After hearing that “his wife was with another man,” the tiktoker allegedly showed up at the apartment armed, and there he found Ana with his friend Rayburn. He allegedly shot her three times in the head and neck, and then in his wife’s forehead.
According to police reports, surveillance cameras showed JinnKid leaving the building after the time it all happened, and heading to school to pick up his five-year-old daughter. Police arrested him while he was in the car with the little girl, and it is believed that it was he himself who alerted the authorities, although he pleaded not guilty last Monday.
The tiktoker is now being held without bail pending a preliminary hearing on January 5.
