Sean Avery Facing Legal Action After Serious Allegations
Sean Avery is in some hot water amid a recent scandal.
Avery Faces Legal Action
Sean Avery has found himself in significant trouble since his retirement. He and his ex-wife, Hilary Rhoda, have been going through a messy divorce which now sees Rhoda filing for a restraining order.
Rhoda filed for divorce a year ago in July of 2022. She also has requested a temporary restraining order against Avery that prevents him from coming in contact with her or their son, Nash.
The restraining order will stay in place up until the court hearing scheduled for September 11th, 2023.
The Allegations
In court documents, Avery is accused of child abuse and more.
"Sean also yells, swears, and name-calls on a constant basis. He follows me, trying to get me to engage. He has engaged in many instances of physical abuse against me and against third parties. Sean has also been physically and emotionally abusive to our son, Nash."
"Sean became irritated that our son woke up sick in the middle of the night. He screamed at me (in front of Nash) to go get Nash's 'f**king medicine,' and then aggressively punched the wall in Nash's bedroom and then punched our bedroom door. (Nash witnessed this and was scared and grabbing onto me), Sean then followed me to the kitchen, and as I was trying to get Nash's medicine, he ripped the cabinet door open -- slamming my finger between the open cabinet and the wall. I was petrified of Sean and his physical and aggressive behavior."
"Sean has purposefully endangered Nash by not putting him in his car seat properly; driving erratically; putting Nash in the front seat (without a car seat); smoking marijuana and then immediately driving with him; leaving his marijuana and cigarettes on the ground for Nash to access."
While it cannot be determined that this certainly happened, it is quite alarming and we will have to wait and see what happens on his court date.
