There was an ugly rumor circulating some years ago that Tonya once had somebody “iced”. Whats the true story about that?
Back in 1986 Tonya was attacked by one of her half brothers, Chris Davison, whom Tonya says tried to rape her. Tonya fought him off with a curling iron and a hockey stick. Two years later, Davison died after being struck by a car in an unsolved hit-and-run accident. At the time of the Kerrigan incident, unfounded rumors began to circulate that this was in fact not an accident and that Tonya had either carried out or organized Davison’s death. The truth, however, is that Davison was drunk at the time he was run over and had a long history of drinking problems. At the time that this rumor first surfaced, the Portland Police Department issued this statement: “There is no evidence or reason to believe that Harding or any relatives are associated with, had any involvement or knowledge regarding this accident.” In short, the story has no substance and is nothing more than another example of the anti-Tonya bias of the media.
