The old Capone boys got tied up in such scandals, when lawyers got caught in such an under cover sting operation. Judges, politicians,and the cops. Yeah, the cops were bribed.Lawyers paid off judges for favorable results for the bad guys.Besides contracts were rewarded for the okay, from corrupt people in office. When the "Loop area got "unwrapped"by such a sting.The 1st ward political boss at the time, who"held the cards","lost the deck." Just a sample of what the Capone Mob was up to."The Borgiastick."
