O'Neal cleared of wrongdoing
The East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office said Wednesday that NBA star
Shaquille O'Neal has been cleared of wrongdoing in an internal affairs investigation that stemmed from his accompanying detectives on a drug raid last week.
Sheriff's Chief Criminal Deputy Col. Mike Barnett said O'Neal, an LSU graduate and Los Angeles Lakers center, was permitted to accompany the officers on the raid because he is a commissioned officer from another jurisdiction.
However, a spokeswoman for the Port of Los Angeles Police, said O'Neal has not completed his training.
Barnett said an internal affairs complaint was filed by one of the two people who were issued misdemeanor summonses on Sept. 3 after a search of their trailer at 16352 Old Hammond Highway, Lot 224.
Joshua Brock, 20, and Rikki Bewley, 21, both got summonses for possession of marijuana after the raid, Barnett said. He would not say which of them filed the complaint. WBRZ-TV, citing unnamed sources, claimed that the complaint involved O'Neal putting a man's head in a toilet.
Barnett would not discuss the substance of the complaint. The department does not discuss those complaints, he said.
He said the investigation showed that the complaint was unfounded.
"There is no indication that O'Neal or any of the other officers there" violated any Sheriff's Office policy or law, Barnett said.
He said the investigation, based on multiple interviews with detectives and witnesses "clearly showed" that no one participating in the raid "did anything improper."
He suggested that the person who complained may have had an ulterior motive.
"It is not unusual for people to attempt to shake down sports figures," he said.
O'Neal is in training with the Port of Los Angeles Police and has said he might pursue a career in law enforcement after he leaves basketball. Rachel Campbell, a spokeswoman for the Port of Los Angeles Police, said O'Neal is not a commissioned officer because he has not completed training.
O'Neal's spokesman, Michael Parris, did not return a message seeking comment on the matter Wednesday.
Neither Bewley nor Brock could be reached for comment.
