These Two: Iverson Goes From Asking Judge To Dismiss Divorce To Trying To Put His Wife In Jail

I don’t think Tawanna can divorce her estranged husband, Allen Iverson, soon enough. A couple of months ago, Allen asked a judge to dismiss his wife’s petition for divorce because they were still having relations, but now he wants her locked up and doing time—although she may have sort of put herself in this position.

According to AI, while he was away in Asia for a basketball engagement, Tawanna ransacked his house, taking furniture, art, memorabilia, a large chunk of cash, and pretty much anything she could get her hands on. Allen says he’s asked his old lady to return his stuff on several occasions and she’s refused, so now he’s filed a motion for contempt in Georgia. Allen says Tawanna should be held in contempt for harassing him and thrown in jail until she returns her belongings. He also wants an order barring her from entering his home. He probably should have done that already.

I’d be careful if I was him though, especially when it comes to claims that his soon-to-be ex-wife took a wad of cash from the house. This is the same man who supposedly overdrew the couple’s account by $23,000 to buy jewelry, leaving his wife and kids high and dry. Not to mention he was recently ordered to repay the $850,000 he owes to a jewelry company. Tawanna was probably just trying to look out for her and the kids, although she may have gone about it in a ratchet way.

Do you think Tawanna should get time?

    I wonder where were the kids when all of this was taking place? They both need to quit it and just get divorced already. My mother and father acted the same way back in the day when they split and utlitmately divorced. My brothers and I to this very day STILL talk about how crazy and out of control they both acted. It took them 25 years to get to a place of peace with each other. SMH. I hope Tawanna and Allen don’t waste their lives being bitter the way my parents did because no one wins when it gets ugly.

    I dont understand why too many of these so called men can make it rain on any and everything EXCEPT their wives and children. What part of the game is that?

  • CA Pullen

    I agree.  Why don’t they just divorce and move on with their lives?  Both parties are immature.

    This is petty. Just divorce in a civilize manner. Children are involved. Nobody is acting like the adult
