In this episode of Crime Watch Daily Updates: Adrian Loya served with Lisa Berlanga in the United States Coast Guard while stationed in Kodiak, Alaska, and the two became fast friends even though he was her superior. Also in the Coast Guard was the love of Lisa’s life, Anna Trubnikova.
Anna and Lisa got married, but Anna wasn’t fond of Lisa and Adrian’s relationship. Then, one night while Anna was out of town, Lisa and Adrian hung out at her house. Lisa had supposedly been drinking before Adrian arrived, and after watching some TV, she tried to kiss him.
As the night went on, she tried again, even putting her hand on his arm. Little did she know how big of an impact that little gesture would have. Adrian believed he had been sexually assaulted.
Adrian later wrote Lisa a lengthy letter about what she allegedly did to him, and he reported her to Coast Guard investigators. Coast Guard officials moved Adrian to Virginia as a disciplinary action, and Anna and Lisa ended up in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Adrian got passed over for a promotion, and he pointed the finger at Lisa, believing his lack of career advancement was her fault.
He went so far as to write a detailed 250-page plan and description as to why he hated Lisa and how he planned to kill her, which he titled “Loya Wars.”
In the early hours of February 5, 2015, Adrian drove to Anna and Lisa’s condo, and began his reign of terror. He arrived wearing tactical gear and set his car on fire. He even placed what appeared to be an explosive device next to the vehicle.
Adrian broke his way into Lisa and Anna’s house and barged into their room. Anna and Lisa managed to shield themselves with their mattress, but it wasn’t enough. Adrian fired several rounds into the mattress, hitting Lisa 11 times and Anna four. Lisa died from her wounds, and Anna was seriously injured.
One officer went towards the condo and was shot in the back by Adrian. He eventually surrendered and was taken into custody. Adrian told the police everything and spoke about it as if he had completed a homework assignment.
Adrian went to trial in 2017 and his attorneys argued he was not guilty by reason of mental defect. He was convicted in September 2017 of murder and several other charges. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole. In 2020, Adrian appealed his conviction, but the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the lower court’s ruling.
Let’s take a look back at the case of a married couple’s life that was shattered by a desire for revenge.

How come army didn't due sny test on this sicko aren't they screen once a year because shitg like this i mean this guy is nuts its obvious he is for years he was ticking bomb
The car fire was not a diversion he knew it would prevent medical personnel from getting in there. The sexual assault idea is totally bogus – he was infatuated with her and if he couldn't have her no one could.
They should've given him a death penalty. RIP Lisa😞
Looking at it, I think Loyalty wearing the body cam..the manifesto, and recording the girls at their house and himself as well… I think he just wanted the thrill of carrying out a "mission".. an ill intended mission 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
I wonder if they do psych exams or tests for the military.. or was this the coast guard?
This man wrote a email 26 pages long when printed…and a 250 PAGE manifesto..meanwhile most of us struggle to write thesis statements and research papers for school 😩😮💨
So, he feels he didn't get the promotion bc of her… but then he decides to k*ll her… you DEFINITELY won't get a promotion now
1h for ambulance??? Wow
Wow. If I had “taken out” every person who made a clumsy pass at me in my younger years there would have been corpses strewn everywhere- and I know a lot of other women would say the same. What a lunatic.
We could all be so lucky to be sexually harassed lmao guys gotta be gay
If women reacted by killing every man who made an unwanted advance on them, there would be hardly any men left.
Not even the death penalty; just life in timeout. Good job justice system
Wow, 36 minutes laying there. Screw those cops man
That 911 call saved her life made me cry so hard she died saving her wife love of her life my last act would be to aave my husband
He did all of this because she touched his arm & tried to kiss him??!!
“The evil that was brought upon him”
SHE TRIED TO KISS HIM! That’s not a reasonable reaction to plot to kill someone.
Lisa's fault.
That cowardly piece of garbage used the facade of a victim of sexual assault as a revenge tactic against Lisa for rejecting him. I don’t believe his story at all. She was drunk and lonely. He’s disgusting.
The lady in the beginning usually spoils the video I fast forward the beginning
This dude is a psychopath.
FFS
I would of sued the Police Department especially the 1 who was on the phone with the victim, Asking all those questions instead of sending more officers to help the lady, I’m sure if it was his family he would of sent the whole force. Hope he got fired after they reviewed the call
Guarantee they fkn helped that damn cop before helping those bullet riddled soldiers.
Could you imagine if someone had noticed the fire and reported it when it happen, they could have been there already. Rest in peace Lisa. If a woman killed a man every time one of them made an inappropriate gesture towards her I think half the men on earth wouldn't be. This was beyond overkill. He really is crazy but all the more reason he should never be allowed near the public again.
The police failed this woman. Wtf took them SO LONGGGGGGG
This guy is a serious freak.
So he shot several rounds into the mattress & hit lisa 11x and anna 4? That dosnt make sense lol
She grew up in the religious family then turned to be sleeping with females hummmm Very religious oh my
I never heard in my 4 0years of life That a man will call the police to Earth a sexual assault by a female, 99.999 of guys will go ahead and f*** the s*** out of that w**
If it was a man making these advancements, he would no longer have a career. Double standards, galore.
Wowwwwww. Weird. Just straight up weird. Damn. What a shame.
What a piece of garbage psychopath. I'm 99.9% sure his issues started in his childhood, mostly likely a dysfunctional family. He should have been identified in his early years (school screening) and taken out of society for ever. I wouldn't waste a bulletin on him. Let him dig his own grave. I'd be happy to fill it in as a community service. Just sad we have this psychopaths running around in society and we don't seem to be doing anything proactive to identify them and remove them for the greater good. Just madness. Is it not the primary goal of a government to protect society? WTF. Legal system is pro is too soft and believes in 2nd chances when there should never be one.
You cover these so well. Thank you.
My degrees were in criminology, emphasized on cults and serial killers.
I truly enjoy your coverage.
Awful awful job on 911!!! Hour and more before police arrive, they send after 30 min ONE policeman alone????? Crazy. No ambulances, no patrols with lots of men with a crazy monster armed to his teeth.
How people cant see that he was probably in love with her. She never give back his attention. Who know if she even try to kiss him like he said. For me it's simple : He was jealous, she love a women, he cant take it and invented this hole thinks only to have some kind of possible motive for a lesser sentence. Lisa was in danger the moment she saw him as a friend and he saw her as something more.
P.S. I know women can also be abuser, I just don't feel that this is the case. The filming and all feel like a big Act.
A very sick man that should not be outside prison walls.
freaks.
So a girl tries to kiss him and that traumatizes this weak cowardly pussy so much that he does all that? I’m afraid this country is running low on real men
He's such a wierdo
Health and Safety Is Killing People. The Days of Cops being Hero's are over.
what a creeeeeeep! I don't believe Lisa tried anything with him. I think this balls-less wonder tried to have sex with her but she wasn't into the pos!
I sure am glad that I don't have to hope that law enforcement in Bourne, MA will help protect me and keep me safe. There are several officers on the scene with one confirmed assailant and it took them an hour to get to a dying victim, while still on the 9-1-1 call. Completely unacceptable.
This guy is one f*cked up individual on so many levels.
