A TikTok star on trial for shooting dead his estranged wife and her lover told jurors he “snapped” after seeing them cuddling on the couch — and just couldn’t stop spraying bullets at them.

Ali Abulaban, 32, took to the stand to testify in his own defense Wednesday after being charged over the October 2021 slayings of his wife, Ana Abulaban, 28, and her friend Rayburn Cadenas Barron, 29, in San Diego, NBC7 reported.

The social media personality copped to punching his wife three times in the face in an earlier argument in which she claimed to have slept with one of his friends.

He grew so paranoid about her cheating that he used his young daughter’s iPad to bug the luxury high-rise apartment they’d once shared — then burst in and found Ana and Barron embracing.

OMG! I pounced on the “cuddle” part and assumed it was a girl-girl thing.

Still, fooling around with a married person is dangerous, no matter where on the spectrum things are.

Yuk, he’s disgusting. Dead wife was beautiful and “friend” was really cute. What a shame.

Hey, it was just an “honor” killing. If only we already had Sharia law...

What in the H-E-double-hockey sticks is a “Tik-Tok star?”

“Where did you get that strange idea?”

I didn’t even finish reading the headline in my rush to post something clever. “Cuddling” is such an odd term that it was just the first funny thing that popped into my head.

I’ll try to do better in the future. :)

Maybe they should’ve said, “kanoodling”.

Prosecutors had earlier argued that Ana kicked Abulaban out of their 35th-floor apartment just days earlier and was done with their marriage following a string of alleged domestic violence incidents.

Throw the book at him.

[Ali Abulaban? I guess that is all you need to know.]


This is actually a fairly conventional murder. The stereotypically Muslim ones are when a man kills his sister for fornication, or his mother for adultery.

From canoodling. A little more amorous than cuddling.

Go to YouTube and look up, Tony Montana meets John Wick, the guy was pretty funny and had some talent. He was just starting to get paid for his work when he went off the deep end and murdered his wife and her friend.

[Cheating garden tool of a wife ... I guess that is all you need to know.

Still ... there are better ways to handle it. Ways that don’t as likely lead to criminal prosecution.]


Such as moving on, finding another girl. This is a recurring issue not just among Muslims but along the Mediterranean and in the Balkans. Happens more in the Muslim world where perps get a slap on the wrist.
