This is the best summary I could come up with:
Nicolas Galy, 40, was struck in the air moments after jumping from the aircraft in July 2018.
The pilot, who has not been named, was found guilty on Tuesday of involuntary manslaughter and given a suspended sentence by Montauban criminal court.
According to Le Parisien, immediately after the drop, the pilot of the aircraft began its descent towards the aerodrome tarmac.
Citing a hearing on 19 September, the lawyer for the victim’s relatives, Emmanuelle Franck, deplored “a lot of recklessness or negligence”.
The president of the court in south-west France also pointed out a lack of communication between the victim and the pilot.
Since the incident, security measures have been strengthened and briefings have become obligatory, the report in Le Parisien added.
