车辆背景与资料

阿尔·卡彭(Alphonse Gabriel Capone,/ˈpoʊn/,kə-POHN;[kaˈpoːne];1899年1月17日 – 1947年1月25日),有时以绰号“疤面”(Scarface)闻名,是一位美国黑帮头目和商人,在禁酒令时期因作为芝加哥犯罪集团(Chicago Outfit)的联合创始人和头目而声名狼藉,其统治期为1925年至1931年。他作为犯罪头目的七年统治在他33岁入狱时结束。

卡彭于1899年出生在纽约市,父母是意大利移民。他青少年时期加入了五点帮(Five Points Gang),并在妓院等有组织犯罪场所担任保镖。二十岁出头时,卡彭搬到芝加哥,成为约翰尼·托里奥(Johnny Torrio)的保镖,后者是一个非法供应酒精的犯罪集团的头目——该集团是芝加哥犯罪集团的前身——并通过西西里联盟(Unione Siciliana)获得政治保护。

与北区帮(North Side Gang)的冲突对卡彭的崛起和衰落起到了关键作用。在北区枪手几乎杀死托里奥后,托里奥退休,将控制权交给了卡彭。尽管卡彭通过日益暴力的手段扩大了私酒生意,但他与市长威廉·黑尔·汤普森(William Hale Thompson)和芝加哥警察局互惠互利的关系意味着他似乎免受法律制裁。

卡彭显然乐于成为关注焦点,例如在棒球比赛上露面时观众的欢呼声。他向各种慈善机构捐款,被许多人视为“现代罗宾汉”。情人节大屠杀(Saint Valentine's Day Massacre)中,七名来自敌对帮派的人在光天化日下被谋杀,损害了芝加哥和卡彭的公众形象,导致有影响力的市民要求政府采取行动,报纸则称卡彭为“头号公敌”(Public Enemy No. 1)。

联邦当局决心将卡彭关进监狱,并以二十二项逃税罪名起诉他。1931年,他被判五项罪名成立。在备受关注的案件中,法官采纳了卡彭在先前最终失败的谈判中承认其收入和未缴税款的陈述作为证据。他被定罪并被判处联邦监狱十一年监禁。定罪后,他用税法专家替换了他的辩护团队,美国最高法院的裁决加强了他的上诉理由,尽管他的上诉最终失败。卡彭在服刑初期出现神经梅毒迹象,并在近八年监禁后获释前日益衰弱。1947年,他在中风后死于心脏骤停。
