Anniversary of the St. Valentine’s Massacre

For the best scoop on the The St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, nothing beats the History Channel’s website. A while back they included this incident in their series about the days that “shook the world” (I can’t remember the actual title). Despite Capone succeeding in crippling his Chicago rival Bugs Moran, the rest of the Outfit never trusted ol’ Scarface again because he broke the rules on how to remove a competitor. The hitmen Capone involved were also hunted down and eliminated over the years for their involvement.
