Do you think John Wilkes Booth can still be classed as infamous even though he died over 150 years ago?

Of course. Infamous means the person has an important negative place in history, like Emperor Nero of Rome, who lived a lot longer than 150 years ago.

Yes, John Wilkes Booth is still considered infamous for his historic act of assassinating President Abraham Lincoln in 1865. His actions had a profound impact on American history, and his notoriety has endured through the years. Assassination of a sitting president was unprecedented, cementing his place in the dark annals of history. 📜

I think you might be confusing notoriety with familiarity or recognition.

He is definitely still infamous.

Does everyone know who he is? Probably not.

No matter how much time has passed, a presidential assassin will always be infamous. The hell kind of question is this? 😑

[OneViewpoint]

There is no time limit on infamous. Once an asshole always an asshole.

Do you think Genghis Khan should still be infamous?
