#1 John D. Rockefeller/ Rockefeller Conspiracies
Known as one of the more prominent of the Rockefellers and the primary founder of the businesses they ran, John D. Rockefeller was the son of William Rockefeller Sr.
Among his six children are John David Rockefeller and William Rockefeller Jr. Both became co-founders of what was one time, America's largest oil company, Standard Oil. Together with his brother, John brought the Rockefeller's immense wealth and was dubbed as the "richest man" in America at one point. Beyond becoming the first billionare in the world John was also know as being extremely ruthless.
#2 David Koresh - Waco Texas
Born August 17, 1959, Vernon Wayne Howell, also known as "David Koresh" served as the leader of a cult-like sect who called themselves the "Branch Davidians." In 1993 Koresh led a 51-day standoff against the ATF and FBI when the bureaus issued search warrants against the sect on suspicion of illegal hoarding of firearms.
David was raised by his grandparents in Texas and attended the Seventh Day Adventist Church. During his senior year, he dropped out to become a carpenter before moving to Los Angeles trying to make it as a rockstar. When he moved back to Texas, he was kicked out of his church when he tried to pursue the pastor's daughter.
By 1982, he moved to Waco and joined the Branch Davidians, founded by a man named Ben Roden. Roden studied under Victor Houteff who was the leader of the original Davidian Seventh Day Adventist group. However, when Roden formed his own group, his teachings were not connected with the original Davidians.
