, 16
, 181.
This article poses the question of whether Al Capone was penalized for Tax Evasion. The
premise of this argument stems from the author's contention that the crime a criminal is punished
for is less determined by the official characteristics of the criminal procedures than that
procedure's social meaning, which appears determined by the inspirations of the legal actors.
Mendlow's arguments help try to pin down one of the causes of Al Capone's fall.
