Besides guarding the Doge outside the Palazzo, the Corazzieri carry out police and investigative functions in Venezia, and in severe cases, the Republic, in relation to murder; criminal conspiracy; crimes against the State; blood crimes; forbidden port; crimes against the people. In short, their powers are extended to include theft, bigamy, carnal crimes of slaves, firearms, assaults, homelessness, rape, night dances, desertion from galleys, non-payment of rents, sorcery, and crimes against property, honor, and good habit, etc.
