INFAMOUS AMERICANS

An American citizen born to Japanese immigrants is high on my list of infamous Americans.  Her name is Iva Toguri D'Aquino...but better known as Tokyo Rose.  It is alleged that she is the one, or one of several, who made radio broadcasts in the Pacific Theater throughout World War II in an attempt to discourage US military personnel. She was convicted of treason after the war, although solid evidence was lacking, and was later pardoned by President Ford.
