... buttocks! In 1818, while Vidocq was the head of the Security in Paris, for weeks, the same scenario was repeated constantly: women came to testify that while they were walking peacefully in the streets of Paris, they felt everything. sudden severe pain in the hip or buttocks. They scream and see a man running away. It is now established, "a serial picker" rages in the streets of Paris! An anecdote to be found among many others in "Amour, Gloire et ratés by Guillaume Dessaix, published by Editions Buchet Chastel."
