WEBVTT - Pregnant by the Effing Bachelor | EP 10 0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:05.960 After the family court judge made her ruling, there was 0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:08.520 a long wait to see if Laura would be criminally charged. 0:00:09.400 --> 0:00:11.800 Clayton wanted Laura to face consequences. 0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:14.760 We also were like, are we asking for too much 0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:19.320 to get her prosecuted? The only when is her being 0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:20.240 held accountable? 0:00:21.640 --> 0:00:24.880 He wasn't the only one who felt that way. Shortly 0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:29.240 after Clayton's trial, content creator Megan Fox launched a letter 0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:32.080 writing campaign. The goal was to try to get the 0:00:32.120 --> 0:00:36.199 attention of Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell so that her 0:00:36.200 --> 0:00:40.159 office would pursue criminal charges against Laura Owens. 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:43.440 All I did was put the idea out there, write 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:45.519 a couple of templates for people if they had a 0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:49.000 problem writing, and asked them to do it. The fact 0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:53.440 that people sat down and did this, that's organic. They 0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:56.880 licked stamps, put them on envelopes and sent them in. 0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:00.520 I know that Attorney Mitchell, while she out a lot 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.400 of letters, Laura. 0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:06.440 Had offended a lot of people directly and indirectly, and 0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:07.920 this was their chance to be heard. 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:09.480 Here's Megan again. 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:13.160 I'm a big believer in writing paper letters because if 0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:17.080 you send emails, nobody reads them. But if they get 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.280 faxes and paper letters that you have to dump on 0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:23.360 their desks, just like in Miracle on thirty fourth Street. 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.959 They can't ignore you, and they really start to think, Wow, 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.440 there's a real problem here. People cared enough to walk 0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:31.959 to the mailbox and send me a letter, and you 0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.959 have to be heard, and the next thing, you know, 0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:36.920 action starts happening. 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:41.720 It wasn't just random Reddit users writing letters to Rachel Mitchell. 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:45.160 Some of the letters were from people who'd been personally 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:51.160 impacted by Laura Owens, like Danielle Marriccini, Mike's wife. Here's 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:52.120 what Danielle wrote. 0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:58.240 I said, Dear Rachel Mitchell, my name is Danielle Marriccini, 0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.520 and I am writing to you not only as the 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.680 wife of Michael Marriccini, but as a mother and a 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:08.600 woman deeply affected by the ongoing trauma inflicted upon my 0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:12.320 family by Laura Michelle Owens. Michael has been the direct 0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.680 target of Laura Owens's manipulative and malicious behavior, and it 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:21.360 has caused serious emotional, psychological, and reputational harm. Her actions 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.239 have gone far beyond the boundaries of conflict or disagreement. 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:28.919 They have been tormenting, targeted, and entirely destructive. She has 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:32.720 continuously made efforts to disrupt our lives, spread falsehoods, and 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:36.760 create division within our personal and professional circles. Over the 0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:38.760 past several years, I have had to sit through two 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.520 separate court hearings, one in twenty twenty and another in 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:45.679 twenty twenty four, both initiated by Laura Owens falsified claims. 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.880 I was pregnant with each of my daughters during those proceedings. 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:54.520 To endure such stressful and emotionally charged legal battles while 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:58.480 expecting our children was incredibly traumatic. As a result of 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.280 her actions, I have endured in stress and anxiety, and 0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:04.440 our family has lived in fear and uncertainty for far 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:08.320 too long. The relentless nature of Laura's behavior has caused 0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:12.320 sleepless nights, strained relationships, and has affected our ability to 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:15.800 feel safe in our own lives. We are pleading with 0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:17.919 your office to take a closer look at this case, 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.680 not just as a legal matter, but as a human one. 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:24.720 What Laura Owens has done is not only harmful but unjust. 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:29.400 We need accountability, and more importantly, we need protection. I 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.679 asked that you consider the long standing pattern of emotional 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:36.680 abuse and manipulation of Laura Owens. 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.800 I'm Stephanie Young, and this is love trapped. 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:43.560 There's no way. 0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:47.280 You better believe. 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:59.960 I'll be raising Holy Helps if you ever, ever, ever ever. 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:00.640 Trash. 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:10.600 After Clayton's trial, there was a groundswell of support for 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:14.880 people who'd been victimized by Laura Owens. Mike Marriccini wrote 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:17.680 a letter of his own to the prosecutor. It was 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.599 not only a plea for them to take Laura's action seriously, 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:23.840 but an offer to help their investigation in any way 0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:24.279 he could. 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.440 I said, listen, I have all of this information here. 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.760 I would love to share this with you. She's going 0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.040 to try to make all of our lives hell. Please 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:37.600 look at this information. And she responded within I would 0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:41.560 say two hours and said I'm including my investigators on 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:44.400 this case. They'll be reaching out to you. They called 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.640 me within another hour and they're like, when can we 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:48.160 come to you. 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.680 Mike sent them evidence he had collected, including what he 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:57.480 had on his old laptop. Within a week, the investigators 0:04:57.520 --> 0:04:59.480 flew to California to interview him. 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.400 For several hours at my house and they didn't give 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.200 me any details of what they were looking into, but 0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:09.760 they said they traveled all over the US and they 0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:11.680 were taking this case very seriously. 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:16.240 They were looking for proof of any criminal behavior. I 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:18.960 reached out to Rachel Mitchell's office to see if they 0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:21.920 would weigh in for this podcast. They wrote back saying 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:24.400 that she's unable to comment given that this is an 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.039 open case. But Rachel Mitchell did give a public update 0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:31.120 at a press conference in August of twenty twenty four. 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.480 I was talking to one of the investigators working on 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:37.560 it this morning about an update, and I know they're 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.600 going through it quickly. They've talked to a number of people, 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:45.080 and as you can imagine, it's gathering information from a 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:49.280 number of different sources, medical courts, et cetera. So they're 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:50.359 busy working on that. 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:54.680 At the end of episode seven, you heard Clayton's family 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:58.800 court trial and the judge's ruling. After that, there were 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:02.640 months of waiting. Rachel Mitchell's office carried out their investigation. 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.440 As we talked about in the last episode, Laura stayed 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:12.599 busy by posting online telling her side of the story. Then, 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:15.880 on the morning of January twenty ninth, twenty twenty five, 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:19.760 twelve police officers in tactical gear showed up at the 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:22.960 Owens family home. They were there to execute a search 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:26.080 warrant of the Owens property, looking to find evidence that 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:30.480 would support their growing criminal case against Laura Owens. 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:31.839 Play search war. 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:36.240 The twelve cops split up, with one group going around 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.919 back to the casita where Laura lived. It's a detached 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:44.000 studio apartment behind the main house. Another group of officers 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.880 went to the front door where Laura's parents lived. 0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:50.320 And Ron Laura Blase search warrant opened the door. 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:54.720 Pay What you're hearing is the real audio from the 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:58.600 officer's body cams. This wasn't the Scottsdale p ds first 0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:01.920 trip to the Owens home. Over the last few years, 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.679 they've been there at least four times to conduct welfare 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:08.440 checks on Laura. Most of those calls were triggered by 0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:12.960 anonymous tips from people concerned about the suicidal ideation she'd 0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:16.920 been posting online. On this day, the police stood at 0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:18.960 the front door, repeatedly knocking. 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:20.440 Police search warr. 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:23.800 Jan War or Ron. 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:24.240 Opened the door. 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:29.760 You can hear motion from behind the door.

The cops want eyes on 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:51.480 everyone in the house, and they find Ron still in bed. 0:08:53.800 --> 0:09:05.160 Regarding that, regarding Aura right entry, taking my character right now, 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.000 you're good to move to the casida. 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.560 When the cops approach the casida, they find Laura standing 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:13.560 there behind a sliding glass door. 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:16.200 Laura, Police, it's the police. 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:24.320 What it's the police department, Laura, scott Stale Police, you 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:25.160 see my badge. 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:28.600 Laura cracks open the sliding glass door, but leaves the 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:30.040 screen door in place with the. 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.040 Scott step police department.

The 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:03.560 floor is covered in clothes, even in the kitchen area 0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:07.760 and bathroom on the opposite wall. The pile of clothes 0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:10.520 is so high it reaches the bottom of the window. 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:17.400 The drawers hang open overflowing. Honestly, every single surface is 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:21.480 covered in stuff. The counters and bedside tables are buried 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:27.000 under papers, random electronics, even multiple pill bottles. Resting on 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.720 top is what looks like a pink Victoria's secret shopping bag. 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:35.520 The walls are decorated with those motivational art prints, like 0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:39.160 one by her bed that reads you got this, another 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:43.240 in her kitchen that seems to read everything is figure outable. 0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:46.440 The cops are trying to calm Laura down. 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:49.240 Okay, well, if we were going to handle this more escalated, 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:50.240 we were just forced our way in. 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:51.120 But we're not doing that. 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:53.080 We're trying to handle this as low key as possible. 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:55.319 I was told that if the police were going to 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.440 calm they would come during business hours.

Meanwhile, the group of officers who were already 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:18.240 inside the main house, we're waking up Laura's dad, Ron Owens. 0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:20.600 Ron asked why the police were there. 0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:27.160 So Laura is a subject of an investigation by the courts. 0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:29.760 So it's regarding it's regarding that. 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.880 Okay, So it's gonna be We're gonna come in here 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:34.319 and they'll explain it to you and they'll give you 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:35.480 a copy of the search warrant. 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:38.920 Ron asks to see the search warrant and wants to 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:40.280 know the officer's badge number. 0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:44.000 The badge for a seconds, Yeah number, it is fourteen 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:46.400 twenty two.

Okay. 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:07.280 The officer hands him his robe and calmly explains exactly 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:07.920 what's happening. 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:12.200 Yeah, because I guess Laura has been a little bit uncooperative, 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:15.720 and they will. You can talk to the investigators. Okay, 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:17.800 they'll have all the details. We're just helping them out 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:19.280 with the service of the warrant. 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.520 As Ron gets out of bed, he looks at the 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:23.840 officer and warns him about Laura. 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:32.080 She is basically suicidal. She's suicidal. She has mentioned it, don't. 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:32.400 You dear. 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:35.480 She will. 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:44.240 Before the officer could finish his conversation with Ron, Laura 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:48.440 comes into the house, guided by two officers. You can 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:52.080 see they're handling her with extreme care, using what's known 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:55.480 as an escort grip, one hand on the wrist and 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:58.560 the other just above the elbow to keep things controlled 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:02.720 but steady. It doesn't look like they're using excessive force, 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:06.800 but Laura feels otherwise, and she's not quiet about it. 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:09.760 Please you, you. 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:14.320 Were you were hurting me, they passed right by her 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:15.120 father's bedroom. 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:16.800 I want to see. 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:20.840 Yeah, that's what I want. I want to see my father. 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.320 You are hurting me, and there's to be. 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:28.080 A report for what you have done. I guarantee you. 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:31.680 I will have bruises from this. I guarantee you. I will. 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:34.160 I'd like to see my father. Please. 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:38.160 No, I don't know where my mom here. 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:42.320 The moment Laura sees her mom, jan she frantically runs 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:59.440 straight to her. She says the police are horrible, inappropriate. 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:03.600 But between twenty twenty one and twenty twenty five, Laura 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:07.440 reached out to the Scottsdale Police for help nearly twenty times. 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:11.080 She was the one contacting them, saying she'd been the 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:16.040 victim of harassment, press leaks, and restraining order violations. Now 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:18.720 that the tables had turned and she was the one 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:24.280 being investigated, Laura suddenly finds their presence inappropriate. She cries 0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:26.280 to her mother that she's not sure if the police 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:26.960 are real or not. 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:30.040 I said I didn't know they were. 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:36.680 They still don't even know they got me. 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:41.760 And then Laura hits her breaking point. She turns and 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:45.160 delivers the one line that, in many ways has come 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:46.880 to define this entire case. 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:49.560 You know what, it's not even seven o'clock. I am 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:53.080 done nothing and get pregnant by the fighting bressler. 0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:59.680 Okay, I say I'm going to kill somebody now. Remember 0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:03.320 this video was recorded in January of twenty twenty five. 0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:07.800 Six months earlier, it had been adjudicated that Clayton the 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:12.880 Bachelor wasn't the father of Laura's alleged twins because, according 0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:16.639 to the judge, she was never pregnant. But she's sticking 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:19.960 with her story. Laura then hears her dad beginning to 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:22.640 shuffle into the room and shifts her focus to him. 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:25.399 I need to help my father. He don't get up. 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:28.159 My dad is handy capping. No, he can't get up. 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:28.960 You don't get it. 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:31.720 My dad can't get up and he's open. Sit there. 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:39.600 He can't get up his handicap. Please do not do no, 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:45.760 he can't. He has poor dad can do with this. 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:50.359 Fuck all of you guys, seriously, fuck you guys. He 0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:59.400 is not even said in the morning, I agree, honey. 0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:02.600 You can hear or her mom jan comforting her, agreeing 0:18:02.640 --> 0:18:06.040 with her. Then Laura says this to the police. 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:08.280 Do you guys see what you've done? Do you see 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:11.080 what you've done. I mean it really that my family 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:12.560 is dealing with sir. 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:15.959 As her father walks in the room, Laura has a 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:20.639 realization all of this is being recorded the people. 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:22.399 You know what. 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:28.000 Oh, I'm sure they already told me they had body camps. 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:33.680 I'm sure they're gonna get thee becomes a public record with. 0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:34.720 My father all. 0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:43.560 In the middle of the chaos, there's an almost farcical moment. 0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:47.960 Instead of addressing the twelve tactical officers in their living room, 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.800 Laura and jan start arguing with the police about which 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:53.480 chair is best for Ron to sit in. 0:18:54.000 --> 0:19:07.200 He can't sit in that share rollers chair, the black chair, 0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:09.280 the black chair. 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:12.080 You normally sit. 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:16.920 He'll roll in that one. 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:24.160 That's where he sits, so this one. 0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:30.320 Then Laura has another realization. The police have already confiscated 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:31.120 her mom's phone. 0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:35.760 Whoa, whoa, whoa. It does not say you guys can 0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:37.320 take my mom's It doesn't. 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:40.879 You can hear the panic rising in Laura's voice. She 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:45.119 seems suddenly desperately concerned about what the officers might find 0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:48.440 on her mom's device. The police hand her a copy 0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:52.040 of the warrant, but she only glances at it. 0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:55.200 Yes, I just did. On the person Laura Michelle Owen. 0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:57.560 Where does it say you can take my mom's phone? 0:19:57.720 --> 0:20:00.440 Jake Freeman warrant and it said you you can take 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:01.280 my mom's phone. 0:20:01.760 --> 0:20:03.160 Read it, don't just look through it. 0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:06.720 The officers aren't interested in the bickering. They're just trying 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.879 to move forward and finish securing the property so they 0:20:09.880 --> 0:20:11.639 can turn it over to the investigators. 0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:15.679 So we're serving the search more on behalf of the 0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:17.320 Maricopa County Attorney's office. 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:19.120 That's right, And I'm not saying where. 0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:24.840 It's six thirty in the morning, my god, sir, So 0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.720 for statute, we can serve a daytime search wark between 0:20:27.760 --> 0:20:28.720 the hours of six thirty in. 0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:29.760 The morning and ten at night. 0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:31.600 And this is important enough. 0:20:34.600 --> 0:20:36.879 So they are the investigators. 0:20:37.080 --> 0:20:40.320 Our role here was just securing the property.

We have merely secured the 0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:32.680 property on their behalf. 0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:36.600 This whole time. The investigators have been standing a few 0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:38.480 feet away, ready to get to work. 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:41.760 These are the County Attorney Office etectives.
