Biography[]

Patrice Saint-Clair was born in Geneva, Switzerland on 11 April 1962, and he later moved to Paris, France, settling on 26 Rue St. Louis en l'Ile. He fathered two sons and a daughter, and he became the ringleader of a sex trafficking ring based in Paris, running a business with the strict rules of "no refunds, no returns, no discounts, no buybacks; all sales are final." He held sex slave auctions in a secret room of his mansion, obtaining his "merchandise" from the Albanian Topoje Gang. In 2008, former CIA operative Bryan Mills hunted down the kidnappers of his daughter Kim Mills, forcing Ali Naciri to buy Kim at Saint-Clair's auction. However, Saint-Clair had Mills knocked-out and interrogated, and, after Mills revealed that he wanted his daughter back, Saint-Clair stoically told him of the rules of his business before ordering his guards to quietly kill Mills so as to not interrupt the party. However, Mills broke free and killed or knocked out the guards, and he shot another guard whom Saint-Clair had sent into the room to investigate the commotion. Mills then cornered Saint-Clair in an elevator, where he shot him three times and forced him to reveal that Kim had been taken to a boat by the quay. Saint-Clair then told Mills that it was all business and not personal, but Mills said that it was all personal to him, and he shot Saint-Clair five more times, killing him. Saint-Clair's body was discovered by his guests when the elevator doors opened on the floor of the party.
