When Benedict Arnold arrived in New York City in 1780, he was a general in the Continental Army but was secretly negotiating to surrender West Point to the British. His arrival marked a pivotal moment in his treasonous plans, as he sought to gain British favor and financial reward. Arnold's betrayal was not immediately discovered, but it ultimately had significant implications for the Revolutionary War, as it demonstrated the vulnerabilities within the American leadership. His actions would later be revealed, leading to his infamy as one of the most notorious traitors in American history.
