After the Eighteenth Amendment passed, organized crime took over the distribution of alcohol due to the illegal demand for it. Bootlegging flourished as people sought to consume alcohol despite the ban, leading to a rise in crime and violence. Consequently, the amendment was eventually repealed in 1933 due to its failure to curb alcohol consumption and its unintended consequences.
