I’m back with my friend Clayton Echard! The last time we saw Clayton was right before his trial, and now he's here to catch us up on everything that went down! Clayton shares how he walked into the courtroom confident of a win, only to have his demeanor completely shift when he saw Laura and her entourage. He reveals the shocking lies she told on the stand, how his legal team absolutely dominated the courtroom, and the powerful moment when two of Laura’s other victims showed up to support him. We discuss how Laura refuses to admit she needs mental help, instead lashing out at the judge. Clayton talks about the incredible support community behind him who have been uncovering more of her lies. We also dive into the dramatic shift in public support for Clayton and how some people actually wanted him to be guilty. Clayton shares some of the interesting DMs he received after his season was released on streaming and how he’s been handling the ongoing challenges. Don't miss this revealing conversation as Clayton opens up like never before.
