Under the occupation, Francis André dit Gueule "Twisted" engaged with his gang in all kinds of activities: murders, kidnappings, torture, blackmail, extortion of funds, black market and racketeer. The one who became the leader of the French Gestapo in Lyon, has thus amassed a considerable loot, slaughtering without remorse many resistance fighters. Francis André was sentenced to death in January 1946.

Under the Occupation, mobsters like Pierre Loutrel, known as Pierrot the Fool, took advantage of the chaos to establish themselves as the godfathers of collaboration. With his gang of Tractions before, he multiplied thefts, extortion and murders, collaborating with the Gestapo before joining the Resistance by pure opportunism in 1944. This bloody journey illustrates the terror of these criminals without faith or law.
