interesting Scott. LOVED the vid❤️ Can’t wait for the next one. Stay safe😃cat xxx

Good Evening Scott 🙋🏽 I hope you had a wonderful day ‼️ thanks for sharing this with me ‼️👍🏽😃💯❤️
Anybody besides me wanted Scott to rap on that beat in the beginning… I was waiting for him to just start going in for some strange reason 😂
thank you for sharing it..It was very interesting.
My great grandmother was friends with his wife and mother Theresa and Mae. She would tell us how she met Al a couple times and how nice and respectful he was to her. I told her its because you weren't a bootlegger in a rival gang..😂
Great video about Al Capone. And Awesome the story about Julia. May they both rest in peace 💞
Damn, this is cool!! Gonna watch after lunch, can't wait!!
Excellent vid Scott! I learn something new from all your videos!

I always look forward to your next video upload. Thank you Scott
Great video Scott i enjoy your channel and that was a fascinating story that you shated qith us.
Scott have you visited the Dead Children's Playground at Maple Hill Cemetery in Huntsville, Alabama? There's you some spirits going on all over that area....you can hear kids down there playing and no kids there...you can see the swings swinging, but no one in them....Now, they have taken out the "old" swing set I think", but there is still a swing set there and new play stuff, meant for live kids...but it's in the dead children's playground...I've been there!!!!! Was left there in the middle of the night by my aunt...LOL...bout died is what I bout did...LOL...
Cheers Brandon!!
Thank You 🙏🏻
Very cool video, thanks.
Beautiful headstone, I caught a glance of Giacana’s as you were coming in to the cemetery
I love these historical videos
❤from TX
I couldn’t find Brandon’s link to his channel?!? Great video Scott. I’ve been to Al Capones grave, just outside of Chicago.
Cool music really appropriate for this video 👍❤️
My mother had pics of her mother & some other relatives in caskets....I wouldn't even look at ppl when they died bc I was forced to go to a funeral when I was a small child & had nightmares for yrs....the only one I saw dead was my granny..I was singing hymns to her when she passed...
Thanks Scott! Well done, as always! ✌
Hell yeah I’m morbid… I do love Slayer after all… 😈 lol. Graves fascinate me. Thank u for this exploration. Loved it.

Last week I went to the Eastern state Penitentiary in Philly. Al Capone served some time there. They had a model of what his cell looked like .. pretty cool. If anyone is in Philly.. definitely check out the Penitentiary. It was AWESOME.
