Celebrity Justice
Rodman's Alleged Victim Has Violent Past

Gina "Gigi" Peterson, the girlfriend Dennis Rodman allegedly smacked around on Wednesday night, had a restraining order successfully filed against her by her ex-husband and father of her four kids -- six weeks ago!

Her ex-husband is actually George Peterson from "The Real Housewives of Orange County." Gina and George separated in '02 and officially divorced in April of 2004.

George then got engaged to his current wife, Lauri Waring, during season two of "Housewives" -- and the (not-so) temporary restraining order filed against Gina forces her to leave George, Lauri and her two kids alone for five years. Gina's list of alleged crazy filed by George is long, and includes gems like:

-- "Gina stated that she wished I were dead, she wishes she could kill me, wishes I had a heart attack ... (and) if she had a gun, she would shoot me."

-- "Gina also has a history of violence against our children (once resulting in an Emergency Protective Order in favor of my eldest daughter ...)

-- "Gina has also physically assaulted me resulting in me falling to the ground."

-- "She even was previously ordered to involuntary psychiatric lock down."

-- "Gina threatens me in (an) email by reference to Dorian Gray, a character in Oscar Wilde's novel, who is found dead at the end with a knife in his heart."

As for her run-in with Rodman, Rodman's manager Darren Prince told TMZ, "Dennis and his girlfriend had too much to drink. When they returned to their hotel they started arguing and a minor altercation broke out where Dennis grabbed her by the arm and left a bruise." Cops are investigating.

46. It's about time that the truth about Gina got out there with pictures and video evidence, no less. She looks fake and slutty. The two youngest Peterson daughters should only get supervised visitation with Gina, if that. A toxic environment over there at GiGi's place. UGHHH, the name even sounds like a stripper name.

47. Pepperoni Girl should know all about supervised visitation with one's own children. People who live in glass houses...

49. I've seen www.FamilyLawCourts.com and it is painfully obvious that Gina and/or her family members are feeding information to an anonymous website to get around possible gag orders. SHAME ON YOU! The family members should encourage GiGi to get some serious mental help. She needs it.

50. Skanky is as Skanky does. Are Gina's boobs real? How 'bout her face? And who pays for all that stuff, does Gina have a JOB?

51. I too have seen the information on www.familylawcourts.com and contrary to Dinbatlilah's comment, I think what is painfully obvious is that there is way way more to this story than anybody knows. Hey Delilah aka PG why don't you crawl back under that rock you slid out from? You want to talk about stalker and crazy, just Google the term "pizza Girl."

52. Diversion, diversion, diversion. Is this article about Gina Peterson and Dennis Rodman or Pizza Girl? The spotlight is on Gina today. Didn't her family and friends say that she is a doting CHRISTIAN mother? She and Dennis must have been at some sort of religious retreat when that video was shot. Jezebel.

53. Saw the video on this FAKE & TRASHY little piece.........she's just after her face being in front of the cameras and getting some recognition. She's dangerous and has SERIOUS problems. Time for her to get help .

54. Smelly VaGina....the BUNNY BOILER.... is a lonely, psycho, master manipulator at its best. Watch out World be wary of this kind!!!!! The fact that she's trying to play the 'poor catalyst' for Rodman's alcohol abuse...is HILARIOUS. It's amazing how God works right? Cause he sent this lesson to you for a reason....or maybe he sent this lesson to the world...using YOU as the CATALYST.....because YOU DESERVE THE HUMILIATION!!!!!! You psycho...that's why you have the reputation that you do....as a bunny boiler.....

55. There is NO WAY that the Media Grabber GIGI (Giddy up) would have bruised that quickly from Dennis grabbing her arm to push her away (because she is so violent herself). The bruise would have come out the next day. Come on............ everybody.........wake up.........look at her history. She's simply trying to get media attention and get some recognition from the media........I'd say she set the whole thing up........even by arranging with the media to meet with her and that daughter to do the video. I'm not that stupid. She would have made sure she had the bruise on that arm BEFORE she went out with Dennis that night & started the arguement.

56. Seriously let's look at all the facts. Gina's ex husband took a retraining order out againist her for not just one year, or two years BUT 5 YEARS!! She's a loose cannon and needs professional help. Who does she think she is?? She needs to grow up and stop stalking/assulting people.... Hopefully Dennis will wake up and kick her ugly ass back to the gutter where she belongs. It's people like her that give Dennis a bad name!! She's only out there to get her name in the media..... It's pathetic - SHE'S PATHETIC!!

57. That woman has no CLASS - was she a stripper at a club in Vegas? Don't know what Dennis is doing with this troublemaker, as he normally likes "Ladies with CLASS" - she is so FAKE & I agree, she's out there looking for media attention. GIGI................it's not about you baby.............. Dennis is the one we want to see............you're just a dark shadow

58. Every word on the "declaration" of George Peterson is an absolute slanderous lie. He is the abusive one, physically, emotionally and verbally to his ex wife and to his children. He was an absentee parent his entire marriage. After Gigi said she wanted a divorce, but wanted to be friends and make it easy on the kids; he told her that he would destroy her and that she should just disappear and if she didn't he had "ways" of making her disappear. She has begged and pleaded with him to be a better person and a friend and make it easy on the children. He needed to take custody of the kids for his show and his image as he and his new wife call themselves "the new brady bunch". These children have been abused and it is parental alienation in its most extreme form. These children have letters to the judge that their "attorney" would not let the judge read and the judge refused to read or speak to the kids. These kids are being held captive against their will and beg to be with their mother. She was not represented in court and that is the only reason he has his little nitch in time to slander her all over the internet. He knows that she will have her day and be heard in the appeal. They have only a little bit of time to completely destroy her reputation. She isn't trying to be in the media. If she wanted it there has been plenty of opportunity for her to do so. She stays out of the limelight. Her children means more to her than anything in life. And he knows that and he controlled and abused her for so long that he wants to continue to control her by paying off people in "the system". He had nothing when she met him and they built their life together and if it weren't for her there would be no company or family. He has taken everything from her, like he promised, kids, house, finances and now he is trying to destroy her reputation. But it kills him that she is far stronger than he thought she was. As far as Dennis is concerned, she and Dennis love and adore each other and he would never want to hurt her. He has been good to both her and her kids. And she will continue to stand by his side as she wants healing for him. The real victims are the children who have been abused by their father and are forced to be without their mother. He knows this as he has read their letters, yet strong arms them to submission. He has caused utter hell in all of their lives for the last six years and is obsessed with destroying her. All she tries to do is go on with her life, but he stalks her with private detectives and slanders her to all who will listen. Funnily enough I know she still prays for him because he is the children's father. All you who post and you know who you are George and Lauri....need to move on and worry about what goes on in your own homes. And leave innocent children alone.

59. Hey George and Lauri:

It is no surprise to see both of you posting here behind aliases as you accused others of doing. Your posts are so obvious as is Pizza Girl's and her alter ego, Delilah. How much are you paying Pizza, George?! Nonetheless, say what you want about Ms. Peterson, aka, Gigi, Lauri only wishes she had half the heart Gigi has and as far as comparing appearance...Lauri, only in your wildest dreams!!! Georgie Boy, you actually believe you have it all wrapped up in a pretty little package for S-4 for the Bravo Housewives show, recently voted the 14th most ridiculous reality show, but think again. Yes, Georgie, you know who I am, I have known you almost half your life and have watched you try to destroy the mother of your children....Yes, it is all chronicled, George. The saddest thing is your kids know what you have done and continue to do to keep them from their mother and you know about that, too, but when did you ever care about your kids? I promise you this, Mr. Narcissist and Psychoctic famewhore, it aint over....it is only begun! There are places for people like you and Lauri....Hey Lauri, are you proud after exploiting your own troubled son on national TV? What a piece of work you are for using your own child who just wanted your attention and a mother who was there for him but instead you used him for ratings and to draw attention to yourself. I hope to God Joshua can climb out of the pit you dug for him. What mother would tell the world on a stupid reality show the struggles their, at the time, 16 year old son was dealing with? Then, for you to drag Joshua into a so-called "Intervention" on national TV was the most outrageous and selfish act I have seen. It was unbelievable! Yes, I know all about your past, too, and you know it. Posturing for S-4 under the guise of "Blending the Families" and using the Brady Bunch analogy is so absurd and the Peterson kids and Joshua will never, ever forget what the two of you did to these kids for your attempt at stardum. The real truth is about to come out, George. Your money can't buy you a reputation or hush your past. You only have yourself to blame.
