Laura Owens

And then I emailed her.

Hey, Laura, my understanding was we had an agreement.

Is that still the case?

And then like 10 minutes later, no, we don't have an agreement.

That was just a one-liner.

And then I had to break the news to Mike.

Hey, is this still on?

But he took that remarkably well.

I was like, well, if I get game on then, I guess back to the original plan.

I arrived at the San Francisco Superior Courthouse early on Tuesday morning, October 21st.

The hearing was scheduled for 9 a.m.

It wasn't long before a familiar face joined me, Clayton Eckert.

He traveled to San Francisco just for this hearing.

I'm here to support Mike.

I'm here because he showed up for me.

And that was it.

No matter what happens, no matter what the outcome is, I'm here to show Mike that I appreciate him.

That's it.

I'm like, I can pause all this shit in my life right now because honestly, this is more important than all that.

When Clayton had his family court trial against Laura the previous year, the courthouse in Arizona was filled with his supporters, including the content creators who'd been covering his story.
