23. Phoolan Devi
Her name was Phoolan Devi, but she soon found herself with the nickname of Bandit Queen, and for a good reason. For years, she terrorized large portions of India in a variety of ways. By the time she was caught in 1983, she had almost 50 crimes to her name. She was a thief, an arsonist, a kidnapper, and even a murderer.

Phoolan Devi was born to a poor family in Uttar Pradesh. Wishing to escape from a failed marriage, she left her impoverished life to join a gang of bandits. Although she was the only woman in the gang, she found a place where she belonged. Her most notable crime was the killing of 21 men of higher status, or caste. In 1983, she turned herself in and went on to serve a little over a decade in prison. She was assassinated in 2001, just outside of her home in Delhi.
24. Kristen Gilbert
There have already been a couple stories of dangerous nurses on this list. Kristen Gilbert is another example of a nurse who seemed to be perfectly capable professionally but was actually hiding something more sinister than anyone could imagine.

In total, Kristen Gilbert killed four patients, although she had tried to kill two others in a similar fashion. Her method was what you would expect of a skilled nurse with a dark motive: she induced cardiac arrest in patients by overdosing them on a combination of drugs. She would then try to act as though she were saving them when they coded. She was sentenced to life in prison.
