When did General Brigadier Benedict Arnold turned into a spy for the British after the battle of Saratoga?
Benedict Arnold's decision to become a spy for the British (and otherwise collaborate with them against the American colonists) appears to have been made in 1778 -- one year after the Battle of Saratoga. This was the year that he was investigated by the Continental Congress for financial irregularities; he was also once again passed over for promotion around this time. It was not until 1780, however, that his new allegiance was discovered by the American colonists.
