In 1931, notorious gangster Al Capone was arrested and convicted for tax evasion, marking the beginning of his downfall. Despite his extensive criminal empire, authorities struggled to charge him for more serious crimes like bootlegging and murder, eventually targeting his financial records. Capone was sentenced to 11 years in federal prison, a historic case that demonstrated the power of forensic accounting in combating organized crime.
