OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney is charged with murder for stabbing her boyfriend to death

Courtney Clenney, the OnlyFans and Instagram model who fatally stabbed her boyfriend in Miami in April, has been arrested on murder charges, the Miami Herald has learned.

Clenney, 26, was taken into custody in Hawaii on Wednesday and will eventually be extradited to Miami-Dade County to face trial. She is charged with second-degree murder with a deadly weapon for the April 3 stabbing death of Christian “Toby” Obumseli.

Her arrest was confirmed Wednesday afternoon by her Miami attorney, Frank Prieto, who said she was in Hawaii while undergoing rehabilitation for drug abuse and post-traumatic stress disorder.

“I am completely shocked, especially because we cooperated with the investigation and offered to voluntarily extradite her if she were charged,” Prieto said. “We look forward to clearing her name in court.”

The Miami-Dade District Attorney’s Office said in a news release Wednesday evening that the warrant remains sealed. Prosecutor Katherine Fernandez, along with city Police Chief Manuel Morales and South Florida U.S. Marshal Gadyaces Serralta, will detail the arrest at a news conference Thursday afternoon.

The arrest caps a four-month investigation by Miami police homicide detectives and prosecutors into Clenney, whose killing of her boyfriend during a domestic dispute at a luxury Edgewater apartment made headlines around the world. Clenney’s defense attorney insisted she acted in self-defense and the killing was justified.

But in the days after his death, Obumseli’s relatives called for Clenney’s arrest, saying they did not believe he ever posed a threat.

Obumseli worked in the cryptocurrency space. Known as Courtney Tailor on her social media platforms, Clenney has over two million followers on her social media platforms.

She and Obumseli had been together for less than two years, and their relationship was marked by domestic conflict – she had once been arrested for domestic violence in Las Vegas, and the police had been called to her home in Austin, Texas, several times.

The two had been living in Miami for just a few months at the One Paraiso building, 3131 NE 7th Ave., where employees had documented numerous domestic disturbance complaints about the couple and even moved to evict them.

Clenney and Obumseli had broken up several times, although investigators believe he moved back into the apartment on the first day of April. The Miami Herald previously reported that Miami police responded to the apartment for another domestic violence call on April 1, two days before the stabbing.

Finally, on the evening of April 3, just before 5 p.m., Clenney frantically called 911 and reported that Obumseli had been stabbed.
