A 46-year-old Brentwood woman was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison on Wednesday for embezzling $300,000 from investors who thought they were funding a start-up restaurant in Los Banos, according to Merced County District Attorney's Office. Robin Ruth Recla received the maximum penalty allowable under current state law for felony embezzlement by Superior Court Judge David W. Moranda. Recla was also found guilty of filing a false tax return for not reporting the embezzled money as income to the California Tax Franchise Board.
