Laptop Evidence Against Courtney Clenney Tossed
The Miami-Dade official shared her ruling on June 26, stating that the defense violated attorney-client privilege, per NBC Miami. Judge Cruz deemed those conversations inadmissible in court since they occurred between Deborah, Kim (Courtney’s dad), and their lawyers.
CBS News reports that Kim Dewayne and Deborah Clenney were arrested in January 2024 after they were accused of having Obumesli’s laptop. Prosecutors charged the parents with unauthorized access to a computer, computer system, or electronic device.
Courtney was handed the same charges in addition to second-degree murder. Her parents were later released. However, there was a warrant issued stating they must surrender by March 2024. They did so in February, posted bond, and were released again.

As previously reported by The Shade Room, Clenney was charged and arrested in the stabbing death of her boyfriend, Christian ‘Toby’ Obumseli, in August 2022.
Neighbors reportedly contacted the police after overhearing a domestic disturbance between the pair on April 3, 2022. Clenney admitted to stabbing Obumseli with a knife. Her attorney later stated it was in self-defense.
She was not arrested at the crime scene following the incident. Instead, Clenney was reportedly being treated at a Hawaii rehab center for substance abuse and post-traumatic disorder when cops finally nabbed her.

In the clip from February 2021, before the stabbing, Courtney could be seen punching Christian in an elevator. She steps on the elevator just before Obumseli and attempts to select a floor number. She appears frustrated, and Christian attempts to calm her down. Clenney is seemingly enraged and pulls her boyfriend’s hair many times. Obumseli appears to attempt to de-escalate the situation by pushing Courtney back.
The prosecution in Clenney’s trial has yet to reveal if they will continue to pursue charges against her parents. Additionally, on June 28, a judge will reveal how the ruling will affect the overall trial.
