My granddaddy played a mean game if pocket pool. But he didn't go pro.

From the Wiki's

Capone was widely assumed to have been responsible for ordering the 1929 Saint Valentine's Day Massacre in an attempt to kill Bugs Moran, the head of the North Side Gang. Moran was the last survivor of the main North Side gunmen; his succession had come about because his similarly aggressive predecessors Vincent Drucci and Hymie Weiss had been killed in the violence that followed the murder of original leader Dean O'Banion.

To monitor their targets' habits and movements, Capone's men rented an apartment across from the trucking warehouse and garage at 2122 North Clark Street that served as Moran headquarters. On the morning of Thursday, February 14, 1929, Capone's lookouts signaled gunmen disguised as police to start a "raid". The faux police lined the seven victims along a wall without a struggle, then signaled for accomplices with machine guns. The seven victims were machine-gunned and shot-gunned. Photos of the victims shocked the public and damaged Capone's reputation. Within days, Capone received a summons to testify before a Chicago grand jury on violations of the federal Prohibition Law, but he claimed to be too unwell to attend at that time.

Who knew?

The only bad thing he ever did was tax fraud, that's it, nothing else could be proven...he was such an Angel. Does Wikipedia say how he got his scars?

Yes it does. And nothing else could be proven?

My grandfather lived in Sioux City, Iowa (later played college ball for the Hawkeyes), then moved to Chicago. There's a distillery in Templeton, Iowa between Sioux City and Chicago, that makes good Rye. That's all I'm going to say on the matter.

No, we're not. A headline from a recent Robb Report article.

Like I've said, I'm not going to talk about my grandfather and Capone anymore.

Back to the original meaning of this "rabbit hole"...Just because it can't be proven in court or from an investigation, doesn't mean it didn't happen. It's not that hard to understand.
