CHICAGO'S UNDERWORLD: LIKE IT OR NOT, AL CAPONE HAD A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT , INFAMOUS OR NOTORIOUS, IN THE CITY'S CRIME HISTORY. Until lately (I was looking at my Capone's shotglass souvenir collections), I did not delved in how his family and relatives managed to avoid a life of crime, living under the police radar and the shame and heartaches attached with the family name. They all seemed to have done great and lived a "clean" life!
