Two members of a retail theft ring that hit several Bay Area Home Depot stores repeatedly were set to be sentenced Wednesday in Santa Clara County court.
Law enforcement and district attorney offices across California likely are watching the case closely as it tests a new state law allowing swifter prosecution and harsher penalties for retail theft rings.
The two men set to be sentenced in San Jose were members of a crew that hit 30 Home Depot stores in 11 counties more than 200 times over a span of four months.
