TikTok Star Murder Trial: Witness Testimony | CA v Ali Abulaban 

Thank You so much for covering this case.

She drove him to do this, but he should had controlled himself. Anyone can black out in a case like this so tragic!!!

He’s toast!

What do I think about what exactly?

Guilty of 1st degree murder

And what not to do like Anna in this case.

And what not to do like Anna in this case.

You can’t blame yourself for other people action babe, I hope you get out of your situation real soon!

Ali is so conspicuous, he is a very dangerous personality in a relationship. Unfortunately, young women often don’t have the experience it takes to recognize the personality. They often think that they can fix the relationship by cooperating. Victims are typically sympathetic personalities, they forgive again and again. If they get out alive, they are most likely traumatized by a person like Ali.

@@ManuelaCircowhen you’re married to a narcissist, it’s ten times worse trying to get a divorce for a start. They are like leeches, they control and manipulate, you’re the one who seems crazy. But, hey, you have to have lived with one to know. I don’t expect people to know what a snake Ali is. 😔🙏🏽

Still arrogant. Just not violently insane

No drugs.​@@andrewgonzalez6208

I hope someone makes him their bi#$h in jail.

@@andrewgonzalez6208he was violent then, not insane. And it’s very apparent that his capacity for violence is still alive and active.

@@yagovmolotov5127 really that’s your take away from this.

@@yagovmolotov5127looks like the incel boys are checking in! 🤦🏼‍♂️😆

Ali is a conspicuous narcissistic misogynist. The most dangerous time in an abusive relationship is in the leaving. Often victims listen to the voices around them, saying to just leave, don’t let him push you around. They underestimate the potential for violence. The victims risk their lives for their freedom.

⁠get a g_n. Most people never have any courage to fight or defend themselves. That’s why these types are always so abusive because people enable them. The reason why he brought a gun was because he was afraid to fight ray. So he ambushed him.

Not blaming her. Just saying she was stupid af for bringing a dude up to her apartment hours after her enraged violently jealous husband had trashed it.

​@@markusrose9667that's victim blaming, Mark.

@@cancandoit no it isn’t it’s telling people not to act retarded.

@@markusrose9667nice gaslighting and victim blaming there Marko…🤦🏼‍♂️

@@edf9682 nice use of trendy words ed.

He said Claire was here safe haven

Are you counting prison as a movie?

I think the court tv drama unfolding is what they mean.

Bubba has a good role for him hell be a prison princess

@@Bigbubba3031yeah with that long hair!

mine as well...poor little Amira....she lost her mother at such a young age

@@robinsmith3987 She lost both parents. One from murder, and two, the dad is incarcerated. He is going to spend the rest of his life behind bars.

@@brianwhite284Crazy how he didn’t think about his daughter but of course after he did what he did he thought about his daughter.

Nice original comment 🙄

She insinuated most of it

​@@Kaykayu98 were you there??? How dare you? She's not alive to give her side of the story because he killed her. He also was on the stand for 3 days and admitted to the several times he beat her up. He's dangerous. I don't care how mad you are male or female- you don't shoot that person or batter them!!!!

@@lucindalynnxoexactly & there is spot deep down in hell for anybody justifying his actions. Any of these people playing the victim blaming game would want support if this was their situation.

@@lucindalynnxo he should’ve got a heat of passion trial, it’s literally the definition… she didn’t deserve to die and he didn’t deserve to see her being a hoe with their friend

@Kaykayu98 you're not even using word "insinuated" correctly. Idiot.

Two words: reactive abuse. Study it.

@@robertsolorzano4207 Again it’ll never be justifiable.

So true. It’s actually hard to comprehend that someone could be such a monster until you’ve dealt with one personally.

Victims are always living by their abusers rules, it is self preservation. Not only can you not control the outcome by your movements they will abuse you for outside events. There is no rationale to why they abuse, it has nothing to do with the victim.

​@robertsolorzano4207 what is your point?! Reactive abuse is a REACTION TO COMPOUNDED INSTANCES OF ABUSE.

51:47 Camera zoomed in 😂😂

Ana was stupid af to bring man up to her apt knowing enraged violent husband had just trashed the place four hours earlier.This isn’t trashing her. This is warning others not to be dumb like her.

Which woman.? Sanchez? I missed that bit

​@@sheilakammoun1673 yes

That wasn’t the reason she befriended her…

Oh you mean she was a cokehead 😂

I am agree with you. He is a killer, but she’s a player. She loved to play with men’s sorry that’s what she gets she should take marriage time serious not a joke just to come to America, they using American kids as a ladder to get whatever they want again don’t take me wrong. He’s a killer, but she’s a. She’s a player.

Agree. I wrote to both courttv and law and crime. It is a disgrace case was not fully live streamed. Men calling the shots downplayed how critical this domestic violence case is. My guess too many men running the networks are abusers and voted fully live streaming. Disgusting.

Exactly. Not televised, but live on RU-vid.

whole murderer and you decide to insult people with attention deficit disorder for some reason?

@@anmyarchive who are you to decide what people can or cannot say ? smh

DIDNT find DV IMPORTANT !!

I think it was race of the victims and perpetrator

Perhaps costs?

This is California...San Diego, no TV allowed live in California Court's. But afterwards Court TV picks it up. And here we all are.

@@rosered103did you forget OJ Simpson case⁉️

Both of them wrong a lot of women from overseas they try to get married from American kids just to come to America not because she love her husband and this what happened they want to live in America dream

Fake news

She was not mentally stable either

@@TheDecider2024The only instability she had in her life was him

@@TheDecider2024she died while clutching to a bag of cocaine while about to do something with this ray guy while her daughter was in the apartment lol

Why did he hate Ray so much?

@@littlepal3197because Ray was everything Ali wasn‘t.Kind, empathetic & could get along with people.Narcissists hate those that are comfortable in their own skin.

@@stardustboy94 That makes a lot of sense 🤔. Thank you!

Good synopsis of the crime scene!

i absolutely agree she did not seem to understand the danger she was in. When she saw the apartment trashed, the first thing she should've done was call 911, change locks. Can't blame her for inviting Ray, I think she wanted some sense of safety with him there rather than setting up any kind of confrontation. Um this woman was TIRED of his sh*t. She did not want nor need to be the subject of Ali's rage once more. Regardless he was going to unalive her one day or another. Ana was never going to get out of it alive and Ali made sure of that. The most dangerous time in a DV relationship is when you are leving. Or did you not also hear of the Florida killer who took a plane from miami to serbia, then drove from serbia to spain to unalive the ex. so not even if you move continents are you safe.

I wish she would've changed her locks or something 😢

She should have moved an not told anyone

That wasn't really an option unless she was willing to go on the run from the law completely undercover. You can't forget that they have a child. He could initiate legal proceedings against her for taking off with their daughter, and in the eyes of the law that's kidnapping.

He was the sole provider. She had no resources.

He would have followed her. He is nuts and it's extremely easy to stalk people these days.

You're correct, gotta help from a distance sadly

Police and DV shelters… useless.

He actually had short hair when he murdered them so I think he wanted a different look… another of his many failures in life.

I Can't hear it either.

I put in both of my earbuds and turned up the volume. So maybe headphones 🎧 will help.

DFX Audio Enhancer.

it seems strange that the police precincts and the courts cannot figure out how to adequately record these events. It’s always so frustrating.

@@John-kv7jo Is That A Mobile App That Enhances The Sound Quality Within Other Apps? Orrrr? & Is It Available On All Devices?

Horrible….he is a reckless, dangerous, maniac. Would be miserable to be around him. 😪

She was worse, clubbing, drugs, sleeping around, mind games etc... She's the one that introduced him to cocaine too

Both were toxic.

@@Kaykayu98oh, were you living with them?

😂😂😂😂

That ain't his cousin 😂

Exactly

The dirrrttty DA got owned along with the adulterer

If he is a true narcissist she didn't initially see this side of him. They love bomb in the beginning.

See the Mica Miller case.. that scumbag of a “pastor” is even more devious and manipulative that this scumbag here.

Ali’s enormous ego insisted that he betray his lawyers and speak anyway. He’s a true narcissist. 😢

This is not a production of court tv. Cameras are not allowed in California courts. This is the court’s feed that is then released to court tv by the judge. This is not a movie.

@@maryammosavi269 Mary, I have been watching this trial all along. This stream was ridiculous.

You think the 2 people got murder is ridiculous! What is wrong with you! This is not a show. This is real life!

Can’t hear any of them!

😂

I don't understand your last comment. Clearly he should take the stand, so everyone can truly see how demented he is.

​@@jazzyg530It always amazes me when people encourage deceit and subterfuge to beat Justice.....

It’s every defendants right to take the stand or not. A lawyer cannot force them either way

It was great that he took he stand. Why object to that? he hung himself even further. It was actually a great thing.

No but they mostly recommend against he obviously sunk his ship deeper

No parole.

They do understand, they're just doing their job defending ali

they get it, but they're willing to engage in victim-blaming and misogyny, in order to make their predatory groomer of a client look less loathsome. they know a lot of society is just as gross as Ali, i mean look at these comments

That's a stupid, shitty thing to do........to willing engage in sex and drugs and then cop out by saying she was vulnerable and later it felt "icky". Even if that's the case, you can't use that as the basis of condemning someone later and berating their character. Ali was shitty for alot of things and a narcissistic, abusive, selfish POS but Miss Sanchez is fking disgusting and needs to stfu and blame herself for what happened.

​@@adminRQ😒😒😒😒🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

or VICE VERSA. with women abusers.

He was her gate to the USA

Exactly

from the picture that was shown their bodies were together.. sooooo.. it could have been if they were scared . but i think he went in.. gun drawn and saw them together... we will never know.. this deranged guy chases his tail when he talks.

They showed that?

Ray was there to smash

lol yea ray didn’t like Anna at all. Sure… because if you actually watched the whole trial it’s already proven her and ray were doing cocaine together and doing things for a long time during the relationship with Ali. that’s why she called him to come over the next day, lmao

@@hooaah5561 was she cheating on him before he cheated on her?

Right! He seems like a nice guy. Was really trying to be there for both of them. Other people wouldn’t have been nearly as helpful. I mean he even left his door open so she felt safer! He gave Ali benefit of the doubt and even tried to be a friend to him! Gets grilled by defense 😮

The character in the move Scarface, was NOT Sicilian!! He was a scumbag Cuban, who escaped Cuba. K?

@@casadelmaghrebYou understand you’re only repeating this monster’s paranoid delusions, right? There’s no proof of ANY of that.🤦🏻‍♀️

@@casadelmaghreb but we r all assuming because he said she was cheating. She told her best friends she was just friends. Until I heard from her own mouth she was cheating I wouldn’t believe a thing he said. He had trashed her place maybe he was there because he was worried about him coming back and hurting her which he did. My ex thought I was also cheating and I had one good friend male who spent many a night in the spare room because I was so scared of my ex. Until he was caught and put in jail over something not to do with me did I feel safe. And quess what my friend married someone else and I remarried someone else. We r still very good friends to this day. It happens. But if she was cheating he did too. So WTF. She still didn’t deserve to die nor ray. I think he is demented and crazy

@@SharonBrown-yn6fz Well why was Anna too scared to tell her friend (Rays Ex) that they were even speaking if it was all innocent. Obviously there was more to the story than they are letting on here. Either way it doesnt matter if she was cheating or not 2 have died and a little girl lost both her parents. But Anna could have prevented all this by leaving, i would have ran to his fathers so he could have followed and the father could have slapped some sense into him.

@@SharonBrown-yn6fz 1. Wasn't "her" place. It was still LEGALLY Ali and her daughters HOME. 2. Ray Had no right to be there. 3. There is professional help for DV victoms and legal procedures one must talke. 4.Ana shoud have ,sobered up, and relocated for the sake of he rdaughter. But we know she said "she didn't want her kid, and didnt care i she ended up in foster care" 5. If one must cheat before divorcing or while 'seperated dont bring a man to your childs home and at least go elsewhere. Or just stop hanging out with men and partying.. , failing to adult. I think, her bevaior was crazy and reckless..

@@casadelmaghreb imagine sinking to the level of being a "murderer groupie." Seek help. You're embarrassing yourself.

He had the talent for imitation for sure, I agree, if he was smart about it he could have gone far. But he sabotaged himself when he live streamed his treatment of Ana. He would have lost any mainstream audience and forget about any sponsors. No company’s going to associate with DV. In the end, I don’t think he had the maturity or mental stability to be a success as an influencer. He’s one sick puppy..

He was indeed genuinely talented. The only "TikTok star" I actually paid any attention to. I found him long before the TikTok days on IG I think around 2017-2018. He seemed like he was on his way to legitimate stardom and Ana was featured in a lot of his videos. As were a number of other people who appeared to be his friends. Who knows if he kept it together most of the time and San Diego was just the boiling over point but from testimony it sounds like he always had issues. Just shows once again that social media isn't real life.

He has extreme anti social disorder. So he wouldn’t have gotten far. He discusses how bad he is with all people during the trial.

He couldn't do anything but Al Pacino impressions. A "star in the making?" lol Even professional impersonators can do more than one impression. 🤣

He f-in sucked. His acting was horrendous.

Maybe it’s wax i cleaned my ears before and took out a lot of wax and then I was able to hear perfectly

@@Amt3983 oh good for you I'm happy that worked for you

Ana had several options as a way out, and opportunities to Relocate, change her circumstances, better herself, file for TRO and file for divorce. WHO stopped her from getting 'professional' help? She could havee stopped partying or hey here's a htought not bring a man to Their home and go get 'professional' help /support for DV.

Ana was allowed to do whatever she wanted, as was Ali. So Ali could bring a women to the apartment and sleep with her but ana couldn't talk to a friend on the couch? She deserved to die for that? It's her fault that Ali didn't like her talking to anyone else? The moral of the story is don't try to be nice, just ghost and leave 💯 she was trying to be cordial with him but he couldn't take a hint. That's why I say to ghost. Because to men like this any attention is good attention. Ana and Ray did not deserve to die and they were not provoking him. He provoked himself 🤡

Ana did not talk him or show up uninvited anywhere. He was the one that kept pursuing her. She kept trying to get away from him, but her mistake was she kept giving in to him because he was promising her fairytales but then beating her a** so the cycle kept going intil she tried to break the cycle but he just couldn't let go.. on his own two feet he ran to that apartment and with his own two hands and eyes he killed those people. It's disgusting and there's no excuse

​@casadelmaghr That's what we call victim blaming. So easy to play Monday morning quarterback. I'm sure everybody involved wished they would have done things differently. It's a cautionary tale.

@@casadelmaghreb I call it a cautionary tale.

And his name similar to “Prince Ali” “ Ali Abuabua “ lol

Hahaha

​@@janettepacheco3817omg 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Wait until you guys know what his surname means in Arabic. It's hilarious! It means the "father of yoghurt"

@@roubanashabe3490 hashhshshs

Try headphone 🎧

I'm sure if she thought she was going to be shot to death she would have done anything else.

Social media “feeds” narcissists ! Everyone should educated themselves on how to see the red flags 🚩

Celebrities, politicians, religious leaders and other public figures, too. They are drawn to the attention and control and the way they can use their following and their prestige both to hide in plain sight and also to use them as flying monkeys. My ex was a violent narcissist and a religious leader. His community of followers shield him and protect him. He is also obsessed with social media attention, follower count and likes.

Me too. Don't understand why anyone thinks it's acceptable to take another person's life when they want to exit a bad relationship or marriage.

Shooting at cars? Why was he doing that?

@childofthemosthighyah8145 he went to a gun range that he been a regular at. Did a run out with a gun. Then, he was shooting at cars driving past him. Sammy wasn't mentally well at the time and wanted to die by cop most likely. But he looks like Ali same nose,eye, and a big fella, too. Goggle it

@@kirenjattan9885 thanks I most definitely will. The entire family is crazy!

Ummm that young girl was not a victim 😆. Wtf is with you people and acting like adult girls aren't responsible for their decisions. Gtfo here

Exactly what I was thinking. The friend she was staying with lived on a military base so he knew better than to show up there and mess with her. He knew if he let her move back into the apartment that he could have easier access to her.

@@jordienav5603 What you said would have stuck had she not boldy and insanley briought Ray into Ali and her daughters home...

@@jordienav5603yup, I agree. It was a way for him to maintain access to her smh he’s a sick twisted man

​@@casadelmaghrebgrow up. inviting ray, bob, joe, whoever does NOT mean you can 3xecute people. you are just like him. this is NOT how society works. with your logic, ana should've done him like that when he invited someone over and she'd be here.

@@casadelmaghreb Whether or not she brought Ray over he was always going to torment and abuse her. He was abusing her LONG before there was any Ray in the picture. There was zero proof of her actually cheating on him otherwise he would have been sure to mention it, he however bragged about cheating on her. He was going to keep making her life hell one way or another. There was no peaceful exit from this situation, he would have stalked her no matter where she went even if there was a TRO in place. She was a POSSESSION to him that he refused to part with.

I doubt it she wasn’t anything to him, he didn’t care about that short fling what so ever only about Ana finding out.

I really feel that the defense attorney was so sick in how she questioned that girl. I know it's her job to defend her client, but she could at least have been courteous & a decent human to her.

​@@-.-hyuga-.-882why? She wasn't decent or courteous to herself

@@yeetnama9094 she had a lapse in judgement when she was 19 years old. Please tell me how that gives people the right to make her feel small & treat her so poorly.

He willing came as an adult be so fkn fr. You weird victim blaming folks are the real ones to watch out for🤔👀

@@tyola23 I’m not victim blaming I’m just stating this guy was already showing signs of being extremely unhinged.

@@tyola23 Nah you just don’t got the common sense

What are you saying then? That she knew or should have known that he would murder her and her friend? Simply become he owned a hand gun? As ex military.. You might want to look into the details of this case a little more

@@tyola23 First off Ray was NOT just a friend. He was a romantic interest and had been for awhile. Ali was sick enough to punch his wife repeatedly in the face, Anyone who is capable of that kind of abuse is surely capable of murder. He showed that gun off to everyone friends, fans, neighbors, as well as his own DAUGHTER. Maybe you need to research the case a bit more if you think he didn’t show signs prior.

😂😂😂

Can you give me a timestamp please

Gonna be more embarrassing that the last time he ever had a chance to have sex with a chick he fucked up and now he’s only gonna have dudes now

​@@Roadtolbsbenchpress1:28 onwards.....

​@@Roadtolbsbenchpress 👀 its wild. Defense talks about 'dlid0' and 'vibrat0r' masage 🤣

Where was this trial livestreamed?

No but they replayed at night like this probably Friday

The judge releases the testimonies. It’s not up to court tv.

No court today at all. It’s a holiday.

For 3-5 seconds lol

Agreed. He was so wound up he knew what he knew and that was the end of it. Id love to know if the words he heard them saying through the iPad was actually possible or if he was making it up in his head.
