Who were the biggest names to receive a \government-funded vacation\ at Alcatraz?
Mob chieftain Al Capone was incarcerated from 1934 to ’39 – remember that it was the IRS, not the FBI, that finally nailed him. All-around monster Machine Gun Kelly was held there from 1934-51. Racketeer Mickey Cohen was behind bars at Alcatraz from 1961-62, and Richard Stroud (see next item) called the Rock home from 1942-59, most of it in the hospital wing. Kidnapper/bank robber Alvin ”Creepy” Karpis was imprisoned from 1936-62.
