Overview
- Defense lawyers and the victim’s attorney confirmed on Aug. 3 that Clenney has reached a negotiated plea that would avoid a trial.
- The specific charges Clenney will plead to and the length of any sentence are sealed and will be placed on the record for Judge Andrea Ricker Wolfson to accept or reject on Aug. 10.
- Clenney has been jailed without bond since her arrest in August 2022 after prosecutors reopened the probe into the April 3, 2022 stabbing in the couple’s Miami Edgewater condo.
- Prosecutors point to a Feb. 21, 2022 elevator video and autopsy findings they say are inconsistent with Clenney’s self-defense claim while her lawyers have prepared a battered‑spouse defense.
- The Obumseli family settled a separate wrongful‑death suit with the condo and said the resolution with Clenney would spare them a trial and begin the process of closure.
