HOA office manager accused of stealing more than $30K from Lakewood Forest Homeowners Association– A former office manager for the Lakewood Forest Homeowners Association is facing felony theft charges after investigators say she used HOA funds for personal expenses totaling more than $30,000.
According to the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman’s Office, deputies responded to a theft call on Sept. 28 at 12415 Louetta Road. Investigators say complainants reported that Shiesha Sparrow had worked as an office manager for the Lakewood Forest HOA for more than a year and had been entrusted with access to association credit cards. During the investigation, deputies allege Sparrow used those HOA credit cards to make unauthorized purchases for personal benefit.
Authorities say the transactions included purchases and payments made at businesses such as Walmart, Amazon, Cash App, Uber and DoorDash, along with payments for personal bills. After what officials described as an extensive investigation, deputies filed a third-degree felony charge of aggregate theft, alleging the amount stolen was more than $30,000 but less than $150,000. Sparrow was booked into the Harris County Jail and later released after posting a $20,000 bond, according to Constable Herman’s Office.
Her bond was set through the 179th District Court.
