Fox News
The reputed leader of an international jewelry heist ring that netted more than $13 million in “sophisticated” capers from Manhattan to Europe over more than a decade was sentenced to eight years in prison Thursday.
During the hearing, prosecutors painted Pejcinovic as a serial thief who led a team of calculated burglars that cased jewelry stores and broke into safes with power tools and sledgehammers during their robbery spree from 2006 to 2017.
"For years this burglary crew committed heist after heist after heist without getting caught," Assistant US Attorney Andrew Chan said at the hearing.
