Did Shaq send gang members after somebody who had his sex tape?

If Shaq wanted to stay in the spotlight during his retirement, this is probably not what he had envisioned. TMZ is reporting that law enforcement officials in L.A. are looking to see if Shaq may be involved in a criminal conspiracy. Exactly what that conspiracy is remains murky but it involves a man named Robert Ross and the possibility that gang members went after him to retrieve a sex tape Shaq may be in.
According to the police report, the 7 gang members met up with Ross at a convenience store — Pink Dot — on the Sunset Strip. The men allegedly surrounded Ross’ Rolls Royce Phantom with guns drawn, jumped into Ross’ car and ordered him to drive to Rowles’ house in South Central L.A.
Once there, Rowles allegedly pistol whipped Ross and demanded that he turn over the sex tape.
…Ross has a history with Shaq. Shaq and his business manager, Mark Stevens, have a record label and allegedly told Ross they would give him a 50% cut in any artists he brought to them. Ross claims he delivered Ray J to Shaq but got cut out of the deal.
Ross told cops after his falling out, he threatened Shaq by telling him about the sex tape, threatening to release it unless Shaq paid up.
As for the tape, Ross claims Shaq brought women to Ross’ home and had sex with them while he was married to Shaunie. Ross told Shaq a “security camera” captured the action and it was all on tape. But Ross told cops the security camera recycles periodically and the video no longer exists.
If true, wow–but at best right now, it seems like secondhand info. This isn’t the first time the “Shaq and other women rumor” has popped up. If you recall, Kobe insinuated a few years back that the Big Aristotle paid hush money to his mistresses. Something that was met with so much disgust by Shaq that he later coined the popular phrase, “tell me how my ass tastes” in reference to Kobe.
