00:00This program is intended for an adult audience. We prefer to warn you of this.
00:40The sea breeze had long nurtured its plan. For this unprecedented heist, the Bastille clan decided to
00:48playing at home.
00:51And he chose a very special day.
00:58During Easter weekend, a sacred date in Corsica.
01:04This is the time when cities empty of their inhabitants who return to their home villages to celebrate
01:09religious holidays.
01:14A perfect opportunity for the breeze to take action in a deserted Bastille.
01:20The target is one of the city's largest banks.
01:24Crédit Lyonnais.
01:27To organize this heist, the sea breeze relied on a very promising new recruit.
01:34Richard Casanova.
01:38He was the one who obtained the floor plan by bribing a bank employee.
01:46And by rigorously studying the valuable documents, he detected a flaw in the security system.
01:54On the second basement level of the neighboring building, only one wall separates the stairwell from the hall of
02:00chests.
02:03A wall made of simple cinder blocks and, most importantly, without an alarm.
02:13In less than 30 minutes, the robbers speed to the safe.
02:19Yeah, they're small private safes, so they opened, you know, like sardine cans, with
02:24a hammer and a chisel.
02:27And there are, I don't know, 250 of them.
02:31And the problem, well, is knowing when to stop, you know.
02:34The perpetrators entered through the gate of a building adjacent to the bank.
02:38Neighbors heard noises starting at 2 p.m.
02:41And it was finally around 7 p.m. that the criminals were interrupted by the building's concierges.
02:51What happened?
02:53Well, they robbed us and that's all there is to it, huh.
02:55They hit your wife, that's what's happening.
02:56I was hit twice, twice on the head with a rifle butt.
03:00And I was laid on the floor afterwards, I didn't see anything, you see?
03:04You're in the dark here.
03:08There, they were forced to leave two flat bags behind them, but they had already taken quite a lot, huh.
03:14The robbers opened 159 safes, for a haul of several million francs.
03:19but the bank will refuse to disclose the exact amount.
03:24This is the first robbery of such magnitude for the sea breeze.
03:28With this masterstroke, Richard Casanova, at just 23 years old,
03:33has just made a spectacular official entry into the Bastia clan.
03:40And he joined the criminal group, becoming the other historical robber of the Breeze.
03:46Francis Mariani.
03:50A seminal heist, like the starting point of a long series.
03:58The sea breeze, the robbery, that's their priority, that's their job.
04:03They are robbery specialists, built like clockwork mechanisms.
04:10The attacks they plan are meticulously prepared.
04:14Everything is planned in advance.
04:16It truly bears the mark of the sea breeze.
04:19For the bandit, the thug, it's the fastest way to get rich.
04:37In the sea breeze, Richard Casanova and Francis Mariani
04:44will gradually increase their power, carrying out a series of robberies.
04:48The two seem to be polar opposites.
04:51Francis Mariani, on the one hand, with a raw, visceral violence,
04:56and Richard Casanova, the handsome rogue.
05:02Richard Casanova, he's an educated, intelligent guy.
05:07When you saw him, he looked a bit like a bourgeois.
05:10Presented well, you didn't think he was a guy capable of killing and robbing.
05:18He was someone who was certainly of a higher than average intellectual level.
05:23He was the mastermind behind the breeze; he was a genius.
05:30Francis Mariani is a much more uncomplicated character.
05:33We're no longer dealing with pure violence.
05:37Francis was a guy who wasn't afraid of anything.
05:40who has the impression of dealing with an animal, a wild beast.
05:45These two will gradually acquire a form of notoriety,
05:50a form of influence within the group of the mayoral election.
05:56For me, it represented prostitutes.
05:59They were hardened robbers.
06:00They were exceptional guys.
06:02I don't think there will ever be anyone like them again.
06:09Richard Casanova, Francis Mariani.
06:12Two names that have left their mark on the history of the sea breeze.
06:17And yet, nothing really predestined them to meet.
06:23Francis Mariani comes from a mountain village, an hour from Bastia.
06:29He grew up in a very modest farming family,
06:32He left school at 14 and became a father at only 16.
06:40Richard Casanova, 10 years old and without a cadet,
06:42He, on the other hand, grew up in the center of Bastia.
06:45Pampered by his rather well-to-do shopkeeper parents,
06:48He lacks nothing.
06:51At school, he is brilliant, skipping grades.
06:54And his teachers adore him.
07:01For Francis Mariani, the path of a thug would begin very early.
07:07At 17, he was already experiencing his first incarceration.
07:11For armed robbery.
07:15The two future godfathers of the sea breeze do not yet know each other.
07:18And it is each on their own that they will enter into banditry.
07:24It's not happening in Corsica, but on the mainland.
07:29They will cut their teeth as henchmen serving the Marseille underworld at the end of the
07:331970s.
07:35These are the classes of crime.
07:38Marseille is the historical headquarters of Corsican organized crime.
07:42For young Corsicans who want to make their mark, Marseille is where things happen.
07:47Things are getting serious.
07:50When he arrived in Marseille, Francis Mariani knew no one.
07:55But he does know where to go.
08:01My parents, they owned a bar.
08:04The Old Canal bar.
08:06It was in the city center, behind the Old Port.
08:09It wasn't like today.
08:10Today, it's all about tourism and everything.
08:13It was truly sordid.
08:16There were legionnaires, there were thugs, there were a few prostitutes.
08:22That's when the Corsicans arrived.
08:24When they arrive in Marseille, a Corsican will always go and see another Corsican.
08:29So, they arrived at our house.
08:33Francis was completely broke, penniless, and miserable.
08:38He arrived to carry out the robberies.
08:42In this bar, he met young people like himself, from Marseille.
08:46The four of them went to Paris.
08:49They committed the robberies.
08:56The first bank robberies weren't big scores.
09:00In the jargon of the underworld, they are called "rentres-sorts".
09:07Rentres-sorts, it's a quick robbery.
09:09One last one for the road.
09:13It was a fashionable sport that Corsicans practiced a lot.
09:21This is the first level when you start attacking banks.
09:25You go to a bank with your friend or two friends,
09:28You check the cash register, the trunk behind it, the surface area, and you leave.
09:36It should last three minutes, five minutes maximum.
09:39We go in, we take the crates, the safe which is open behind the counter, and we leave.
09:47Just a few weeks after his first comebacks,
09:50The very young Francis Mariani excels in the practice of his express robberies.
09:55and impresses his elders.
09:59Francis was never a half-baked guy.
10:02An hour later, having entered a life of crime,
10:06He had a personality.
10:09He had a determination,
10:10He had a look.
10:14Despite his youth, despite being just starting out,
10:16we understood
10:17that this guy, he was
10:19good seed, as we say back home.
10:22It was good grain.
10:26I robbed a police station with him.
10:32I didn't need to do that.
10:35But he persecuted me.
10:36So I told him, come on, let's go.
10:44Robbing the post office is a mere formality.
10:49So, on the way back,
10:51Mariani proposes to his partner
10:53to stop at another bank,
10:55a nice way to end the day.
10:58Between Avignon and Cavaillon,
11:00he told me,
11:00Oh dear, there's a small bank.
11:02Come on, we need to rob this one.
11:04But he bothered you.
11:06Because you, for example,
11:08You calculate the risks.
11:10For him, there was no risk.
11:12Because he wasn't afraid of dying.
11:16The only risk is prison.
11:18But that's part of the job.
11:21In 1977,
11:23Francis Mariani is arrested again
11:25for armed robbery.
11:29He is 28 years old
11:30and will remain incarcerated for 4 years.
11:39In prisons,
11:40It's true that we've always been a bit different.
11:42Because we stood together in solidarity.
11:44And it's true that in every prison,
11:46We arrive, there are Corsicans.
11:47So the first thing we do between us,
11:50When we know this, we welcome each other.
11:55It is in this prison environment
11:57that Francis Mariani established
11:59strong relationships with thugs
12:01from the Corsican-Marseille milieu.
12:04Very valuable connections
12:06who, upon his release from prison,
12:08will benefit the nascent clan of the sea breeze.
12:13Francis Mariani,
12:14he will go through the ranks
12:15in the world of thuggery
12:17and he returns to the heart of the sea breeze,
12:18particularly through village ties,
12:21because his house
12:22is at the foot of the village of Laporta,
12:25stronghold of the Guadzelli brothers.
12:30La Porta,
12:31This village is an hour's drive from Bastia.
12:33is the other birthplace
12:35of the sea breeze.
12:36Because he watched Francis Mariani grow up,
12:39but also Angelo,
12:40Paul Louis and Francis Guadzelli,
12:43who will become pillars of the Bastia clan.
12:48In the early 1980s,
12:50the Guadzelli brothers
12:51therefore naturally welcome
12:53their unruly neighbors
12:54within the nascent breeze,
12:56combining their network
12:57and their experience,
12:58but also their thirst
12:59to settle things.
13:07Back to Bastia
13:08towards the end of the 1970s.
13:12According to Richard Casanova,
13:14the route before joining
13:15the sea breeze
13:16It's not that of a thug.
13:18Not at the beginning of the month.
13:22He dreams of becoming a motorcycle racer
13:24and starts shopping
13:25as amateurs.
13:28But at 17,
13:30the events that are shaking
13:31the island of beauty
13:31will change his destiny.
13:42Richard is 17-18 years old,
13:44He has political ideas
13:45like many young people
13:46of that era in Corsica
13:47and the FLNC
13:49It has just been created.
13:50So him,
13:51he's following this closely
13:53And...
13:53very close indeed.
13:57From its creation in 1976,
13:59the Corsican National Liberation Front,
14:01the FLNC,
14:03demands independence
14:04from Corsica
14:04and opposes the French state
14:06through violent action.
14:09We started
14:10to be part of the FLNC
14:11at the time
14:12where in the 1970s
14:13there was,
14:13let's say,
14:15all the struggles
14:15national liberation
14:16around the world.
14:17So those were the ideals
14:18which were shared
14:19by a number
14:21important young people
14:22in Corsica
14:23and throughout the world.
14:24And we,
14:25we included ourselves
14:25in that process.
14:29During the ten years
14:30which will follow,
14:31more than 150 attacks
14:32are committed every year
14:33in the name of ideas
14:34supported by the FLNC.
14:37As during
14:37tonight
14:38March 9, 1979
14:40where the nationalist group
14:41this time he attacks
14:42to banks.
14:45In leaflets
14:46left behind
14:47the FLNC explains
14:48by attacking
14:49to the banks,
14:50he wanted to fight
14:51colonialism
14:52who uses
14:52these credit institutions
14:53as a means of oppression
14:55of the Corsican people.
14:58Among the installers
14:59bombs,
15:00Richard Casanova,
15:01Barely 20 years old,
15:02is entirely
15:03dedicated to the cause.
15:06Richard,
15:06he is with a friend
15:07to him.
15:08They first
15:09robbed a warehouse
15:10where there was
15:10explosives
15:11for careers
15:12and then they left
15:13to do their rounds.
15:17They were driving in Bastia
15:19and Richard turned on
15:20the strands
15:20and threw that
15:21on the facades
15:21agencies.
15:27that night
15:27in his twenties
15:28explosions
15:29in Corsica,
15:30It's him
15:31who does the most.
15:32He took action,
15:34Crazy stuff.
15:38Armed struggle
15:39of the FLNC
15:39need
15:40to find
15:40funding.
15:42And for that,
15:43there is what
15:44the executives
15:44of the nationalist movement
15:45call
15:46the revolutionary tax.
15:49The revolutionary tax
15:50was used to buy
15:50weapons
15:51to find hiding places,
15:53to pay for trips
15:54and people
15:55to redo
15:55operations,
15:56etc.
15:56It was the logistics department.
16:00To ensure
16:00the administration,
16:01the FLNC
16:02solicits
16:03companies
16:03and merchants
16:04who pay the tax
16:05willingly or by force.
16:09But sometimes,
16:09the nationalist movement
16:10will also go and help himself
16:12directly into these banks
16:13that they consider
16:14as accomplices
16:15of colonialism.
16:18Richard,
16:18That's how it is.
16:19that he will begin
16:20to commit his first robberies
16:21for the FLNC.
16:24When you were doing that,
16:25It was 50-50.
16:27That is to say, you were keeping
16:28half the money
16:29and the other half
16:30went into the crates
16:30of the FLNC.
16:34At the turning
16:35from the 70s and 80s,
16:37Richard Casanova
16:38establishes its base camp
16:39in Marseille.
16:40And from there,
16:42radiates throughout the region
16:43for his robberies.
16:46He, with that money,
16:47that also allows him
16:48to finance the races
16:49motorcycle
16:50Because that's his passion.
16:51He's a very, very good pilot.
16:53He was a guy who was driving
16:53very, very quickly.
16:55He left very early
16:55on the continent,
16:56He was doing errands and everything.
16:57He was very strong.
17:02I had 3 or 4 friends.
17:04We were committing burglaries
17:05together.
17:06And each time,
17:07He was telling me about a Richard.
17:08He told me
17:08we went to Albi
17:09with him.
17:10He ran a race
17:12motorcycle.
17:12After that, we started a bank.
17:14He put the motorcycle
17:14in the van.
17:18And one day,
17:19we were on the terrace
17:20from a café in Marseille.
17:21Then this guy arrived,
17:23Richard,
17:24a good guy
17:25nice,
17:26with big glasses
17:27sight.
17:29That's where I hit it off.
17:31A great guy,
17:32extraordinary.
17:33But you wouldn't have
17:34said a thug at the start.
17:35If I don't tell you
17:36what he did,
17:37he was,
17:38he even told me,
17:39of the FLNC.
17:39Do you see?
17:43Richard Casanova
17:44is not yet 21 years old.
17:45An age where nothing
17:46is not impossible,
17:47where one feels immortal.
17:50And little by little,
17:51him too.
17:52carves its furrow
17:52in the middle
17:53Marseille's organized crime.
17:55Between robbery
17:56and motorcycle racing,
17:58at a frantic pace.
18:00To this day,
18:02of December 1980.
18:04He will eventually get himself
18:05spotted by the police.
18:08who gets arrested
18:09practically caught red-handed
18:12as he prepares
18:13to a breaking bank.
18:15And then,
18:16It's prison.
18:23Richard Casanova
18:24now incurs
18:25ten years in prison.
18:26Perhaps more.
18:29But five months
18:30after the start
18:31of his incarceration,
18:32political news
18:33comes to give him
18:34a new hope.
18:36Sunday, May 10, 1981
18:38we live together
18:39a decisive moment.
18:41François Mitterrand
18:42is elected president
18:43of the Republic.
18:44Among the promises
18:45by François Mitterrand
18:46there is amnesty
18:47political prisoners.
18:50And in particular
18:51the members of the FLNC
18:52imprisoned.
18:55From there,
18:56Casanova, for his part,
18:57will return to
18:58the leaders of the movement
18:58saying
19:00“I was arrested,
19:01releases his common law,
19:02I need to go
19:03in politics
19:04to be freed
19:05through presidential amnesty.
19:08To be considered
19:09as a political prisoner,
19:11the FLNC must therefore
19:12recognize
19:12the shares
19:13by Richard Casanova
19:14in support of the movement.
19:18They said
19:18"No, no,"
19:19No way.
19:19let people say
19:20that the FLNC
19:20commits robberies
19:22touches money
19:22like that. "
19:23So they didn't want to.
19:26For Casanova,
19:27That's a real letdown.
19:29The FLNC abandoned him.
19:31He who gave so much
19:32to the cause.
19:35Behind,
19:36There is a real question.
19:36For him,
19:37It's basically, "Go to hell."
19:41And then actually,
19:42lucky break.
19:43three months later,
19:43He is free.
19:44No grounds for dismissal
19:45of the three,
19:46four files
19:46that he had
19:46And he leaves.
19:50From now on,
19:51Richard Casanova
19:52has his hands free
19:53and already
19:53solid experience
19:54of a robber.
19:58A profile
19:59which goes very fast
20:00attract attention
20:01sea breeze
20:01internaissante.
20:05In Marseille,
20:05in the environment,
20:06Everyone knows each other.
20:07So Richard,
20:08even though he is younger
20:09for about ten years,
20:10it happens very quickly
20:11noticeable by the breeze.
20:14We spot it.
20:15There is a species
20:16observation
20:16school of crime
20:18where the elders
20:19spot a little
20:20the heads
20:21the most restless
20:22and the most capable.
20:25Richard,
20:25She is from Bastia.
20:26like them.
20:27And he's a local boy.
20:29SO,
20:30There,
20:30It's fate.
20:35Richard Casanova,
20:36he is a character
20:37who is recruited
20:38by the sea breeze
20:39for skills
20:40which have been noticed
20:42within organized crime
20:43Corsican-Marseille
20:44and who will integrate
20:46this core
20:46extremely closed off.
20:49Richard Casanova
20:50there
20:51Francis Mariani,
20:53just
20:53released from prison.
20:56And very quickly,
20:57the appetite of those two
20:57for the robbery
20:58will give birth
20:59a friendship
21:00which then appears
21:01unwavering.
21:04With the alliance
21:05of these two men,
21:07the breeze shifts
21:08in a new era.
21:22from 1981 onwards,
21:24we realize
21:25that we have a lot of robberies.
21:27But in robberies,
21:29I can tell you
21:29that at one time,
21:30when I was at the prosecutor's office,
21:31we sometimes had
21:33four, five robberies
21:34per day.
21:36during the 1980s,
21:38it was estimated that
21:39this team
21:40sea breeze
21:40had made about a hundred
21:42robberies in France.
21:43That's huge.
21:49For the breeze,
21:50were ending the era
21:51small bracelets
21:52done hastily.
21:53From now on,
21:54the Bastiers
21:54they think bigger.
21:57They will follow
21:58the example
21:58from another band
21:59of robbers,
22:01Parisians,
22:03to whom the media
22:04find quickly
22:04a now famous name
22:07the wig gang.
22:10The method is known.
22:11We'll use a small agency,
22:12tinted windows,
22:13the invisible interior,
22:14the coffers full,
22:15rather the French Riviera
22:16or the upscale neighborhoods of Paris.
22:18They are in disguise.
22:19adorned with wigs,
22:20fauna
22:20and fake moustaches.
22:22They take hostages
22:23employees and customers,
22:25they work very quickly.
22:26Then,
22:26with a hammer and chisel,
22:27we're going to force it
22:28the compartments
22:29of the vault.
22:30The Wig Gang
22:32has just initiated
22:32this new method
22:33which very quickly
22:34will set a precedent
22:36and firstly
22:37in the sea breeze.
22:40They began
22:41at the same time
22:41with the Parisian wigs.
22:43They were friends, by the way.
22:45They were friends
22:45with some of the hairpieces
22:46And they helped each other.
22:50Every time
22:51that we will see appear
22:52hairpieces
22:53in the testimonies
22:53bank employees
22:55who were robbed,
22:56we will say
22:57That's it,
22:57It's the wig gang.
22:58And so,
22:59Everyone is lost.
23:00The police officers,
23:01the media,
23:02the bankers,
23:03nobody knows
23:04who is really
23:05the wig gang.
23:06And the sea breeze
23:07will use
23:08this diversion,
23:09this device,
23:10this tip.
23:14Wigs are everywhere,
23:15sometimes at the same time.
23:17There's the Parisian gang,
23:19but also
23:20small teams
23:21less structured
23:21which will always end
23:23by getting caught.
23:25and in the middle,
23:26the breeze,
23:27She,
23:27ride the wave
23:29and takes advantage of the confusion.
23:35Francis Mariani
23:37and Richard Casanova
23:38They made the wigs.
23:41The breeze has already been in there
23:44and we hadn't heard anything about them,
23:45All anyone was talking about was the wig gang.
23:49This is one of the strengths
23:50of the sea breeze.
23:51They realized, in fact
23:51an incalculable number
23:53bank robberies
23:54using the same method of hairpieces
23:56that the Bélaïch group
23:57of Menilmontant.
23:59They took shelter
24:01behind that group
24:02who was arrested
24:03and decimated.
24:07Undeniably,
24:08the sea breeze
24:09has become
24:10the wig gang
24:11the most effective
24:12because that one
24:13that we never caught.
24:15Question.
24:16What could one think?
24:17a banker
24:18when he sees him coming
24:19someone disguised like that
24:20with a submachine gun
24:21by hand?
24:23Answer.
24:24Of course,
24:25They think it's a hold-up.
24:27If the journalists
24:28have fun imitating
24:29wigs,
24:30the reality,
24:31She,
24:31is very different
24:33much more elaborate.
24:37If you have the mask,
24:39They won't open the door for you.
24:40It's like you're introducing yourself
24:41with gloves.
24:42They won't open the door for you.
24:44No, you introduce yourself
24:45in a wig.
24:46Introduce yourself,
24:46You're doing well.
24:47That's fine.
24:48you ring,
24:49We'll open it for you.
24:55wearing a wig,
24:56It's the makeup used in movies.
24:57That's what we call it.
24:59There's a makeup artist
25:00who does your makeup.
25:01I think the thing is,
25:02we paid him
25:03four sticks
25:04in Paris.
25:06They do your makeup well.
25:07You see,
25:07You are a different man.
25:13We used to wear wigs,
25:15glasses.
25:16For fingerprints,
25:17We used glue.
25:18on the fingers
25:19at the time,
25:20because it masked
25:20the fingerprints.
25:24We put
25:24dentist's cotton balls,
25:26large round cotton balls
25:27dentists in the cheeks
25:27to defarm a little
25:28the jaw,
25:30fake beauty marks.
25:33It's a piece of adhesive tape.
25:36as if we had something.
25:37Because people,
25:37they notice a lot
25:38the details,
25:39but on a face,
25:40they will watch
25:41the piece of adhesive tape
25:41and maybe not
25:42the rest of the figure.
25:48That's it.
25:49Hairpieces.
25:49Wigs,
25:50It's the wig.
25:51And then there's makeup.
25:51of cinema.
25:52When you get back,
25:53It's not you anymore.
25:57Why were they dressing up too?
25:59Because they knew very well
26:00that it was the beginning
26:01surveillance cameras.
26:04We had to put on makeup
26:06to avoid being identified
26:08based on the camera footage.
26:11The robbery technique,
26:12She,
26:13is immutable.
26:16A first group
26:17wearing wigs
26:18gets opened
26:19the security airlock
26:20and immediately
26:21the clientele
26:22and the employees.
26:26The second group,
26:27wearing only simple balaclavas,
26:29takes care of going to break in
26:30the chests
26:30using hammers
26:31and chisels.
26:35Tokiwoki and Scanner
26:36allow the commando
26:37to monitor
26:37the frequencies
26:38of the police
26:39to check
26:40that the alarm
26:40was not given.
26:45At the time,
26:46in the 1980s,
26:48There was nothing complicated about it.
26:49It was you and your luck,
26:51You and your balls.
26:52It's true that it seems simple
26:53Put like that,
26:55but it was still
26:57reserved for guys
26:58who knew how to keep their composure.
27:01And in the breeze,
27:02That's convenient.
27:02because it wasn't
27:03what was missing.
27:06That means that
27:07when they returned
27:07in a bank,
27:08they prefer to go home
27:09the first
27:09that staying behind
27:11or when they had
27:12something to do,
27:13they were doing.
27:14There are a lot of lazy people.
27:15among thugs.
27:16They don't want to
27:17to go to work,
27:18So they are thugs.
27:20Do you see what they are?
27:21No,
27:21They were determined,
27:24very determined.
27:25That's why
27:26that they succeeded
27:28Quite a lot of things, actually.
27:29They are warriors.
27:31Believe me,
27:32They are warriors.
27:32but in every direction
27:33of the term.
27:36And what's more,
27:37They are tacticians.
27:43The job,
27:44it was identifying
27:45a target,
27:46to do a job
27:48recognition
27:49upstream
27:49worthy
27:50of an action service.
27:52The photos,
27:53habits,
27:54habits
27:56employees.
27:57That's what happened
27:57their superiority,
27:59Besides.
28:00It was infiltration.
28:03Infiltration,
28:05that's all about talent
28:06by Richard Casanova
28:08particularly skilled
28:09when it comes to
28:10to approach an employee
28:12and obtain from him
28:13not only
28:13the floor plans,
28:14but also
28:15its precious details
28:16on rituals
28:17which rhythm
28:17the life of a bank.
28:20He was a brain.
28:22He, Richard Casanova,
28:23he was a guy
28:23very, very, very psychological.
28:26And he was a guy
28:27who parachuted him in
28:28in New York.
28:29One hour later,
28:29he had money
28:30in the pocket.
28:31He was a guy
28:32wonderful.
28:36Often,
28:36I heard about
28:37in this sense
28:37of the organization
28:38quasi-military
28:39by Richard Casanova.
28:41So, it will happen
28:42a name on it
28:43regarding accuracy,
28:44the organization.
28:45Each one brought their own strengths.
28:46It complemented him, basically.
28:48It's like you take
28:48a football team,
28:49You have attackers,
28:50You have midfielders,
28:52You have defenders,
28:53You have a guardian.
28:53If there are only defenders,
28:54There is no goal.
28:58In just a few years,
29:00the accumulated sums
29:01through robberies
29:01are gigantic.
29:04And their sharing
29:06obeys strict rules.
29:09If tomorrow,
29:09they were involved in a case
29:11They were forced
29:11to share among 10.
29:13For example,
29:13they found a bag
29:14with money,
29:15they were taking a bag
29:15and they shared
29:16with everyone.
29:17That's how it was.
29:19Whether they have or not
29:20participated in a robbery,
29:22the core members
29:23They therefore receive the same amount.
29:25A virtually unique organization
29:27in the middle
29:28organized crime.
29:30Actually,
29:30the sea breeze,
29:31It's a board of directors.
29:33That's the dome.
29:34It's called the dome.
29:37Each month,
29:38this board of directors
29:39finds himself
29:40and there's the famous
29:41distribution of envelopes.
29:43That's to say
29:44the sum distributed equally
29:46of all their criminal cases
29:48distributed to each.
29:50This sharing contributes
29:52of absolute solidarity
29:53that should
29:53the godfathers of the breeze.
29:57Solidarity
29:58who will do
29:59their reputation.
30:02Everyone was moving away
30:03A little
30:03when they arrived.
30:04It was already
30:05the sea breeze
30:06before they do,
30:07that they write
30:08their story.
30:09They were already
30:10They're quite well-known, actually.
30:12And feared too.
30:13It was already starting.
30:14The Corsicans,
30:15they were scary
30:16at the time.
30:18And everyone
30:19I was telling you
30:19It's the breeze,
30:20the zebra.
30:21It was impressive
30:23because
30:23you saw them
30:25at the time,
30:25they came,
30:26There were about ten of them.
30:30My heart,
30:31it went boom,
30:31boom, boom.
30:33Because
30:34For example,
30:34this guy,
30:35Pierre-Marie
30:35Saint-Tucci,
30:36I was young,
30:37I didn't like him.
30:39And you were thinking
30:40I can't kill him.
30:41After,
30:42There is his brother to kill.
30:43All his friends are there.
30:44After,
30:44I must kill
30:45the other nine
30:46who remain.
30:47Do you understand?
30:49If you had
30:50a problem with any
30:50which one,
30:52They were all there.
30:53You're not going to say
30:54I kill him
30:55and then I'm going to sleep
30:56calm.
30:57There,
30:57there,
30:57That's wrong.
30:58All for them.
30:59One for all.
31:00That was their motto.
31:05This brotherhood
31:06within the sea breeze
31:07will not deny
31:09for many years.
31:13As after
31:14this arrest
31:15by Francis Mariani
31:16for the attack
31:17of an armored van.
31:18in Corsica
31:19in December 1983.
31:22Mariani is incarcerated
31:24at Sainte-Claire prison
31:25from Bastia
31:25and does not count
31:27to grow old there.
31:30Him,
31:30He doesn't understand
31:31Let's put him in a cage.
31:32SO,
31:33he was always watching
31:34the means
31:35to get out of it,
31:37to escape.
31:40Francis Mariani
31:41knows he can count on
31:41on the breeze
31:42and in particular
31:44about Richard Casanova.
31:46Again,
31:47Bastia prison,
31:48another escape.
31:50François Mariani
31:52suspected
31:52of an attempt
31:53hold-up
31:54in Balagne.
31:56This is Richard.
31:56It's Casanova
31:57who organized
31:58Francis's escape.
31:59They had bought
31:59a rope
32:00and above all
32:01they had
32:01bribed
32:02the guy from the Mirador
32:03so that he closes
32:03eyes
32:04right at that moment.
32:07But that shows you,
32:08this story,
32:09that's the link
32:09that they had.
32:10Francis and Richard,
32:11They were very close.
32:14when they think back
32:15at the time,
32:17they were the best
32:17friends of the world.
32:20That's what did it
32:20their strength.
32:21Because of this friendship,
32:23it wasn't only
32:24for business.
32:30Now on the run,
32:32Francis Mariani
32:32logically must
32:33to keep a low profile.
32:35But that would be very wrong.
32:36to know the character.
32:39Bank robberies,
32:41You can abstain.
32:42You get your share.
32:44No, no, no, no.
32:45That wasn't it, him.
32:46Him, it was necessary
32:46that he be inside.
32:502 PM this afternoon,
32:51on the Prado,
32:52right in the centre of Marseille.
32:53An armed commando
32:54bursts in
32:55in this agency
32:56from Bonas bank.
32:58Mariani is a bulimic.
33:00of the robbery.
33:01And this time,
33:02It will grow back
33:02its own limitations
33:03but also and above all
33:05those of his accomplices.
33:07Bonas Bank,
33:09they did it
33:09with people from Marseille
33:10who were young
33:11also at the time.
33:12They broke into the safes
33:14who stayed for a long time.
33:18It's Francis Mariani
33:19who leads the commando.
33:20And for him,
33:21The matter is settled.
33:23No way.
33:24to leave the bank.
33:24before all the chests
33:25not be open.
33:27All,
33:28without exception.
33:31Time is ticking
33:32and the accomplices
33:33Mariani
33:33are starting to lose patience.
33:37The people of Marseille
33:37were starting to get scared.
33:39They said
33:39We're leaving.
33:40We're leaving.
33:40We're leaving.
33:41They trembled.
33:44But Francis,
33:45he continued
33:46to break into the coffers.
33:47He did that
33:48because he was afraid
33:49of no one
33:50Fearless.
33:54But in the bank,
33:55the nervousness of the robbers
33:56is at its peak.
33:59They are becoming more threatening.
34:01and the hostages
34:01are terrified.
34:04It began
34:04to shout on one side.
34:06Sir, sir,
34:07after an hour and a quarter,
34:09You see,
34:09there are people
34:09who pee themselves
34:10and everything.
34:12He lifted his balaclava.
34:23Francis Mariani,
34:24He lifted his balaclava.
34:25and he told a witness
34:27hold,
34:27Look at me,
34:28You see my face.
34:33By exposing himself in this way
34:35out of bravado,
34:36Francis Mariani
34:37did he want to show
34:38setting an example for his accomplices.
34:42At any rate,
34:43we remember from this helmet
34:44that it was a very good move
34:45with the key
34:47Over 200 chests opened.
34:53But also with
34:54an eyewitness
34:55who will finally recognize
34:56Francis Mariani
34:57on the index cards
34:58forensic identification.
35:08For the next three months,
35:10Mariani takes advantage
35:11from his native Corsica
35:13and hides there
35:15more or less.
35:18Francis Mariani
35:19was as it was
35:20much in his career
35:21on the run.
35:22We were looking for him
35:25And me,
35:26it's something
35:26which I have always liked
35:27because in fact,
35:28It's the hunt.
35:30The police,
35:30it's a little bit
35:31the manhunt.
35:32Good,
35:33instead of hunting game,
35:34you will track
35:35The bandit, what else.
35:39The police
35:40Mariani are being hunted
35:41several months
35:42and end
35:43by spotting it
35:43in a luxurious
35:44restaurant in Ajaccio
35:45where they dine
35:46in complete serenity
35:47with a friend.
35:56I rush towards him
35:58while a colleague
35:59the pointer.
35:59I handcuff him.
36:02He insulted my boss
36:03by saying to him
36:04"I'm going to make you eat it,"
36:06Mancini,
36:06your question.
36:10At that moment,
36:10the pianist stops
36:11and my boss
36:13signals to the pianist
36:13to continue playing.
36:14And the pianist
36:15continue playing
36:15when
36:16we embark
36:16Francis Mariani.
36:28The prison,
36:29That's part of the game.
36:33It's like everything else,
36:33you are climbing,
36:35we can fall
36:35and there,
36:36It's the same.
36:41To fall,
36:42it's the haunting
36:43robbers.
36:44But there's something even worse.
36:47The robbery
36:48which goes wrong.
36:49A firearm
36:50who suddenly
36:50no longer serves only
36:51frightening.
36:55June 22, 1984.
36:58Within the fiefdom itself
36:59sea breeze
36:59in Bastia,
37:00three men attack
37:01to a bank
37:02in the heart of the city,
37:03the BIAO.
37:07Armed,
37:08his face masked,
37:09individuals,
37:10oblige the cashier
37:11of the bank
37:11to give them
37:12the contents of the cash register.
37:14The alarm has been raised.
37:15the police
37:16arrive very quickly
37:17on site.
37:18They then find themselves
37:19nose to nose
37:20with the robbers
37:20that come out of the bank.
37:22One of them fires.
37:23A police officer collapses
37:25in the corridor.
37:26He is affected
37:26three pistol shots.
37:32one of my officials
37:34was wounded by a marfire
37:36in the back.
37:38It's a matter
37:38which made a huge impression on me,
37:41one of the most important
37:42of my professional life.
37:48This official
37:50injured by the robbers,
37:51It's Pierre Toussaint-Angélini,
37:5343 years old.
37:55The three gunshots
37:56who reached him
37:56on the arm and abdomen
37:57will leave him
37:58disabled for life.
38:03That afternoon,
38:04he is on board
38:05a quarter of the emergency police
38:06when he receives
38:07the order to surrender
38:08at BIAO.
38:10According to initial reports,
38:12a robbery
38:13has just been committed
38:13and the criminals
38:14are believed to be on the run.
38:17We hurried
38:18on site
38:18with a van,
38:19There were three of us.
38:21the driver
38:21he stayed on board
38:25and a colleague died.
38:26We did everything.
38:27There's nothing there.
38:28There's nothing there.
38:29that's to say
38:29we are heading
38:30of the main gate
38:31of the building.
38:37In this issue
38:38emergency services
38:38I came home
38:39and I thought
38:39that the hold-up
38:40It was over.
38:41I learned,
38:43I thought
38:43that there was
38:44that I may have
38:45injured people,
38:45That's why.
38:45that I have returned.
38:51Angelini and his colleague
38:52then find themselves
38:53facing two robbers.
38:55One keeps at bay
38:56a hostage,
38:57the bank teller.
39:01Angelini's colleague
39:02retrace your steps
39:03for, he said,
39:05call for backup.
39:09The colleague
39:10who was with me,
39:12He had to stay.
39:14He left
39:15seek help.
39:16The rescue,
39:16It was total.
39:18He said,
39:18he left
39:19seek help.
39:20But me,
39:20I found myself alone
39:21in the case.
39:23The two robbers
39:24they flee with the hostage.
39:28As he got up,
39:30Angelini hears
39:30a woman's voice
39:31inside
39:32from the bank.
39:34I heard
39:35call for help.
39:36I could hear shouting,
39:38to say no,
39:38Help,
39:38Help.
39:40I'm back home.
39:41I was heading
39:42where is this call coming from?
39:44because there was
39:44stairs
39:45who are going down.
39:58That's it.
39:59that I was injured.
40:01I didn't move anymore.
40:02He shot me in the back.
40:03I understand perfectly.
40:05Because I wonder
40:06what happened to me.
40:06Because at the time,
40:08We couldn't feel anything at all.
40:19outside the bank,
40:21police reinforcements
40:23have just arrived.
40:26A chase
40:27then commits
40:28between the police officers
40:29and the criminals.
40:30One of them takes refuge
40:31in a store
40:32César Street Camping
40:34who, he is quickly surrounded
40:35by the police
40:36is taken to the police station.
40:42The suspect arrested
40:44is a young man
40:45from a good family
40:46from Bastia,
40:47officially unknown
40:48police services.
40:51But quickly,
40:53the investigators
40:53obtain further information.
40:55They were attached
40:56to the sea breeze at the time.
40:58He was a bit young,
40:59But anyway,
40:59They were supported
41:00for the sea breeze.
41:02They were friends
41:02friends
41:03who worked
41:04for the sea breeze.
41:05But at the lowest level,
41:07they were not
41:08at the top of the ladder,
41:09Those ones.
41:10They were Sufis,
41:11It must be put in place without being used.
41:15The boy who is arrested,
41:17it's someone
41:17which is very close
41:18by Richard Casanova.
41:20But him,
41:21it's not really
41:21a thug.
41:23Obviously,
41:24Richard, there.
41:25He is furious
41:26because the break-in
41:27was not well prepared.
41:28It's done
41:29on a whim.
41:30And as a result,
41:31with a seriously injured police officer,
41:33The situation is serious.
41:43Angelini was left
41:44for dead.
41:47There were two or three
41:48doctors who were there.
41:50The diagnosis was
41:52one of the most severe.
41:54So, basically,
41:55I was advised
41:56to go and warn the family.
41:59And it was a moment
42:01difficult,
42:01very difficult.
42:03But fortunately
42:04for Commissioner Dragacci,
42:06the investigation is progressing
42:07at full speed.
42:08All the more so
42:09than another robber
42:10has been formally
42:11identified
42:12during his escape
42:13by a police officer.
42:16So, it was
42:17A straightforward matter.
42:19Even if there were,
42:21Blood had been shed.
42:22It's a straightforward matter.
42:24I even
42:24the deposition
42:25of a police officer
42:27who is a neighbor
42:28from one of the authors
42:29or finally,
42:30who knows
42:31the authors' family
42:32and who comes
42:33who testifies
42:34saying
42:35I, view, mention, etc.
42:37So, it's a link
42:38certain,
42:39a piece of evidence,
42:40as they say
42:42place.
42:45Optimism
42:46de Dragacci
42:47It falls very quickly.
42:49That same evening,
42:50the police witness
42:52come back and see
42:52the commissioner.
42:54He wanted to withdraw
42:56his deposition
42:58that along the way,
43:00he must have,
43:01he had been asked
43:02to reflect
43:03to what he had said
43:05or certainly
43:05the thugs.
43:07Because he didn't tell me,
43:09The policeman didn't tell me.
43:10In any case,
43:10what I did,
43:11I had it opened
43:13the doors wide open
43:14he must have been
43:1510pm, 11pm,
43:16and I took it out
43:17by kicking his backside,
43:18even though it's prohibited
43:20by law.
43:23at the Bastia police station,
43:25the interrogation
43:25of the young robber
43:26continues.
43:29Exasperated,
43:30the police
43:30hear well
43:31progress
43:32the investigation.
43:34The young man,
43:34even if it's not him
43:35who shot the police officer,
43:37at their home,
43:37there's a guy
43:37between life and death,
43:39So the logical next step,
43:40that's what the young man
43:41ends up naked
43:43with handcuffs.
43:48They are arguing
43:49to strike,
43:49What.
43:53SO,
43:54that's normal
43:55that they have
43:55this reaction.
43:59The breeze,
44:00They have informants
44:01everywhere,
44:02even at the police station,
44:04so that
44:04sedates immediately.
44:09Around midnight,
44:101 a.m.,
44:11I received
44:11a phone call
44:12anonymous
44:13saying
44:13that someone
44:14wanted to complete
44:16our information
44:17for development
44:18useful for the investigation.
44:20Good,
44:21obviously,
44:21I couldn't
44:22to skip
44:25regarding this appeal,
44:26be it
44:27browse
44:28to police housing projects.
44:29The phone call,
44:30This is Richard.
44:31but for the appier,
44:32He didn't tell her,
44:33he just told him
44:33that there is information,
44:34he sets a date
44:35on Saint-Nicolas Square.
44:40So I was
44:41in the vicinity
44:42from Place Saint-Nicolas,
44:44I fell
44:44on a young man
44:46rather style
44:47puppy,
44:48small-time crook
44:49which catches my attention
44:51with authority,
44:54or at least,
44:55he was trying
44:56to have
44:57to explain
44:59that it was not necessary
44:59of a tough interrogation,
45:01as if it were
45:02the practice
45:03of the police.
45:05And otherwise,
45:06I was going to have
45:08to be held accountable
45:08etc.
45:10It was
45:12Richard Casanova.
45:19He told him
45:19"If you continue
45:20to hit him,
45:21bulk,
45:21I'm going after your guys
45:23and I insist on it
45:23responsible,
45:24So that's all in all,
45:25What. "
45:27It was a threat.
45:28obviously,
45:29saying to me
45:30"If they confess
45:32on torture
45:33or whatever,
45:34So if you want,
45:35warn me
45:36"Retaliation."
45:39He didn't summon me.
45:40to congratulate me,
45:41anyway.
45:42Well, obviously,
45:43I drove
45:45that idiot
45:46and I continued
45:48to do
45:48what I had to do.
45:53In the premises
45:54of the central police station
45:55from Bastia,
45:55Yet,
45:56it seems that the threats
45:57have found
45:58a certain echo.
46:00They stopped
46:01to hit him,
46:02it was to make them search
46:03anyway.
46:18The investigation allows
46:19to find
46:20and to stop
46:21the other two accomplices.
46:25The trial will not take place
46:26in Corsica,
46:27but on the continent,
46:28in Grenoble.
46:31Grenoble,
46:32This morning,
46:33enhanced security
46:34at the courthouse.
46:36Everywhere on the rooftops,
46:37snipers
46:38came specially
46:39for the audiences.
46:40The reason for this
46:41high surveillance,
46:42the fear of a trial
46:43under the influence.
46:47A perfectly legitimate fear.
46:49because since the arrest,
46:51The Breeze has worked
46:52in the shadows
46:52and found the witnesses.
46:56Result,
46:57a bank employee
46:58who had seen the face
46:59of one of the robbers
47:00is no longer certain
47:01to acknowledge it.
47:03A cashier
47:04having received
47:04a blow with the butt of the rifle
47:05face
47:06will finally affirm
47:07that she bumped into
47:08all alone
47:09on a cabinet
47:10hell.
47:12Let's say that people,
47:13There are some who are afraid
47:14to speak.
47:16They are afraid.
47:17I don't even want to
47:18people's affairs
47:19And I'm not speaking.
47:20That's all.
47:21They manage.
47:23The witness,
47:24except for her skin.
47:25Of course,
47:26except for her skin.
47:27where he doesn't want
47:28to be, how should I put it,
47:30harassed
47:31for years,
47:33years,
47:34or even be shot down.
47:36I don't know.
47:37Fear is human.
47:41Corsican Affair
47:42for a juror from Grenoble,
47:43the three young men
47:44are accused
47:45robbery with violence
47:46and for one of them
47:47attempted murder.
47:48They risk
47:4920 years old
47:49of confinement
47:50to life imprisonment.
47:52The sentences
47:53will of course
47:54lighter
47:55than announced.
47:58The robber
47:59caught red-handed
48:00as well as one of his accomplices
48:01are condemned
48:02at six years old
48:02of imprisonment.
48:05The third robber,
48:07who had been recognized
48:08by a police officer
48:09is suspected
48:10for having fired
48:11in the back
48:11by Pierre Toussaint-Angélini.
48:14But in the absence
48:15from this crucial testimony,
48:17it is simply
48:18acquitted.
48:21He is acquitted.
48:22It is no longer sold.
48:25He didn't know
48:26As he wishes.
48:29I found him
48:31once
48:32to go up the boulevard.
48:34My wife told me
48:35"Don't go back,
48:36He goes down.
48:37I said
48:37“I’m not turning around,
48:39"I'm afraid of him."
48:40He was going down
48:41with a dendrocyte
48:42and I was watching him
48:43to lower one's eyes.
48:45And that I told him
48:46that I wasn't going to
48:47jump on him.
48:48He is strangled.
48:54The robbery case
48:55BIAO failure
48:56does not slow down at all
48:57criminal activities
48:58of the breeze.
48:59Assessment of the damage
49:00that the police
49:00their troops
49:01robberies
49:02banks
49:03follow one another
49:03at a sustained pace
49:04until the end
49:05from the 80s.
49:08The godfathers
49:08of the Bastia clan
49:09they also borrow each other
49:10to transport
49:10of funds,
49:11sometimes with complicity
49:13conveyors
49:13or even
49:15with a bazooka.
49:16To dismantle
49:17this team,
49:17the judicial flight
49:18had to mobilize
49:19nearly 120 tonnes.
49:20From the prison
49:21where he is incarcerated,
49:22Francis Mariani
49:23don't miss anything
49:24of the show
49:25and rejoices
49:28because even
49:29temporarily
49:30inactive,
49:31he knows
49:32that he will touch
49:32his share.
49:38Here,
49:38Mariani
49:39is like
49:39at his home,
49:40then he takes
49:41his pain
49:41With patience.
49:45Francis Mariani,
49:46I knew him
49:47in prison.
49:49He was a gentleman,
49:50a godfather.
49:52Legend had

49:55the hand like this
49:56around the neck
49:58With affection,

50:11contravene
50:12at orders
50:12he said
50:13to his word.
50:20As soon as he arrived,
50:22he caught
50:23the director
50:24and was watching him
50:24a leader.
50:25He said
50:26attention,

51:01per week
51:01in the shower.
51:03That's it.
51:03SO.
