Jean-François executed his own brutal subordinate Jeannot to control the insurgency

Evidence

One day, as Gros and the remainder of the prisoners awaited their promised execution (they were, apparently, to be roasted alive), they heard shots in the distance, and mounted troops led by Jean-François, who was Jeannot’s superior, arrived in the camp. He arrested Jeannot and, after a quick military trial, had him tied to a tree and shot. Jean-François promised the white prisoners that their tortures were over and that they would be treated humanely from then on. — Dubois, Laurent, Avengers of the New World_ The Story of…, 418
