"You should feel honored. These days, the Bastille is reserved for madmen, deviants, and traitors."

Bernard Laroche (born c. 1771[1]) was a French counterfeiter imprisoned in the Bastille.

Biography

Laroche was imprisoned along with fellow counterfeiters Jean Antoine Pujade, Jean Béchade and Jean de la Corrège[2] in January 1787.[1]

By May 1789, Laroche shared his cell with Arno Dorian and the Assassin Pierre Bellec. As Bellec duelled Arno, Laroche and the other prisoners would spectate, betting on both constestants.[3] Following the Storming of the Bastille in July of that year, Laroche and the counterfeiters were freed. However, almost immediately after, they were imprisoned at Bicêtre.[2]
