In the early days of the French Revolution, le Peletier called for the abolishment of the death penalty, but in 1793 he had the deciding 361st vote in the execution trial of King Louis XVI of France. François-Thomas Germain, the Templar Grand Master, was pleased with his decision and told him that he would look forward to the end of tyranny.

However, the Assassin Arno Dorian killed le Peletier in Palais des Tuileries, the day before the execution of the King. He found out about Marie Lévesque's plot to steal bread from the populace, and that it was connected with the King's execution. The Templars had planned to discredit the King in the eyes of the citizens, so that his execution would be a measure of justice for the grain and bread the monarchy supposedly hoarded.
