On a list titled “17 Famous People Who Started Out As Heroes But Lived Long Enough To Become Major Villains,” BuzzFeed includes Jim Jones, the murderous cult leader; Philippe Petain, a Nazi collaborator; Chris Benoit, who murdered his wife and child; Harry Harlow, who emotionally tortured baby monkeys, and — you guessed it — J.
