Courtney Clenney, the former OnlyFans model convicted in the fatal stabbing of her boyfriend, has been transferred to another Florida prison and is now classified as a minimum-custody inmate. State records show she could be released in less than two years.
Clenney, 30, pleaded guilty in August to first-degree manslaughter with a deadly weapon under a negotiated agreement that brought a six-year prison sentence. She had originally faced a second-degree murder charge in the April 2022 death of her boyfriend, 27-year-old Christian Obumseli.
Florida Department of Corrections records list Clenney as an inmate at Gadsen Correctional Facility, though the timing of her transfer is not publicly clear. She had previously been held at the Florida Women’s Reception Center.
The records list July 20, 2028, as Clenney’s projected release date. After leaving prison, she is expected to serve five years of probation.

Although Clenney received her sentence in August, she was credited for nearly four years already spent in custody while the criminal case moved through the courts.
Following her release, Clenney must complete mental health and substance abuse assessments and participate in any recommended treatment.

Prosecutors also said the plea agreement prevents Clenney from financially profiting from Obumseli’s death. They indicated they would cooperate with any effort by the Florida Attorney General’s Office to enforce that provision.

“We do believe that nobody should benefit financially from murdering somebody,” Assistant State Attorney Shawn Abuhoff said during the sentencing hearing. “So we will provide any evidence that they request. We’ll work hand in hand with the attorney general’s office if they so seek to do some form or lien or some financial proceeding against Miss Clenney.”

During Clenney’s sentencing, Obumseli’s mother said her son had remained in a deeply troubled relationship with Clenney despite earlier incidents of violence.
“No sentence, no plea can bring back my son to me,” she said.

“Your actions have left the Obumseli family with a void that can never be filled,” a representative for the family said. “A chair where a family gathers for holidays will always remain empty.”
Clenney’s lawyers have argued that Obumseli abused her and described her as a battered partner. His family has rejected those claims, maintaining that Obumseli was the victim of domestic violence.
