Geissens Fortify Saint-Tropez Villa After June Home Invasion

The family turns to RTL to document the attack, with the case unresolved despite DNA evidence.

Overview

  • Surveillance video shows four masked intruders entering through a terrace door, threatening the couple and assaulting Carmen and Robert.
  • Robert says a ruse—calling out for the housekeeper near the cellar stairs—prompted the attackers to flee.
  • Two specials titled "Die Geissens Spezial: Der Überfall" are streaming on RTL+ and are slated to air on RTL ZWEI on January 5 at 20:15.
  • In response, the estate now features more cameras, a new fence with barbed wire, lasers, panic buttons, spikes on the gate and on-site bodyguards.
  • A new alarm system recently triggered a false alert caused by a gardener, and daughter Davina criticized the look as "really like a prison," while police report no arrests despite DNA lifted from a wine bottle.
