Shaquille O’Neal is involved in some weird ass stories.

The Big Shamrock may or may not be engaged to Hoopz, may or may not have had an affair with Vanessa Lopez, and may or may not have hacked an employee’s computer and attempted to frame him by planting child porn on that piece.

Shawn Darling is suing Shaq for intentional infliction of emotional distress, invasion of privacy and civil R.I.C.O. (a racketeering charge) in Miami, Florida.

Some of Shawn’s explosive allegations:

  • O’Neal conspired with active law enforcement to frame Darling for a criminal offense and destroy any evidence that Darling had against O’Neal.
  • Shaq hacked the voicemails of Darling and Vanessa Lopez, who is currently suing O’Neal, deleting Lopez’s messages and changed her password.
  • O’Neal used law enforcement contacts to obtain restricted information about another mistresses, Alexis Miller, while he was legally fighting her.
  • Shaq physically disposed of a personal computer holding evidence of many transgressions while married to Shaunie O’Neal in a lake behind his home.

Darling worked for O’Neal from 2007-2009 as his personal IT guy and claims he was originally hired to work on “different O’Neal family projects.”

 
Darling, who has an extensive criminal background, tells Radar Online that his shady past didn’t bother Shaq because “that was why he hired me.”

He claims proof in the form of emails, text messages and pics that Shaq had multiple affairs while married and tried to keep it from going public.

In August of 2008 Shaq was playing for the Phoenix Suns and – according to Darling, anyway – having an affair with hip-hop singer Alexis Miller who ended up accusing him of harassment and stalking. Shaq later settled with Miller.

The lawsuit filed against the future Hall of Famer alleges,” O’Neal told Darling that Alexis Miller had obtained a restraining order and that O’Neal said could not remember what he sent to Miller by way of text messaging and E-mail.”

According to the suit, Shaq asked Darling to retrieve every email and text message that he sent Miller-as well as all of Shaq’s phone records.

Darling says that after obtaining all of this information for Shaq, he then performed a “Defense Department style wipe of O’Neal’s computer.”

In October, 2009, following the demise of Shaq’s marriage to Shaunie O’Neal, Darling discovered he was having an affair with Vanessa Lopez.
