A man who fatally shot three women he accused of ruining his career has been sentenced to life imprisonment in France.
Gabriel Fortin, 48, was given the maximum sentence for murder and attempted murder by a court in the city of Valence on Wednesday.
This means he will spend up to 22 years behind bars.
Fortin, who was dubbed the "HR killer", was arrested in 2021 - days after the women were shot dead.
Speaking to reporters following the verdict, the lawyer for the family of Géraldine Caclin, one of the victims, told the AFP news agency that Fortin's "only response to life's failures, and we've all experienced them, was to organise this crime."
Bertrand Meichel, the sole survivor of the attacks, was also present at the court and questioned the length of time Fortin would spend behind bars.
"When the death penalty was abolished in 1981, we were promised life imprisonment," he said.
"Today, the law limits life imprisonment to 22 years, and the court will have no choice but to comply."
The first killing happened on 26 January 2021 in the Alsace region of eastern France. Human resources manager Estelle Luce was shot in the head in her company car park after work.
