Sean Tuohy and Son SJ Respond to Michael Oher's Lawsuit

Sean Tuohy and his son, SJ, are speaking out about former NFL player Michael Oher’s legal petition, which alleges that the Tuohy family did not legally adopt him, but instead, tricked him into a conservatorship before making millions from his life story, which was depicted in the 2009 film, ‘The Blind Side.’

[@TrustJesus333]

Yup, the Tuohy Family was blindsided by Mr. Oher….there is quite a lesson there if you care to seek it.

[@Dropletsojoy]

@@TrustJesus333 I mean the fact is that they had him in a conservatorship since 2004. He did not actually sue them or file a lawsuit. He filed something to end the conservatorship and for the conservators to show their accounts for the money made from him ( which they should have done every year since but never did it and weren't even fined for not doing so). Not sure how they were blindsided? Especially since a conservatorship is made for mentally or physically incapacitated people- which Michael is neither. The also did not put up a bond (which even Brittany had) and also waived the person who would have explained everything to Michael since the conservators cant do that since due to vested interest (basically this is the person in Michaels corner ensuring he wanted to go through with the conservatorship and understood what he was signing away.

The father Sean Touhy initially claimed they only received proceeds from the book and it was split $14,000 each, nothing from the movie. Then the biological son SJ here is admitting he received $60 - $70K from the movie. This is not adding up. The main character portrayed in the movie Michael Oher stated he received $0 from the movie.

From everything I can gather from the conservatorship was signed but the oath of conservatorship was never carried out in front of a judge or magistrate which would make it legally binding.. Michael oher has signed contracts without the input of the family so there is my evidence that there was actually no legal and active conservatorship over this man

[@williamgullett5911]

They are talking about thousands of dollars. The family is worth many many millions. Im betting Oher blew his football money and is trying to get a payday. If he had gone to them saying he needed money they might have given him 10 times more. Now, when he ends up getting 50 or 100k they should cut him out of their lives completely. He went to them and had told them if he didn’t get 15 million he was gonna sue them. The guy is broke and he is gonna end up with virtually nothing.

Because they couldn't legally adopt him at age 18, this was the closest thing they could do to make him part of their family. Doing so got him into Ole Miss as it was their Alma mater and it pretty much guaranteed he'd get in.

Wow, if Michael was really a part of their family, why isn't he on the board of directors of their family foundation, but their lawyer Debbie, who helped file the conservatorship is? Why do they call him their son and not allow him to be a part of any inheritance? Why do they take speaking engagements advocating for adoption and promote it? Why is adoption a platform for them when they didn't actually adopt? Why did they never correct the countless interviews and stories that stated they adopted Michael? Adoption would grant someone rights in the even of inheritance. I get that movie never actually said they adopted him. I get that their website never says they adopted him, but they definitely used this little white lie to their advantage to promote themselves in the name of charity. They used Michael's image, his name, his person. I am horrified. It's a lie by omission. They let everyone think Michael was adopted...as in full family rights. And they used that for their foundation, speaking engagements, clout in the community, a platform for adoption which they never did, and to sell t-shirts about how families don't have to match. My gosh, this man has been through horrendous trauma and this family has no problem with the damage they have done in continuing to portray this image that they are some model adoption story.
