20 Evil People From History Who Won
Many people like to believe in Karma, comforting themselves in the thought that bad people eventually get what's coming to them. But if they believe that, then they also must believe in some concept of an afterlife, because these 20 evil people from history never faced the justice they deserved for their horrible actions. Here are some of the most evil people in history, who won the game of life in spite of that.
Predictably, dictators feature frequently on this list. Without an uprising, dictators can sit on their throne of wealth and power without consequences for the atrocities their people are going through. Kim Jong Il of North Korea fits this description, enjoying every pleasure life had to offer, while denying his people the same right. He ultimately died of a heart attack at the age of 70, and now his son continues his legacy and lifestyle. It is an uncanny run for a dictatorship. One can't imagine Putin, for example, dying of natural causes.
Idi Amin of Uganda was eventually ousted as that country's ruler, but thanks to the Saudis, he was able to live out his years under the most glorious house arrest anybody could ever ask for.

1.
Kim Jong Il. He lived in the lap of luxury while the vast majority of his country lived in abject poverty. He got steak and lobster every night, expensive alcohol imported from all over the world, had a film collection of 20,000 movies including Western films that were illegal for anyone else to own, was infallible and worshiped by the very people he was oppressing. -
2.
Shirō Ishii. The commander of Unit 731 and other facilities that performed medical experiments on human beings during WW2 in Japan. Some of the sickest stuff imaginable. He, along with several others were granted immunity in exchange for information and research. Got away free and never was punished. -

4.
The man who killed Renée Hartevelt. -
5.
In Germany we have Aribert Heim, the butcher of Mauthausen who was on a level with Mengele, and also never got prosecuted by the allies. Worked as a gynecologist after the war till 1962 when he got tipped off about police at his home so he fled to Egypt. -
6.
The guys that tortured Junko Furuta. -
7.
Leopold the 2nd. -
8.
Josef Mengele. The German ‘Doctor of Death’ who escaped Germany to South America, started a family and despite being hunted by the US, German and Israeli governments for decades, didn’t even hide his identity by the end of his life. He drowned after having a stroke in 1979. -
9.
Idi Amin of Uganda. Died in exile sponsored and funded by the Saudi royal family, allowing him two floors of a hotel and a generous stipend to live out his days. -
10.
Pol Pot got to die in his sleep in 1998. He deserved far worse. Dude was responsible for the torture and murder of MILLIONS of people, and got to grow relatively old and die in his sleep while not in jail. -

12.
The Sacklers. Through the pharmaceutical industry, the Sackler family essentially created the opioid crisis in America. -

The Marcos family. This family plundered almost the entire Philippine treasury during Ferdinand Marcos’ two decade rule. They were exiled to Hawaii for a few years, but they were able to go back to the Philippines nevertheless. Imee is a senator, and Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. is now the president of the Philippines. Trillions of pesos and tens of thousands of lives lost. -

Jimmy Saville. One of his victims once escaped him, ran into the lobby and shouted what Saville was doing. The people there simply laughed and mocked her. -

Mobutu Sese Seko, president of then-Zaire. He died in a luxurious exile in Morocco at age 79. -
17.
The House of Saud. They destroyed an entire religion from the inside out with their extremist views. Now, almost a quarter of the world is lured into believing the more extreme views that they represent, destroying vernacular adaptations of Islam, that had more room for matriarchy, for gender diversity, and a lot of other concepts that salafism does barely leave any room for, if any. -

Nobusuke Kishi, assaulter of Manchuria and twice Prime Minister of Japan. -
