According to Clenney defense, she threw a knife at Christian in self-defense after fearing for her life during a domestic dispute. 
Clenney admitted to stabbing Obumseli but claimed she did not intend to kill him, and in the footage she was seen on the floor sobbing, ‘baby, baby, baby, wake up.’
While talking to police as paramedics tried to save Obumseli, she told them: ‘I’m terrified of him’ and ‘I was so scared,’ the footage showed. 
However, the medical examiner’s report stated that the autopsy on Obumseli showed his wound could not have been caused by a knife thrown from that distance.
Clenney alleged she was in an abusive relationship with Obumseli, and maintained that text messages and witness testimony would show she feared for her life. 
The model, who had used the name Courtney Tailor on platforms like Instagram and OnlyFans, filed court records earlier this month asking jurors to consider the defense’s account of Clenney and Obumseli’s relationship in the case.

Courtney Clenney claimed there were at least nine times Christian Obumseli was abusive, allegedly punching her in the face and fracturing her ribs — in the months before he was killed in April 2022.
One of the proposed messages showed that Clenney accused her late boyfriend of hitting her ‘in my face as hard as you could’.
In response to her remonstration, Obumseli she claimed, didn’t appear too fazed. According to her filing, Obumseli told her that he was only trying to move her hand and ‘really didn’t mean to,’
The defense had also planned to introduce witnesses to the alleged abuse along with images of Clenney showing visible injuries. 
In previously released bodycam footage, police were seen entering Clenney and Obumseli’s Miami apartment at around 5pm on April 3, 2022. 
Clenney was covered in blood, but when officers told her to step away from Obumseli, pleading: ‘I can’t let this happen… it wasn’t me.’ 
As she was handcuffed, she added: ‘I am covered in his blood because I was trying to save him… I need him, he was my other half.’

In the background of the footage, Obumseli could be heard still alive, as he cried out: ‘I can’t feel my arm.’ 
Clenney was arrested and booked into custody, and Obumseli was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital. 
Graphic case photos have revealed she stabbed her much larger boyfriend inches above a tattoo of her name in cursive on the left side of his chest.
While Clenney has argued that she acted in self-defense, attorneys representing Obumseli’s family have rejected that claim and said he was the victim of domestic violence at the hands of the model. 
While the autopsy report appeared to debunk that defense on the grounds that Obumseli’s wound could not have been caused by a knife thrown from that distance, her parents, Kim and Deborah Clenney, were previously taken into custody for breaking in and stealing Obumseli’s computer. However, the couple were later released.
