A Paris court sentenced Thomas M, a former silverware keeper at the presidential palace, to two years for stealing luxury items valued at nearly €400,000. He received a one-year electronic tag and a €10,000 fine. His partner, Damien G, also received a two-year sentence with an electronic tag. The couple sold stolen items online, profiting around €15,000. A third defendant, Ghislain M, received a one-year suspended sentence.
