Courtney Clenney’s lawyer blasts ‘special treatment’ after Christian Toby Obumseli death & makes human trafficking claim

COURTNEY Clenney's lawyer denies she had 'special treatment' after Christian 'Toby' Obumseli's death - plus he claims the woman was a victim of human trafficking.

Clenney's lawyer, Frank Prieto, spoke exclusively to The US Sun in the wake of the events involving Clenney and Obumseli.

"Since the events of that tragic night, Courtney has been filled with absolute grief and despair," Prieto began.

"Courtney is mourning the loss of Mr. Obumseli, in private, out of respect for his family.

"There is nothing we can say to alleviate the pain his family is going through; however, their calls for justice and an arrest in this matter are misplaced.             

Prieto continued: "Justice in this matter calls for no arrest or charges. It is absolutely irresponsible for the family’s attorney (who was not present and has not seen the evidence in this case) to allege that the events of that evening were “unprovoked” or to insinuate that she is being afforded special treatment.

Prieto goes on to say there is "competent and substantial evidence" that Clenney is a "victim of domestic violence and possibly human trafficking."

"There is no doubt the two of them had a tumultuous relationship; moreover, there is evidence that Courtney was a victim of physical, emotional, and mental abuse at the hands of Obumseli.

"That night was no different and Courtney had the right to defend herself out of fear for her life. Courtney cooperated with the investigators and her actions were clearly self-defense."

Courtney, an influencer known on her social media platforms as Courtney Tailor, was detained and later taken to a mental institution after killing 27-year-old Obumseli, cops said.

Police responded to a 911 call from Clenney at around 5pm on April 3 at the Miami, Florida luxury apartment building the couple lived in. There, they found her boyfriend stabbed once in the shoulder.

Obumseli later died of his injuries after being transported to a local hospital.

Officers said that the violence was caused by a domestic dispute.

"We know that there was a physical altercation between them before he was stabbed," a Miami PD spokesperson said.
