Redskins' Albert Haynesworth Being Sued for $10 Million by Pregnant Stripper

Comments (3)


Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth was already causing a stir for his no-show at the team's voluntary (but really mandatory) workout camps this month. Now he's also being called out for his actions off the field.

According to the New York Post, the 6-foot-6-inch 350-pound baller is being sued by stripper Silvia Mena for $10 million. She claims that he got her pregnant and then abandoned her.

In the lawsuit, Mena says that she met Haynesworth in 2009 during Super Bowl week in Miami. After Mena told him that she was pregnant, he promised to support her financially and emotionally but has since, according to the suit, refused to talk to her or "provide any emotional or financial support of Silvia Mena or his unborn child."
Mena briefly spoke with the New York Post, saying, "It is very stressful, I cry all the time." Her lawyer, Salvatore Strazullo, filed the $10 million lawsuit on her behalf.

"This man is worth millions," Strazzullo said. "She has had to apply for Medicaid to take care of her pregnancy."

Haynesworth hasn't commented on the suit or the claims. Last year, he signed a seven-year $100-million contract with the Washington Redskins. He earned $32 million of that contract last season. Is Mena a gold-digger or is Haynesworth a future deadbeat daddy?
