Giordano was killed while he was in the passenger seat of a vehicle outside a gym in Laval where he and his girlfriend were members. “What is the link between these four murders? That is what we will show you in the coming weeks, in particular the participation of the accused, Jonathan Massari, in the goal to kill those four people for the benefit of Italian organized crime,” Cordeau said.
