An American influencer, model Courtney Clenney alias Tailor, has been arrested by the Hawaii Police Department for stabbing Nigerian boyfriend, Christian Tobechukwu Obumseli, to death.
According to information gathered, a release by the Hawaii Police Department stated that a warrant was issued for the arrest of 26-year-old Clenney on allegations of second-degree murder with a deadly weapon.
Clenney’s attorney, Frank Prieto, revealed that she was at a rehab facility in Hawaii for substance abuse and post-traumatic stress disorder when she was picked up by police.
Prieto also stated that Clenney’s arrest was shocking because of the clear evidence of self-defense in this matter.
It could be recalled that the Miami Fire Rescue personnel took Tobechukwu to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center where a doctor pronounced him dead.
His family has however been calling for justice after Courtney was not charged under the Baker Act, over considerations for her mental health.
Clenney is expected to make a first appearance in local district court on Thursday, after which she will eventually be extradited to Florida.
