3. Jean-Claude ‘Baby Doc’ Duvalier (Haiti)
Jean-Claude ‘Baby Doc’ Duvalier succeeded his father’s authoritarian rule in 1971, but his own regime collapsed in 1986 due to mass uprisings. He fled to France, where he lived in luxury exile with wealth funneled from Haiti’s coffers. His two-decade exile ended when he unexpectedly returned to Haiti in 2011, facing legal proceedings.
