What is the biggest criminal act?

This question sounds philosophical as much as legal. Certainly the activities of Adolf Hitler were criminal, and it is fair to say that the 911 tragedy was the result of a criminal conspiracy. Those are horrendous crimes beyond comprehension. In the more specific area, the greatest criminal act, no doubt receives the greatest penalty.
