Michael Oher Receives $138K in 'Blind Side' Profits, Tuohy Family Reveals in Court Documents
TL;DR Summary
Documents filed in court show that the Tuohy family, who inspired the movie "The Blind Side," paid Michael Oher over $138,000 from the proceeds of the film, contradicting Oher's previous claim that he received no money. Oher had filed a lawsuit against the Tuohys, accusing them of cheating him out of money when they served as his conservator. The court records also reveal that the Tuohys spent tens of thousands of dollars on Oher while he attended high school and college. The conservatorship has now ended, and both sides have subpoenaed financial records from each other.
