Al Capones parents were hard-working law-abiding Italian immigrants.

That may or may not be true-but there must have been something in him as a child that was completely missed by his parents. Maybe they were so hard working that they missed it.Maybe they liked the money that Al brought in from his various criminal activities.Times were very difficult then for everyone-but mostly for immigrants who wanted only to be a part of the American landscape.
As for excuses being made for criminals,I couldn't agree with you more. I was just answering the question you put out earlier. The sickos and weirdos are either ridiculed by siblings and/or parents,brought up with abusive,drug-addicted parents or just simply ignored or treated as a pain rather than a gift.But you are quite correct-these people need to be punished,absolutely.

Thank you. Suffice to say kids don’t come with an instruction manual.
