The Mesrine saga concludes. Now back in France, outlaw Mesrine is finally in police custody and facing justice for his crimes. After escaping a courtroom and kidnapping the judge at gunpoint, Mesrine is declared Public Enemy No. 1 and is eventually sentenced to a maximum-security prison, where he writes his memoirs, establishing himself as a household name and the anti-hero across France.
