Miami Onlyfans Model Charges with Boyfriend’s Murder Requests Release from Jail in Court

A Miami social media model accused of fatally stabbing her boyfriend in 2022 was back in court Friday afternoon as her attorneys seek to have her released on bond.

A hearing was held for 28-year-old Courtney Clenney, who’s facing a second-degree murder charge in the April 2022 stabbing death of her boyfriend, 27-year-old Christian Obumseli, at the couple’s Edgewater condo.

Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said the couple had an “extremely tempestuous and combative relationship” and that Obumseli was the victim of domestic violence, while Clenney’s attorneys have said she was the victim of an abusive relationship and that she stabbed him in self-defense.

Clenney has remained jailed without bond while she awaits trial, but her attorneys are seeking to have her released. Defense attorneys maintain she threw knife at Obumseli in self-defense while trying to get away, and that she didn’t stab him at close range.

During Friday’s hearing, the defense called a forensic pathologist expert to show a knife-throwing demonstration they set up that involves an expert knife thrower tossing knives at a pig carcass.

They played video that showed the expert throwing knives identical to the one that killed Obumseli at the pig carcass from about five or six feet away.

About 50% of the knives stuck in the pig carcass, which the defense said shows Clenney could have thrown the knife as she claims.

But prosecutors argued that Clenney told police she threw the knife from about 10 feet away, a further distance than the expert threw from.

The defense is hoping that if they can show Clenney’s self-defense explanation is plausible, she should be released on bond.

The judge said she’ll issue her ruling on whether Clenney will be granted bond next month.

Clenney, who went by the name Courtney Tailor on social media, including on OnlyFans, had more than 2 million instagram followers at the time of Obumseli’s death.
