"Tuohy Family Accuses Michael Oher of $15 Million Extortion Attempt"

Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, the couple depicted in "The Blind Side," have accused Michael Oher of trying to extort $15 million from them through threatening texts and emails. Oher, a former NFL player, had previously filed a petition alleging that the Tuohys lied about adopting him and exploited him for financial gain. The Tuohys argue that their retelling of their relationship with Oher falls under fair use and is not a commercial use of his name and likeness. The conservatorship between Oher and the Tuohys is set to be terminated, but the financial part of the case remains unresolved.
