Peter Giraud (12 November 1978 - 2008) was a French criminal who was affiliated with the Albanian crime boss Marko Hoxha's human trafficking operation in Paris during the 2000s. Giraud was employed as a "spotter", identifying traveling young women as targets as they landed at the airport in Paris, and using his youthful, handsome looks and the expensive price of taxi cabs to seduce women into sharing a cab ride with him. He would thus tail the women to their apartments and gather information through casual conversation, often inviting them to a nonexistent party, finding out if they would be staying alone, and finding out what their address was. Once he did so, he would report his findings to the Albanians, who would then kidnap the women, drug them, and force them to become prostitutes. Two of Giraud's victims were two American tourists from California, the 17-year-old Kim Mills and her 19-year-old friend Amanda, whom he had kidnapped after following them to Amanda's cousins' apartment and finding out that Amanda's cousins were in Spain at the time. Mills' father Bryan Mills flew to Paris on hearing of his daughter's kidnapping and identified Peter from his reflection on a photo Peter had taken with Kim's phone, and he caught Peter in the act of seducing another tourist at the airport. He attempted to interrogate Peter in a taxi cab, only for Peter's associate Omar Faye to drag Mills from the car. Mills took down Faye and pursued Giraud onto the highway. Giraud jumped from an overpass onto a street below, where he was struck and killed by a tractor-trailor as he walked onto the road.
