OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney sentenced to 6 years for stabbing her boyfriend to death in 2022

Former OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney has been sentenced to six years in prison after pleading guilty to manslaughter in the stabbing death of her boyfriend.

Clenney will also serve five years of probation as part of her sentence.

Her legal team confirmed to CBS News Miami that she took a plea deal in the 2022 incident at the couple's Miami apartment.

The Prieto Law Firm and Puglisi-Carames, Clenney's attorney, said in a statement that "the terms of the agreement are not final until accepted by the Court."

A follow-up statement from the attorney for Christian Obumseli's family said more information would be shared during a sentencing hearing on Aug. 10.

"On behalf of the Obumseli family, I am pleased to announce that Defendant Courtney Clenney, the State, and the Obumseli family have reached a resolution that would avoid an unnecessary trial. The resolution will be made public at a sentencing hearing on August 10th at 10 a.m. Pleading guilty and accepting full responsibility will begin the process of bringing closure to a very tragic, life-changing event for the Obumseli family," the statement read. 

Clenney, 30, who amassed 2 million followers on Instagram as Courtney Tailor, initially pleaded not guilty of fatally stabbing Obumseli, 27, on April 3, 2022, in their "One Paraiso" condo in Edgewater. 

Her attorneys had previously argued that Clenney acted in self-defense during a domestic dispute. 

The firm said that they will not be commenting any more on the plea agreement until August 10, when they will be presenting the specific terms to the Court.
