Clayton EchardYouTube/ABC“Today is a very, very good day, because I woke up to read a very thoughtful opinion from the court and justice is finally being served,” Echard, 31, said in a Tuesday, June 18, Instagram video. “To the journalists, some of who were threatened personally, who pushed through to share this unbelievable saga of Laura Michelle Owens faking pregnancies and medical records in order to force relationships, you are truth warriors and I am incredibly humbled,” he said. Echard added that it is his “sincere wish that Laura turns over a new leaf and gets the help that she needs.” He said that he “would be the first to embrace her for making a positive change” and asked his followers to “refrain from any commentary that could be misinterpreted as harmful” while discussing the legal victory online.
