I was always under the assumption that he became boss after Torrio was shot in 1925, just that he was still fighting wars with other Italian gangs at the time so there wasn’t an official boss of the whole city yet. So did Torrio remain boss until the late 20s just more in the shadows?
Yes, I also thought Capone took over when Torrio "retired" to Italy in 1925 after he was nearly killed by Weiss's gang and served several months in jail on a booze rap. Also, was Capone actually "made"?
