In other words, until he dies.

Unfortunately for us the worst people live the longest. Just look at henry kissinger

I think there's a bit of bias there. History's worst are considered as such because they died "a bad person," which is of note to us, whereas most of humanity is good or at least complex.

Not only is news more sellable when its negative, but our books record the moments of tragedy more than peace, even the human genome favors "remembering" the negative in order to survive.
