What a life these guys live. It'd be interesting to hear more about the psychological toll these guys undertake. This informant seems to have some serious issues and La Source mentioned a little bit about what Andrea Scoppa was going through during their interviews.

I have the same issue with my computer, but you can watch everytime you want with your smartphone ;)

Translated article with google :

The former mafia hitman who collaborated with the police in the investigation into the murders of Vincenzo and Giuseppe Falduto shared a final meal with them before killing them in the garage of Marie-Josée Viau's property and Guy Dion, in Saint-Jude, June 30, 2016.

This is what an investigator from the Sûreté du Québec, Patrick Pinard, who was co-controller of this former hired killer turned mole for the police, explained Friday at the jury trial of Marie-Josée Viau and Guy Dion, accused of conspiracy and participation in the murders of the two Falduto brothers.

According to the prosecution theory, it was this hitman, who was accompanied by another individual nicknamed Brad Pitt, who killed the brothers with a gun. Subsequently, Marie-Josée Viau and Guy Dion would have burned the bodies in the open for hours, threw the ashes in a river and removed all traces of the crime.

It was only two and a half years later that the hitman - whose identity is covered by a publication ban - contacted the police and became a Civilian Undercover Agent (ACI), to help investigators. of the SQ to elucidate the crime and other murders committed within the Mafia.

Wearing audio and video recording devices, he took part in several infiltration scenarios in the summer of 2019, including five involving Marie-Josée Viau and Guy Dion, and he recorded them without their knowledge.

His collaboration with the police began in January 2019 and on the 30th of that month he accompanied the investigators in a car and pointed out to them the house of the Viau and Dion couple as the place where he had killed the Faldutos.

“To get there, we took the Saint-Hyacinthe exit then Boulevard Laframboise. He showed us a restaurant where he ate on the day of the murder, with the two brothers, ”investigator Pinard said.

Fear of being the sprinkler watered

Moreover, the hitman feared, throughout his collaboration with investigators, that he would be arrested and charged at the end of the investigation. He even suspected the police were involving him in undercover scenarios to corner him.

Investigator Patrick Pinard indicated that throughout the investigation - which the police believed would last two months, but which lasted nine - the ACI imagined that the bloodhounds were going to arrest him in the end of his collaboration even though they had assured him that his confession and the evidence accumulated during the investigation would not be held against him, and that independently gathered evidence was needed for him to be arrested and charged murders.

“Indeed, many times [ACI] had something of a fear despite the promise made at the beginning. It happened a few times that he thought about ways that some people might have taken to "trap" him. He even thought that Ms. Viau could have recorded it without his knowledge and gone to the police. Sometimes he thought that we too were working against him, "said investigator Pinard.

The latter also confirmed that on August 27, 2019, the ACI, who was then angry, sent dozens of text messages to its controllers accusing them of doing reverse infiltration (Mister Big) scenarios, that is, that is to say that it is he who would have been in reality the targeted subject. "We didn't do that," added the witness.

Investigator Pinard also said that until the end of the investigation, the ACI believed he would never be paid for his services. He was also impatient and eager for the investigation to end, so that he could then press charges against people who allegedly sexually assaulted him.

The trial resumes before the jury on Monday afternoon.

Oh I wasn't aware of that, I never had a problem. Are you able to open and translate them on your phone like Motorfab mentioned? Let me know though, if not, I'll work on having them posted here, or maybe just make a big post mentioning significant info that's been coming out of the trial.

Another article on the subject. Apparently a Hells Angel may have been at the cafe at the time of the attempted murder.

Should post that over in the Montreal thread and keep this about the trial so we aren't mixing it all up.
