Clenney is expected to make a first appearance in local district court on Thursday, after which she will eventually be extradited to Florida.

Frank Prieto, Courtney’s lawyer, was quoted as describing her arrest as “shocking”.

The lawyer argued that there is clear evidence of self-defense on the part of the alleged killer.

Prieto also said she has been cooperating with the police investigation and offered to turn herself in if criminal charges were filed.

Sources were quoted as saying that Clenney was seeking treatment in Hawaii for PTSD and other issues related to the case.

Her lawyer also claimed she is a victim of domestic violence and human trafficking.
