Wow, those are quite damning allegations.

He had to be told he wasn't adopted?? Oof, that's worse than being told you are adopted

To be fair, these people sound genuinely awful. Might be a bit of a relief,

Oher and Tiffany Roy married in 2022 after a 17 year relationship. Legally there shouldn't be a conservatorship after that date. All his earnings should be returned to him.

That movie always smelled bad.

Everyone go buy his book, if you have the spends to spare: When Your Back's Against the Wall. Let's make it a best-seller and impossible for these parasites to slither away from the collective memory.

He wasn't receiving royalties on HIS life story? But the Tuohy family was?

Jesus. Turns out that heart warming movie about the white saviors was actually exploration all along.

Interesting timing, right as he releases his book. Everything in this article is sad.
