    OnlyFans Star Stabs Boyfriend Claims Self-Defense, 911 Call Tells a Different Story | Courtney Clenney Case

    Courtney Clenney built a life online with millions of followers, millions of dollars, and a brand built on visibility. But behind the scenes, her relationship with Christian Obumseli was anything but picture perfect. On April 3, 2022, that relationship ended with a fatal stabbing inside their Miami apartment. Courtney called 911 crying and apologizing but later admitted she was the one who stabbed him. The case now centers on one question: was this self-defense, or was it the final moment in a pattern of escalating violence? With surveillance footage, secret recordings, and conflicting expert testimony, both sides are building very different versions of the same story. And years later, the case is still unfolding. Listen to the full case and then, let me know if you think it was self-defense. ************************************************************************************************ Podcast Promo: Darkcast Network ************************************************************************************************* Do you have thoughts about this case, or is there a specific true crime case you’d like to hear about?
