He has stolen a religious relic from a church in France, in direct contravention of the KIng's edict against looting. This is revealed by Pistol in Act 3 Sc 6 as he seeks to get Fluellen to intercede for his friend.
"Pistol. Fortune is Bardolph's foe, and frowns on him;
For he hath stolen a pax, and hanged must a' be:
A damned death!
Let gallows gape for dog; let man go free
And let not hemp his wind-pipe suffocate: 1505
But Exeter hath given the doom of death
For pax of little price.
Therefore, go speak: the duke will hear thy voice:
And let not Bardolph's vital thread be cut
With edge of penny cord and vile reproach: 1510
Speak, captain, for his life, and I will thee requite."
Henry's response in unequivocal:
"Henry V. We would have all such offenders so cut off: and we
give express charge, that in our marches through the
country, there be nothing compelled from the
villages, nothing taken but paid for, none of the 1575
French upbraided or abused in disdainful language;
for when lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the
gentler gamester is the soonest winner."

Can you be sentenced twice for 1 crime 20 years apart?
Due to double jeopardy you can't be sentenced for the same crime more than once. Double jeopardy law states you can't be tried for the same crime if there was an aquittal verdict. You can be tried for the same crime more than once if the first trial ended in a hung jury or there was a mistrial. So if you were sentenced once that means you were found guilty the first time. The only exception to this would be if the first verdict was overturned on appeal and the judge grants a new trial. If you are found guilty again you would have a new sentencing. But, there would have to be new evidence for the judge to overturn the first verdict.
