1-Man Crime Spree Sentencing Wednesday

The Washington, DC, man responsible for a one-man commercial crime spree in Bethesda and Rockville earlier this year will be sentenced at 10 a.m. Wednesday at the Montgomery County Circuit Court in Rockville, according to the Montgomery County's state's attorney's office.

Andre Antonio Henry's crime spree lasted from Jan. 28 to April 5, during which he systematically burglarized many Bethesda businesses (mostly office suites), stealing credit cards and using them for fraudulent purchasing. He was charged with eight burglaries, and pleaded guilty to three of them. He also was charged with numerous counts of credit card theft and identity fraud, according to the Montgomery County's state's attorney's office.

Henry left a trail of clues behind him. In one case, Henry left fingerprints at the crime scene. In another, some of the stolen goods were recovered at the house where he was staying. In another case, grainy surveillance video showed what appeared to be Henry committing the crime, and shortly after that, Henry was seen shopping with the victim's credit card at a local mall. Some of the items from that burglary also were found at the house where he was staying, according to the Montgomery County's state's attorney's office.

Also, Henry left his own documents for a separate court appointment at one of the crime scenes, the office added.

Henry was arrested in Prince George's County on May 9, Patch reported.

Police said that he had used a flathead screwdriver to force open the entries into the office suites that he burgled.

The burgled office suites were at the following addresses, county police reported last May:

• 11140 Rockville Pike, Rockville, suites 300 and 340
• 6110 Executive Blvd., Rockville, suites 800, 300 and 310 (attempted)
