Jean-Claude Romand is one of the most popular and richest Spree Killer who was born on February 11, 1954 in Lons-le-Saunier, Lons-le- Saunier, France. Jean-Claude Romand (born 11 February 1954) is a French spree killer and impostor who pretended to be a medical doctor for 18 years before killing his wife, children, and his parents when he was about to be exposed.

French author Emmanuel Carrère entered into correspondence with imprisoned Romand to write a book, published in 2000, L’Adversaire (The Adversary), based on the case. Nicole Garcia directed a movie, L’Adversaire (2002), based on the book; actor Daniel Auteuil played the part of Romand (renamed Jean-Marc Faure in the film). Two other movies were loosely based on Romand’s life: the French L’Emploi du temps (2001) (English title: Time Out) and the Spanish La vida de nadie [es] (English title: Nobody’s Life). Romand’s deception also formed the basis of the “Subterraneans” episode of the BBC crime drama Waking The Dead (third episode of the fifth season in 2005). The episode 16 (season 1) “Phantom” of Law & Order: Criminal Intent is also constructed around this story.

Romand’s trial began on 25 June 1996. On 6 July 1996 Romand was sentenced to life imprisonment with no possibility of parole for 22 years; he became eligible for parole in 2015. The appeals court in Bourges granted Romand a parole in 2019 after being imprisoned for 26 years. Romand is reputed to suffer from narcissistic personality disorder.
