‘Is love going to kill me?’ Slain boyfriend’s texts reveal other stabbings by OnlyFans model

MIAMI — On one occasion last year, Christian “Toby” Obumseli claimed, he was stabbed in the leg so badly that he could barely walk. A day later, he said he was hit in the head hard enough that he believed he suffered a concussion.

Finally, in late January, Obumseli suffered two nasty cuts to the cheek and chin, wounds he documented in photos and that were severe enough that he went to the hospital for stitches.

Newly released text-message conversations from Obumseli’s iCloud account reveal that he said his attacker was his girlfriend, OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney, who on April 3 would fatally plunge a knife into his chest during yet another heated argument inside their luxury Miami apartment. The texts, now evidence in the murder case against Clenney, also reveal that weeks before his death, Obumseli agonized in a message to her about being subjected to her racial slurs and spiraling violence.
