As her birthday approached in May, Abdi said, Kazemi wanted the family to visit Nashville. “Don’t buy me any gifts, just come and spend my birthday with me,” she told Abdi and her sister. Abdi said they met and partied with McNair at local clubs.
Still, the family was hoping she’d reconsider moving back to Florida. The family was worried about the rapid relationship and the extravagance that came with it. “She was in a Bentley and I don’t think it was right because there are jealous people,” Abdi said. “People were telling her that they didn’t have anyone to pay their bills or buy them things.” Kazemi first came to Nashville nearly four years ago with her then-boyfriend, Keith Norfleet.
