Supposedly, it's "very incomplete!" But poticialgraveyard.com's List of Politicians Who Got into Trouble or Disgrace includes enough information that I had to hit the Page Down button on my laptop 61 times to reach the end.
Included are stories like that of Daniel E. "Devil Dan" Sickles, a U.S. representative from New York City who "shot and killed Philip Barton Key, his wife's lover and the son of the author of the national anthem." Devil Dan got off scot-key - er, scot-free - after arguing the first successful plea of temporary insanity in American history.
That didn't stop the Union Army from making him a general, for those who recognize his name from the Battle of Gettysburg.
