Courtney Clenney’s lawyer recently blasted the charges filed against the embattled OnlyFans model’s parents in connection to the stabbing death of Christian Obumseli, RadarOnline.com can report.
In the latest development to come after Kim and Deborah Clenney were both arrested and charged with one count of unauthorized access to a computer back in January, Courtney’s lawyer spoke out to call the charges “unethical” and “completely inappropriate.”
Kim and Deborah Clenney were both arrested and charged with one count of unauthorized access to a computer back in January.
According to Courtney’s lawyer, the charges against the embattled OnlyFans model’s parents were filed as a “kind of delay tactic” by the prosecutors.
"I don't think that this will impact the trial but what I do think it is is a kind of delay tactic by the state attorney's office," Sabrina Puglisi told the Sun over the weekend. "It was completely inappropriate.”
"That laptop was a shared laptop and [Courtney] had access to it similar to anybody who has a spouse or a significant other,” Courtney’s lawyer continued. "To me, this is the state attorney not feeling confident in their case and trying to discredit the parents, trying to discredit the attorneys and really take away from what we all should be focusing on, which is preparing for trial.”
Puglisi went on to call the charges against Courtney’s parents “unethical.”
"All of that taints their prosecution. They targeted our clients Kim and Deborah, for no reason," said lawyer Jude Faccidomo, who represents the Clenneys.
"We can actually get this in front of a jury instead of right now, we're having to delay that case so that we can focus on these new charges and these allegations and all that,” Puglisi charged.
"I just feel like this is really unethical behavior from the State Attorney and their office," she told the Sun.

"The access to the computer was part of the defense of Courtney Clenney and was an authorized access and it does not fall within the parameters of the statute that they charge,” Jude Faccidomo explained.

"I think what you will ultimately see as this case is litigated, is that this statute was something they pulled out of thin air and does not apply to the facts of this case,” Faccidomo added.
Courtney, 27, pleaded not guilty to the charge of second-degree murder. She remains behind bars awaiting trial.
