This wiki page is dedicated to shedding light on Laura M. Owens' alleged abuse of the legal system and human decency to coerce men into entering relationships with her. The owners of this wiki page are focused on facts, evidence, and justice. We are a neutral group of people unaffiliated with any of the accused parties, victims, or public accounts on YouTube, Twitter (X), Reddit, and the like. The contents of this wiki are based upon information contained in the public court record(s) of these cases, or provided by the parties themselves to the public at large.

To date, Laura M. Owens has entered the court system multiple times and has used the court system against at least 4 men she has had sexual encounters with. Each victim has had a unique relationship/encounter with Owens, ranging from an actual relationship to a one-night stand. After these men respectively ended their time with Owens and acknowledged that they didn't want to pursue her further, she either claimed that they abused her, that she was pregnant with their child(ren), or both. Following those claims, she enters the legal system to attempt to prove her claims with unconvincing evidence.

Laura M. Owens is currently in a legal battle with Clayton Echard, who is an American television personality best known for his appearances as a contestant on season 18 of The Bachelorette, and as the star of season 26 of The Bachelor. Their connection began when Laura solicited Clayton to be her real estate agent in May 2023. After a short period of time knowing each other, they engaged in an encounter that involved oral sex May 20th, 2023. When he told her that he didn't want to pursue a relationship with her, Owens claimed she was pregnant with twins from their oral sex encounter. Find more in-depth information below and see the public court documents here.

When Gillespie tried to end their brief encounter, Owens claimed that she was pregnant with twins from their one sexual encounter. She claimed that she would have an abortion if he committed to loving her and having a relationship with her. When he refused, Owens took him to court. They went back and forth within the court system for 2+ years, having only recently concluded the legal battle.

Clayton Echard

Main article: Clayton Echard & Laura M. Owens - Timeline of Events

Per court documents and articles/interviews from both Laura M. Owens and Clayton Echard, they had a brief encounter on May 20, 2023, in which she performed oral sex on him twice. When he tried to end things the very next day, she was distraught and refused to accept it. 11 days after their encounter, Owens claimed she was pregnant from the oral sex that occurred, and tried to force him into dating her. When he still refused, she took him to court to establish a parenting plan. Both Owens and Echard obtained orders of protection against one another, and she testified in court in November that she was 24 weeks pregnant and had just seen her doctor a few days prior. As of December 2023, she claims that she's "no longer pregnant", with no reasoning as to what happened to alleged twins.

At a status conference on February 21st 2024, Owens claimed she was told by her doctor in November that her pregnancy had ended "months" prior, allegedly without her knowledge. The judge granted a continuance for the evidentiary hearing and the new trial date was set for June 10th with extended time as requested by Echard's team. Owen's motion to seal her deposition was denied and was scheduled for March 1st. Owens signed a HIPAA release to acquire her medical records dating back to August of 2020.

In a video from Dave Neal posted February 28th, 2024[2], it was revealed that Owens emailed Gregg Woodnick on February 27, 2024 notifying him that she intends to sue Clayton for $1.36 million unless he drops the open paternity suit they are involved in. She gave Clayton a deadline to respond by February 29th, 2024 or she would move forward with the lawsuit. The lawsuit claims that in May 2023, when Owens sought Echard to help her purchase multiple properties, Echard did not submit the offers on both properties and thus amounted to over $1.2 million in damages. At the time of the real estate engagement, Echard attempted to move Owens over to another real estate broker in his firm due to her harassing communication with him, yet Owens would not agree. The threat of a lawsuit days before Owens is due to be deposed by Echard's attorney, Gregg Woodnick, has been described as "woefully inappropriate... nonsensical extortion." An email from Woodnick to Laura's attorney Cory Keith admitted that the HIPAA release from Owens proved that 3 of the medical providers she claimed to have seen have no record of her as a patient.

The open court case between Echard and Owens is currently moving toward the planned June 10th bench trial date. As new evidence has emerged leading to that date, Laura's story has continued to change, with the new timeline alleging that she had a miscarriage in July of 2023. Both Owens and Echard have retained expert testimony to dig into the timeline and evidence presented in advance of the trial date.

Disclaimers

This timeline is now being hosted here on JusticeForClayton.com after the original timeline, posted to Reddit, was taken down along with the subsequent repost of the content on Medium (archive.org link). This page cites public court records and, except for the clearly delimited speculation at the bottom, only includes verifiable facts. We will happily update this page to include any substantive evidence proving a pregnancy and Clayton Echard's paternity, but a screenshot of a doctor's appointment doesn't meet any reasonable standard. The operator of this site claims no authorship over the content below and is simply rehosting it for public accountability.


As of 2/18/2024, this site's web host has received two cease and desist notices from Owens, claiming that this site is operated by one or more of Marraccini, Gillespie, or Echard and that wild legal theories compel the host to abide by her orders of protection against them. Legal fantasy notwithstanding, this site is not operated by any of those individuals. As an anonymous wiki, the operators cannot be sure that those individuals are not among our users, but as long as contributions are justified by valid citations, we welcome anyone's contribution. This wiki aims to be a collected summary of citations of independently verifiable sources. We will revise its content in response to credible evidence as more is made available. The intent of this wiki is not to harass or defame anyone, but rather to preserve important public information that has been repeatedly removed from other sites under abusive takedown notices.
