Courtney Clenney’s parents have been arrested for alleged evidence tampering in the murder case of Christian Obumseli.
According to the report by TMZ, Courtney Clenney’s parents Kim and Deborah Clenney were arrested at their Austin, TX home Tuesday in connection with the murder case, and it has something to do with potential evidentiary tampering.
Sources with direct knowledge told TMZ that Courtney Clenney’s parents were taken into custody by law enforcement in Travis County on a warrant out of Miami.
The allegation boils down to a laptop that belonged to Courtney’s late boyfriend, Christian Obumseli, which our sources say remained in their Miami apartment after he was killed in an argument last year.
Courtney’s dad, Kim, went back to their unit to clear out her stuff in the aftermath, and in the process, stumbled across this laptop, which we’re told had not been impounded as evidence when police first went through after the incident, according to TMZ.
TMZ sources say Courtney gave her father the password, and he got in but found nothing but a crypto exchange on the hard drive. After that, he notified Courtney’s defense attorney about it and handed it off to the legal team.
At this point, TMZ sources say they are still in custody and the exact charges are a bit unclear, but they have a bond hearing in court Wednesday.
