From Wikipedia regarding Al Capone:
"Although Capone always did his business through front men and had no accounting records linking him to his earnings, new laws enacted in 1927 allowed the federal government to pursue Capone on tax evasion, their best chance of finally convicting him."
"Al Capone was found guilty on five of twenty three counts and sentenced to ten years in a federal prison."
