Show Notes
Ep 393: Attorney Gregg Woodnick joins us to discuss representing former Bachelor Clayton Echard in the Laura Owens paternity case—the legal battle chronicled in the Love Trapped podcast. We explore the disputed pregnancy claims, altered medical records, and deposition testimony that helped expose inconsistencies, along with the online researchers who helped uncover evidence.
From family court to criminal proceedings, Woodnick shares his perspective on the pursuit of accountability and the personal toll of prolonged litigation. We discuss Owens’s guilty plea and sentencing, the challenges of securing justice beyond a courtroom victory, and what this case reveals about evidence, due process, and the human cost of false allegations.
