On the morning of February 5, 2015, Lisa A. Berlanga Trubnikova, a 31-year-old Petty Officer in the U.S. Coast Guard, was shot and killed during a violent home invasion at her condominium in Bourne, Massachusetts. The assailant, a fellow Coast Guard member, drove from Virginia to confront her and entered the home armed with multiple firearms. Lisa’s wife, Anna Trubnikova, was seriously wounded in the attack; a responding Bourne police officer, Jared MacDonald, was also shot in the back.

Investigators say the attacker had a long-held grudge tied to a past allegation he made against Lisa while they were stationed together in Alaska. After shooting Lisa and wounding others, he engaged in a standoff with police and was taken into custody. He was charged with murder, attempted murder, and assault and battery on a police officer. A surviving spouse testified at trial, and in September 2017 a jury found the defendant guilty of first-degree murder and he was sentenced to life without parole.
