Indeed ... a 17th century war criminal was Tarleton the Butcher.

Not only that, Tarleton ran for Parliament opposing Wilbur Wilberforce and the anti-slavery movement.

Guilford County, NC, the home of the battle of Guilford Courthouse has many roads and streets named after participants in the battle. Tarleton’s name was noticeably absent for over 200 years until about 20 years ago when some out of town developer put in a subdivision and named one of the roads, Tarleton Way.
