General Butt Naked

Joshua Blahyi (or better known as General Butt Naked), a commander of a ULIMO-J militia in the 1st Liberian Civil War, was infamous for his cruel and bizarre behavior. As his nickname suggests, Blahyi fought almost entirely nude in combat, along with his milita "the Butt Naked Brigade" (sometimes they cross-dressed too in wedding dresses). This is either disturbingly inappropriate or humorous to the eyes of Westerners, but they believed if they fought naked into battle, they would literally be "magically" protected from bullets. Blahyi was also quite mentally unstable if you couldn't predict that already, with claims that Satan actually called him on the phone (apparently, they have phones in hell) to fight naked and preform human sacrifices. He also claimed to have talked to Satan regularly. If Blahyi's claims are to be believed, he would eat the hearts of children and drink their blood. He also claimed to have chopped off the heads of victims and used them as soccer balls. His apparent early life as a priest was he allegedly committed his 1st human sacrifice at age 11. Blahyi also have claimed to have taken part of gladiatorial duels to the death as a Krahn priest before his involvement in the War. Blahyi is now to this day unexpectedly a pastor for some Evangelical church. His converstion to Christanity was that allegedly, Jesus Christ came to him "in a blinding light" and told him to repent of his sins or die. In his pastor life, he has allegedly felt "remorse" for his crimes, and he frequently is extorting forgiveness from his former victims. His claims are that he was not responsible for his crimes, but he was possessed by Satan. To my personal opinion, Blahyi has actually committed several of the atrocities that he claimed to have commited,  but due to drugs and mental illness, he added the religious elements to his story.
