Courtney Clenney made a wise plea deal Monday ... because she could be a free woman in less than 2 years.

Courtney, who was facing second-degree murder, pled guilty to manslaughter in the 2022 death of her boyfriend Christian Obumseli. Courtney and prosecutors agreed to a sentence of 6 years in prison, but she gets credit for time served, and she's been behind bars 4 years to the day.
