It was in his wife's name in Miami.

He fishes, he smokes cigars by the pool.

At some point, some people said his mind was so far gone that he would just toss a tennis ball into the net over and over again.

like a puppy chasing the tennis ball.

He's incoherent at times.

He's almost childlike in his behavior.

And sometimes people said that he had paranoid delusions that someone was coming for him.

You'd see a headlight coming down the road and he would think that, you know, they were coming to assassinate him.

But his mind was clearly failing him.

And those last years were really just spent alone.

And in January 1947, he dies.

He's only 48 years old.

But interestingly, the government never seized the house that his wife owned.

And the question has often remained, like, what happened to Capone's money?

If he really made these millions that the federal government claims, what happened to all the money that he made?

Did he not make as much as we thought?

Did he spend it all as fast as he was making it?

Or some people have speculated over the years, is there a big suitcase or many suitcases of cash sitting somewhere to this day?

I suspect he never really accumulated any great wealth because he was just spending it and giving it away as fast as he was making it.

He had one son, and that son ended up living a very quiet life, never got involved in anything criminal.
