Answer 4

According to Stroud, on January 18, 1909, while he was away at work, an acquaintance of theirs, F. K. "Charlie" Von Dahmer, raped and viciously beat Kitty. On his return, Stroud confronted Charlie and a struggle ensued, resulting in Charlie's death from a gunshot wound. However, according to police reports from the time, Kitty had continued to engage in prostitution after arriving in Juneau, with Stroud acting as her pimp. Reportedly, Von Dahmer had refused to pay for a session with Kitty and Stroud had come to collect. The reports stated that Stroud had managed to knock Von Dahmer unconscious and then shot him at point blank range. Stroud was later arrested with Von Dahmer's wallet in his possession.

Although Stroud's mother Elizabeth retained a lawyer for her son, on August 23, 1909 he was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to twelve years in the federal penitentiary on Puget Sound's McNeil Island. (Stroud's crime was handled in the federal system as Alaska was not yet a state with its own judiciary.) While at McNeil Island, Stroud assaulted a hospital orderly who had reported him to the administration for attempting to obtain narcotics (morphine) through threats and intimidation and also reportedly stabbed a fellow inmate who was involved in the attempt to smuggle the narcotics.

Al Capone's crimes ranged from murder, tax evasion and prohibition charges.

Machine Gun Kelly's crimes were prohibition charges, murder and kidnapping.

They all share tax evasion as a charge.
