SAN DIEGO - Opening statements were expected to be delivered Wednesday in the murder trial for a social media personality accused of fatally shooting his wife and another man at an East Village high-rise apartment building.
Police who responded on the afternoon of Oct. 21 found both victims dead on a couch in the living room of the Abulabans' 35th floor unit. Abulaban, who went by the handle JinnKid on various social media platforms, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, allegations of using a handgun in the slayings, and a special-circumstance allegation of committing multiple murders. His trial is expected to last about a month.Ana Abulaban asked her husband to move out of their apartment, but according to testimony from a preliminary hearing more than two years ago, he secretly made a copy of the apartment key.
While listening to the app later that day, he overheard his wife and a man"giggling," SDPD Det. Sgt. Christopher Leahy testified, then drove to the complex from a Mission Bay hotel where he was staying.
