          I think it crossed over with Manson which was 60s/70s but I think your point stands.

          Some of the criminals after the crossover were cult leaders though…

            Came back around with Tyson and Trump (depending on your preferred political party).

          I noticed that too. And I think it has to do with WW2. Hitler and his allies were the bad guys, and it seems there was a period going into and after the war where didn’t pay much attention to any other criminals. During this time we saw the birth of Super heroes, and we rallied around the good guys.
