Fr.Miguel Hidalgo lived from May 8, 1753 to July 31, 1811. He was a Catholic priest who is called the 'Father of Mexican independence'.
Although a Catholic priest, he disobeyed the many orders that the religious order had given him to desist on his war against the legitimate government. Not only did he not obey, but he also gather a mob to march towards Mexico City.
In Guanajuato, his mob pillaged and raped women, even when Hidalgo had promised them not to do it. The mob didn't listen to him.
