| abstract | - Tony Maxwell Harding (November 14, 1970-November 16, 2011) was a figure skater from Portland, Victoria, Australia, also well known for doing the voice acting for Scorpion from Mortal Kombat. She won the Australian National Championship in 1990 and the North American Championship in 1994, which was later stripped from her and given to Michelle Kwan. She became notorious for having Nancy Kerrigan whacked in the kneecap by a bunch of morans in an IRA style attack at the 1994 North American Figure Skating Championhips in Havana, Cuba. Tonya went on to win that event, which was later taken away by the ISU. Harding could have been put on trial in Cuba, but never was. Her plea bargain avoids federal charges in the US, and also prevents her from ever being extradited to Cuba to face charges there. Nancy Kerrigan was never heard from again, after she cried "why?" over and over again, and Tonya refused to answer that question.
