 Raynald Desjardins | Raynald Desjardins squeezed in his daughter’s wedding reception between surviving an attempt on his life and plotting to kill Mafioso Salvatore Montagna. The Oct. 1, 2011 nuptials represented a brief lull for Desjardins while he was being hunted — someone had tried to shoot him in Laval two weeks earlier — and was plotting with others to murder Montagna, shot to death Nov. 24, 2011. Evidence unearthed by police in the investigation into Montagna’s murder depicts the wedding reception as a social gathering for Desjardins’s underworld associates. |  Vanessa Desjardins covers her face April 2, 2013. |
