Throughout the years, Dennis Rodman has always caused controversy because of his persona on the basketball court and his personal life. The year of 2012 is obviously no different. Apparently, Dennis Rodman is not having a good year. He has recently made sports and national headlines with his current troubles. The former rebounder and superstar of the Detroit Pistons is reportedly facing financial, legal, and health troubles.
Reportedly, Rodman owes back child support for his two children. The amount he owes is at least $800,000. He also owes spousal support to his former wife Michelle, who is the mother of his two kids. According to Michelle’s lawyer, Rodman still has to pay at least $51,000 for his former wife.
Rodman is also facing possible legal troubles. His failure to pay the money that is owed to his former wife and kids could land in hot water. He is facing the possible reality that he could be thrown is jail for at least three weeks.
Vowing to fight his legal troubles, Rodman’s lawyer, Linnea Willis, steps in to plead his case. She filed court documents on Rodman’s behalf. His lawyer claims that Rodman is ill and not able to support himself financially. She states that Rodman has another child that he is taking care of financially. She also claims in the documents that he is not able to make vast amounts of money as he did in his younger and healthier days.
All three of Rodman’s previous marriages ended in divorce. He made headlines when he married former Baywatch star Carmen Electra.
