The Main Street Crips have a history of being in the news. In 2008, the Main Street Crips, made headlines when Shaquille O’Neal, former acquaintance Robert Ross, was kidnapped and beaten at gunpoint. Robert Ross told investigators during an interview that he believed O’Neal was behind the attack because of a business deal gone bad and because O’Neal believed he had a sex tape. Ross later told police he was “bluffing” about the tape.
The incident, led to the arrest of seven members of the Main Street Crips. The gang members face charges of kidnapping, robbery, assault with a firearm and criminal conspiracy. Ross stated that his childhood friend Ladell Rowles, led the assault. Police authorities, believe the beaten was the result of Ross, having an affair with Shaquille’s wife (Shaunie O’Neal).
