Chi è stato davvero Al Capone? Gangster, mafioso, assassino, ma anche il filantropo, personaggio eccentrico e alla moda, benefattore dei poveri, uomo generoso che dava una possibilità a chi veniva dalla strada. Non è facile cercare di inquadrare una personalità complessa come quella di Al Capone, soprattutto dopo che la sua figura è stata mitizzata negli anni da film e libri che hanno trattato l'argomento con una certa disinvoltura, per così dire.

Redan 1931 hade spel och dobbel legaliseras i delstaten och de första stegen mot en stad som sedermera skulle skumma över av excess hade tagits. In stiger Bugsy Siegel, en charmant men också hänsynslös tuffing, och staden blev sig aldrig lik igen. Med alla östkustsgangsters ett telefonsamtal bort satte han klorna i Las Vegas och var en av de som formade staden till vad den skulle komma att bli.

Det är 1930-tal, och livet är svårt för många familjer. I finska Österbotten, vid byn Sikalaby, bodde familjen Syrjanen.

In the late 1970s, a string of seemingly unconnected murders had Harlem police and federal authorities at their wits' end until they realized several commonalities. The victims were all either Mafia members or potential witnesses of Mafia activity and they'd all been shot from .22 pistols traced back to a single private sale in Florida. From these details, the FBI and police were able to build a profile of a rogue sect of Mafia hitmen known as the East Harlem Purple Gang.
