From Radar Online

Shaquille O’Neal’s former IT employee is suing the NBA star, accusing him of computer hacking and destroying evidence, and contending that O’Neal attempted to frame another employee by planting child pornography on his computer. Also, that O’Neal covered up email evidence of an alleged affair by throwing a computer in a lake.

The employee, Shawn Darling, makes several shocking allegations in his suit:

  1. Shaq hacked the voicemails and phone system of Vanessa Lopez, a former mistress, to delete messages and change Lopez’s password.
  1. O’Neal obtained restricted information about one of his mistresses, Alexis Miller, while he was involved in a legal battle with her.
  1. Shaq conspired with contacts in active and retired law enforcement to frame Darling for a criminal offense and destroy any evidence that Darling might have against O’Neal.

Darling, who has an extensive criminal background, said that his record didn’t bother Shaq because “that was why he hired me.”

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.”
