Prolific retail thief linked to dozens of crimes across Bay Area sentenced

A Sonoma County retail theft case ballooned into a Bay Area-wide investigation that led to a Richmond man’s sentencing this month to a five-year prison term, prosecutors announced.

Shawn Naputi, 42, was sentenced Jan. 7 in Sonoma County Superior Court after he pleaded no contest on Nov. 12 to six of 58 counts levied by the Sonoma County District Attorney’s Office. The vast majority of those 58 counts are associated retail thefts across the Bay Area and Sacramento.
