Shaquille O’Neal Adds ‘FBI Agent’ to His Resume After Kash Patel Grants Special Honor
Kash Patel said the honor recognizes O'Neal’s longtime support for law enforcement and does not give him sworn FBI authority.
- On Thursday, FBI Director Kash Patel named Shaquille O'Neal an honorary special agent during the FBI National Academy's graduation in Quantico, Virginia.
- O'Neal was honored alongside 265 law enforcement officials during Session 299, a 10-week professional program for experienced law enforcement leaders from across the United States.
- Patel described the basketball Hall of Famer as a prominent supporter of law enforcement, while O'Neal has pursued police training and reserve-officer roles throughout his career.
- This honorary distinction does not mean O'Neal has joined the FBI as a sworn special agent or assumed investigative authority and duties associated with that position.
- The FBI National Academy has operated since 1935, training tens of thousands of public safety professionals, while ABC News highlighted the ceremony on social media.
