Tyna Robertson — mother to Brian Urlacher's son Kennedy and, well, let's be generous and not call her a "gold digger" — received a rude awakening this morning. Robertson, who likes to bring Urlacher to court on a whim, was arrested this morning by Will County Sheriff's deputies in her Burr Ridge home on contempt of court charges stemming from a 2007 judgment against her brought on by "Lord of the Dance" creator/choreographer Michael Flatley.
You'll remember that, prior to hooking up with Urlacher, Robertson and Flatley had a brief relationship. When that ended, Robertson claimed Flatley raped her and filed a $33 million lawsuit against him. Flatley refuted the allegations and refused to settle the case. When Robertson's case against Flatley was dismissed, he countersued Robertson and her then-attorney D. Dean Mauro in California for extortion, intentional infliction of emotional distress and defamation. After settling with Mauro, Flatley accepted an $11 million settlement judgment against Robertson by the California Supreme Court.
The contempt of court charges were filed by Flatley's attorneys after Robertson missed a court date in Los Angeles and refusing to cooperate with documenting her assets to collect on the judgment. Cook County judge Alexander White released Robertson after vacating the warrant, but warned her in no uncertain terms that she was to cooperate with Flatley's attorneys or face six months in jail. On her way out of the courthouse this morning, Robertson said she felt that she was being harrassed and was never informed of the hearing.
“They set me up. They blatantly did this. For Flatley to do this after he’s hurt me is a slap in the face. His attorney’s actually have the nerve to file a motion that they never served me on and did this just to hurt me even more. That’s Ok. I will be flying to Los Angeles to vacate this judgment and fight this all the way now."
And how is she going to fight that, given that she keeps claiming about how broke she is due to the downturn in the housing market?

This woman and her antics should be known by any young man or woman who becomes successful or otherwise comes into money. And she always has someone to blame for everything. Lovely.
Her loathsome games hurt not just those involved, but give fodder to those who would dismiss rape victims as "hystrical" or mother's seeking vital child support as "gold diggers".
Gold Digger? Try parasite.
If it looks like ____ and smells like____ it might be ____. You fill in the blanks.
While I might be tempted to label her a Gold Digger, the guys who's gold she was trying to dig had to know what they were getting into. I don't totally blame her. Urlacher is a big idiot. You know, that whole "little head thinking for the big head" stuff. Flatley... not so dumb
i don't think flatley could rape a woman if he wanted to.
I thought it was funny when I read the following:
"Flatley flatly refuted the allegations..."
Then I realized the funny was just in my head.
Too bad.
Ummmmmm...
"His attorney’s actually have the nerve"
Hello, Sun-Times? You need new editors. You don't use an apostrophe to form plurals. It should be "attorneys."
She owes Flatley $11 million? Might as well make it eleventy billion trillion. She has all the earning power of a Kentuckian who drinks carburetor moonshine. Does this mean Urlacher has to start signing the child support checks directly to the Lord of the Dance?
Hey! She's a former stripper with a yen for gambling, what do these bozos expect? Her bread-and-butter consists of conning men out of their money.
