Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
No one can say if Al Capone personally killed anyone!. He was never convicted of murder!. Earl "Hymie" Weiss was an mobster who became a leader of the Prohibition-era North Side Gang and a bitter rival of Al Capone!. Hymie's killers were never definitely identified, but Chicago Police suspected that the machine gunner may have been Jack McGurn!. Details are at the Wikipedia sites linked below!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

since the man named Weiss is related, start first with his specific records!. Ilinois is getting some great records online!. Using his date of death, you should be able to locate a death certificate and find the cause of death!. If it fits the story, then work from that for historical back up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't know, but search for "Hymie Weiss"Www@QuestionHome@Com
