Solano County Superior Court proceedings have been paused again for a 51-year-old Suisun City woman who is accused of multiple fraud charges connected to an attempt to obtain an $8 million loan to buy a Fairfield winery, two additional attempts to obtain multimillion-dollar loans, and attempts to buy a jet plane and to lease a Rolls Royce.
Sharon N. Dailey initially was scheduled to face a Jan. 3 preliminary hearing, but, court records show, Judge Robert Bowers instead had ordered her to return at 8:30 a.m. Thursday for a readiness conference and a preliminary hearing setting in Department 15 in the Justice Center in Fairfield.
Online records, however, show she was in court on Wednesday, when Bowers ordered her to return for the same matters at 8:30 a.m. March 10.
Dailey, who remains in custody at the Claybank Detention Facility in Fairfield, was arrested Nov. 4 on suspicion of 17 felonies involving six different fraud schemes. She was arraigned the next day in a Fairfield courtroom.
According to a press statement from the Solano County District Attorney’s Office, Dailey was charged with eight counts of identity theft; four counts of making false financial statements to obtain a loan; two counts of mortgage foreclosure consultant fraud; one count of grand theft; one count of passing a false check in the amount of $500,000; and one count of mortgage fraud.
Dailey also was charged with the enhancement of “committing a pattern of related felony conduct,” District Attorney Krishna Abrams noted in the prepared statement.
Specifically, she added, the charges are related to the following schemes: Besides the $8 million loan to buy a Fairfield winery, a scheme involving her attempt to receive a $3 million personal loan under another person’s name; a scheme involving her attempt to receive a $5 million business loan for a false business; a scheme involving the fraudulent lease of a Rolls Royce Ghost Series II vehicle with a lease value of $144,000; a scheme where she submitted bogus documents in an attempt to buy a Bombardier Challenger 850 aircraft; and a foreclosure rescue scheme in which she received $120,000 from the victims, submitted false documents in civil court, and the victims lost their home to foreclosure.
On Dec. 22, Dailey was previously scheduled to be arraigned on new felony charges of defrauding the U.S. Small Business Administration for submitting fraudulent documents and receiving $187,000 in loans for COVID-19 relief for small businesses struggling to survive amid the pandemic.
Dailey, who is represented by the Public Defender, remains in custody on $250,000 bail.
Abrams said the defendant was previously convicted in 2008 in the U.S. District Court in Sacramento for fraudulently obtaining financial assistance relating to Hurricane Katrina, a Category 5 storm that devastated New Orleans and the Gulf Coast in August 2005.
The case is being investigated by District Attorney Investigator Mason Mineni and is being prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Jeff Daley.
Mineni requests that anyone with information about these cases, call him at 784-6876.
