During Prohibition, Delaware was a popular location for bootleggers, and the District of Delaware saw a number of high-profile cases related to bootlegging and organized crime. One of the most famous cases was the 1935 trial of Al Capone's brother, Ralph Capone, who was charged with tax evasion in Wilmington.
