Activist Sharon Logan, of Paw Protectors, Inc., is a six-time financial felon. Don't be her next victim.

Sharon Jean Logan, a freelance bookkeeper who runs the nonprofit Paw Protectors, has a lengthy history of stealing from those close to her, including employers. The admitted sometime-prostitute is also big on harassment and false accusations (she was even prosecuted for a false rape claim against an ex), for which at least five men have been granted restraining orders against her. Logan has 9 theft or embezzlement convictions (including 6 felonies) ranging from 1999 through 2017. She owes more than $600,000 of court-ordered victim restitution (counting interest), and is not paying it — although she boasts on social media about her upscale tastes and travels. Unlike reformed felons, Logan is dishonest about her bad history. The repeat embezzler recently used a false resume to trick a law firm into hiring her to handle its money – and, when she was fired for alleged incompetence and dishonesty, unsuccessfully claimed harassment and discrimination. She's done that more than once. If you're feeling sorry for Logan that we're blasting her like this, take a look at what she does on social media to anyone who displeases her.

The astounding deadbeatery of Sharon Logan: $536,190.80 in unpaid court-ordered victim restitution.

Five-time financial felon and aspiring professional protester Sharon Logan owes $536,190.80 in court-ordered criminal restitution, counting 10 percent simple interest, for multiple theft convictions spanning 1999 through 2017. She owes at least an additional six figures in civil judgments, including taxes, unpaid loans, and unemployment benefit overpayments. (See bottom of post for documents and an interest calculation as of September 4, 2022.)

Logan’s capers, including her social media posts about her travels and other pricey good times, have got us amazed at how much money a convicted criminal can owe to victims in California without it seeming to impact their lifestyle. Debt collection is a difficult process, and many creditors simply don’t bother.

We’ve yet to see any wage garnishments, bank levies, or judgment debtor examinations taken against Logan by any of the victims. Nor do we see any evidence she’s making voluntary payments. We found one payment, ever, collected by a victim — $2,800 to the two small companies she was convicted of felony grand theft against in 2017. We don’t know if was made voluntarily, or seized. (Logan reads our Page, and we’ve said before she’s welcome to comment, DM us, or email us at trujillotinamarie@gmail.com if she’s got different information.)

If you evade creditors long enough, as Logan apparently has, some debt disappears after 10 years. Logan owes another six figures in private, civil debt depending on how you count (more on that below). Out of 6 crime victims owed restitution and at least 7 civil court judgments, we’ve found only two creditors who’ve even attempted to garnish her wages. Both failed to get anything.

The most recent was in the case of David C.F., who loaned Logan money in 2004 to buy a car and got stiffed. With interest, that debt is up to $17,747.76. We posted on August 5 and 6 on our Facebook Page about how the creditor tried to serve a wage garnishment order in December 2021 at a seafood delivery place they thought Logan worked at. No luck.

The last try before that was nearly two decades ago, by Mohawk Management Corporation in case COC012540, one of the several landlords who have evicted Logan over the years. They tried to serve a wage garnishment order in 2006 at a skate shop they thought she worked at in Rancho Palos Verdes. Goose egg for them. It doesn’t appear they renewed their judgment at the 10-year mark, so they can’t collect on it now.

If you’re tempted to feel sorry for Logan for being so broke, consider that her lifestyle doesn’t seem to reflect it. She’s somehow found money to travel around the country multiple times during the last couple years, both by plane and by car. She’s stayed in hotels, and bragged on Facebook about going to nice restaurants. She portrays herself as having upscale tastes.

And if you feel bad for her because we’re posting her personal financial troubles, well … first take a look at what she’s been posting about other people. She was sneering online about people’s legal and money troubles long before we started doing the same to her.

Fortunately for Logan’s victims, the 10-year civil judgment expiration doesn’t apply to criminal restitution. But Logan still probably caught a $100,000 break regarding her $250,000 embezzlement from Hanover Commercial Services, Inc. By resisting and insisting, Logan got the victim to agree to only a $150,000 criminal restitution order. (See the blog to view the DA’s letter explaining this.) The victim still got a $250,000 civil judgment in 2001 against Logan in the related civil suit — but it doesn’t look as if they renewed it. So, that $100,000 went goodbye for good.

Now, we still think that, morally, Logan *owes* that $100,000. But it’s not legally enforceable.

Another way deadbeats luck out is when their creditors die. The late Mission Viejo attorney Brady Adam Price (who also claimed Logan stole $7,500 from him, see related photo album, Information from the late Mission Viejo Attorney Brady Adam Price) got a $3,000 judgment against her for an unpaid personal loan in March, 2013. That’s worth about $5,700 now with interest. But Mr. Price died tragically and unexpectedly in 2015. His judgment will expire in March of next year unless his heirs renew it before then.

We’ve been thinking: Maybe we could talk Mr. Price’s heirs into assigning Logan’s debt to us. Then, we could show up at one of Logan’s protests or court hearings and serve her, and make her undergo a judgment debtor examination. (Like Erika Girardi.)

Logan would have to answer all our questions under oath about her lifestyle, and how she funds it. We’d share the results here, of course. We can even ask if she really has that BA in Accounting she claims on LinkedIn. Who wants to make a bet she doesn’t?
