How to read this record
Eight-year imposed sentence; six victims include four romantic partners, so total scope mixed. Prior offending does not prove repeat targeting of one victim.

Connected reporting
Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.
Fraudes amoureuses : huit ans de prison réclamés contre Serge Rivard - Le Canada Français
Both excerpts identify Serge Rivard, age 62, and four women in romantic relationships. The later report states a sentence was imposed after the earlier request.
This record is linked back to earlier reporting.
L’arnaqueur amoureux Serge Rivard condamné à huit ans de détention
Named repeat offender and reported eight-year sentence match. One snippet mentions four women; the longer report distinguishes six victims, including four women. This is compatible but remains attributed reporting.
