He was quickly dubbed the “HRD killer”. Gabriel Fortin’s trial opens Tuesday, June 13 in Valence. He is suspected of having killed two of his former directors of human resources, as well as a civil servant from Pôle Emploi.

He is nicknamed the “HRD killer”. From Tuesday June 13, Gabriel Fortin will be tried at the Assizes of Valence (Drôme), more than two years after his arrest. He then has just murdered three women: the first of his victims is called Estelle Luce. 15 years before, this director of human resources notified the alleged killer of her dismissal. Over three days, the murderous journey follows the thread of its murderous failures. In Valence (Drôme), he killed a counselor in his Pôle emploi agency. He doesn’t even know her though.

A mute defendant

Her husband wants justice. “I am asking the courts for irreducible life imprisonment (…) he killed three women in cold blood”, he says. The latest victim is another HRD from a company from which Gabriel Fortin was fired. He then fled before being arrested. To date, the accused has remained silent and has not spoken.
