Jeffrey Leving, the Chicago paternity attorney hired by 20-year-old Mariah Yeater, says his client has not withdrawn her claim, although it sounds like some members of her legal team have dropped off the case because of death threats.
“I did not step down and there is a legal team. It’s a new legal team. In light of death threats against my client, strategies have been reviewed...” Leving told US network WGNtv over the phone.
“She believes Justin Bieber is the father. Right now there’s no more interviews for Mariah Yeater, I’m not going to allow that. Secondly, negotiations are going on right now with Bieber’s counsel and we’re trying to negotiate a private, secure DNA test with the same safe guards that would exist if there were a court order, but without a court order.
“The case is completely out of control and I don’t want something terrible to happen to my client or her child.
“My goal is that when the DNA test is completed, which I believe it will be...my goal is to keep everything confidential so the results will remain confidential,” he said.
Guess that means we may never find out if the kid is Bieber's or not!
