The Daily Beast reports:
For years, Rep. Lauren Boebert’s mother has maintained that a retired professional wrestler named Stan Lane, with whom she had a fling in the 1980s, was the congresswoman’s biological father. A court-ordered paternity test completed decades ago showed that, in fact, Lane was not the dad. But some doubts on the Boebert side of things persisted because the lab worker who took Lane’s blood sample was later convicted of taking a bribe to switch vials in another case.
Because of those questions, last month, the Colorado Republican and Lane agreed to take another round of tests and put the matter to rest once and for all. The results are in—and Boebert, 36, said the DNA analysis shows that Lane, 69, still isn’t her father. “I can confirm that Stan Lane is not my biological father. I personally have never publicly claimed he was my father—but certainly, that allegation is out there,” she told The Daily Beast, which reviewed the test results.
Pro Wrestling Insider has a statement from Lane:
Early in my wrestling career while I was living in Florida and working for Championship Wrestling from Florida, I received notice that a woman I had a short affair with was accusing me of fathering her child. We went through the legal system and completed a court ordered paternity test. I was declared not to be the father and the case was dismissed.
In spite of the court verdict, the mother of the child – who turned out to be Congresswoman Lauren Boebert – her mother has continued to stick to her original claim. I agreed to take another DNA Paternity test with Lauren Boebert in May 2023.
The results came back on May 11,2023. They were conclusive that I had a 0.0% chance of being the biological father. Once we both reviewed the results Lauren and I agreed that this matter is settled, and I accepted Lauren’s apology on behalf of herself and her mother.
Apparently Boebert’s mother harassed the guy for child support for decades. No paywall here.
Stan Lane has been dogged by accusations that he got the congresswoman’s mother pregnant during a brief affair. https://t.co/64BlzJMn51
