"Are you letting me go? Thank you, Cesare. You will not regret–"
―Francesco's last words before being strangled by Micheletto Corella, 1503.[src]

Francesco Troche (1459 – 1503) was the Pope's chamberlain and a personal friend of Cesare Borgia.

In 1503, Francesco told his older brother, Egidio Troche, about Cesare's intentions for Romagna. Subsequently, Egidio then sent a letter to the Venetian ambassador, warning him and hoping to prevent Cesare from conquering Romagna. However, one of his letters was intercepted by Cesare's men.[1]

When Cesare discovered this, he believed Francesco to be a traitor and had Micheletto Corella strangle him to death at the Porta Praenestina. His body was later dumped into the Tiber river.[1]

Trivia

  • Historically, there are disputes over whether Francesco Troche threw himself overboard a boat to drown in an act of suicide, or if he was strangled in a prison when the boat arrived in Rome.
  • Despite being born the same year as Ezio, Francesco looks significantly older.
