Ali Abulaban: The TikTok Murderer
Episode 3
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the shocking case of Ali Abulaban, known online as “JinnKid,” and later, as ""The TikTok Murderer."" In October 2021, the social media influencer brutally killed his estranged wife, Ana, and her friend, Ray Barron, inside a San Diego high-rise apartment. At first, Abulaban appeared to have it all: fame, followers and a picture-perfect family. But beneath the curated clips and comedy skits was a man consumed by jealousy, rage and a desperate need for validation. His obsession with his online persona was so overpowering that he secretly recorded his wife- and even captured the sound of her final moments. Candice explores how ego, fame and control collided in a digital age tragedy that blurred the line between reality and performance with deadly consequences.Be the first to know about Wondery’s newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
