A 50-year-old woman was behind bars Tuesday on suspicion of killing her husband in an Anaheim motel room.
Andrea Sue Luzanilla was accused of killing 38-year-old Jaime Javier Luzanilla on Sunday, according to Sgt. Matt Sutter of the Anaheim Police Department.
Police received a call just before 11 p.m. Sunday from Andrea Luzanilla saying her husband attacked her and he was dead, Sutter said. When police arrived at the Shadow Park Inn and Suites at 916 S. Beach Blvd., they found the victim had sustained traumatic injuries.
He was rushed to an area hospital where he was later pronounced dead, Sutter said.
The two were transient and living out of the motel at the time, Sutter said.

Anytime a Man Hits a Women it’s Not call for Men should hold there temper and never hit a women. This man is dead because he always obviously didn’t did something he shouldn’t have.
I can’t understanding half of what you wrote !!! But here’s my 2 cents ! It says “ the victim sustained traumatic injuries ! ! “ That sounds like she kept attacking him after there was no longer a threat present, Just because she’s a female doesn’t mean the sycho isn’t capable of murder !
Sounds like, key word. You don’t know the actual story, nobody does. I know James just as well as anybody and none of his family was involved in his life, that says something. Nobody cared about him from his own side, nobody offered him help. She’s not psycho he was definitely not in his right state of mind during this and that’s a fact that I know.
Andrea is a MURDERER!!
Jaime is my cousin. She’s been threatening to kill him for the longest time. She’s a master manipulator and he’s always held this bitch on a peddlestool!
This was premeditated murder! She called my mom to let her know that she was going to kill my cousin. My mom told her not to do that, Andrea hung up on my mom, killed my cousin and said “yea, call the police, i killed him”
Wtf!!?? And today March 18th, i find ou5 that this MURDERER crack whore was released as a claim of self defense?! What the fuck!?
This is bullshit! She should get the death penalty!
Premeditated murder! 1st degree murder!
Justice for Jaime!!
If she called your mom why didn’t the police contact your mom they would have called all the numbers she called and asked what was said?????
The police indeed did talk with my mom. She gave the full details and the police infact determined that this is an PC 187(a), so… yea… she is a MURDERER! + OverKill! I don’t know who these “Anonymous” “Anon” cunts are but they are speaking out of their asses and making justification of this MURDER! Making her innocent in shit!
I have images proof myself that this was premeditated murder. Images of Jaime abused, injured, in hospital, eyes almost out of his socket by the hands of his wife, months prior to this incident. Premeditated!
This BITCH! is not innocent! She planned it. My cousin was her fucken slave!! Message me if u want image proof on this, she is the 2026 Jodie Arias!!
She is NOT innocent!
PsychoKiller!!!
She Is THAT PERSON!
Disregard for human life!
1st degree!
Her family is obviously commenting here and speaking out of their ass talking shit about someone who cannot defend themselves. And commenting as “anonymous” or “Anon”.
They can fuck all the way off because they don’t know jack shit!
They only know what Andrea, 50yr old MURDERER is / was telling them.
Her own children were taken away! Look it up! She’s unfit to be a mother, and now wife! She’s a murderer!
Plain and simple! She should stay behind bars and never get out!
No one wins @ the end of the day!
Kids weren’t ever taken either. Clearly nobody from James side knows any facts. They have false stories and accusations. The whole eye socket thing Andrea wasn’t even there with him when that unfolded. So get the facts straight.
Andrea is a MURDERER!!
Jaime was my cousin.
Andrea’s been threatening to kill him for the longest time. She’s a master manipulator and he’s always held this bitch on a peddlestool! This was premeditated murder! She called my mom to let her know that she was going to kill my cousin. My mom told her not to do that, Andrea hung up on my mom, killed my cousin, called my mom back and said “yea, call the police, i killed him” Wtf!!?? And today March 18th, I found out that this MURDERER crack whore was released as a claim of self defense?! Yet, he had all injuries that lead to his death, she had none! What the fuck!? This is bullshit! She should get the death penalty! This is Premeditated murder! 1st degree murder!
#Justice for Jaime!!
James was a good man until the alcohol problems began he wasn’t himself. He was abusing his wife for years emotionally and physically, in front of his family. There’s no excuse for a man to put his hands on a woman ever!!!
Unfortunately Andrea was abused for years once James addiction took a hold of him he would black out and beat her.
There’s tons of evidence and proof of this being done to this woman. No man should EVER put their hands on a woman. It was a self defense.
James own family wasn’t in contact with him because of how he was unfortunately. That alone speaks volumes.
You arrogant and ignorant people make me sick. Firstly this occurred in a motel room that HIS family paid for because they cared for, and supported him the best they could. Secondly it literally stated that the victim had traumatic injuries, and she had none. What does that tell you? Thirdly, SHE called HIS family both before and after the attack. The definition of premeditated. Fourthly, we have come too far to ignore the fact that men can be abused too. Especially by a conniving, grooming, and abusive sociopath more than 10 years his senior. Fifthly, her children were in fact taken from her because she was deemed an unfit parent. I don’t care what this does to her family as she took a member from mine. I pray she never has a moments peace again. For those claiming his family had nothing to do with him, you’re so uninformed that you keep calling him James or Jaime. To his family, he was “Jay”. It shows how much you don’t know and the lengths you take to display how ignorant you actually are. He deserved better. He now deserves justice. May she rot!
First of all “Phe “Phe” you have no clue what you are talking about! His family did not pay nothing to help him other than one person helping to pay for his alcohol. His family did not help support him on the streets her family provided everything for them. Her kids were never taking away either. You know nothing about their lives OBVIOUSLY nor does his family. He indeed did not want anything to do with his family either he made that very clear multiple times.. He needed help! So get your facts straight before making accusations!
Domestic violence against a Woman is unacceptable! There are many photos of injuries from his abuse!
The really sad part of this is people commenting about something they know nothing about!
James was not the same person he was when he was sober. He would get black out aggressive drunk and beat Andrea. There’s PLENTY of evidence of it as well. It was clearly self defense. Andrea is NOT that person. She’s a woman who simply defended herself because she HAD to unfortunately. James own family wasn’t in contact with him for awhile, that says enough itself.
Sad

187!!
Ya know what?? I have no idea who these “Anonymous” or “Anon” pussies are but STFU! “JAMES” Jaime was my cousin. He was / is LOVED! FUCK U! U have no idea what u are talking about unless you know this murderer and she lied to you!
Taking a life is NOT OKAY! PERIODT!
It’s not okay to hit a woman or a man.
Keep ya hands 2 yourselves! 💯
Long story short. Someone’s life was taken…
I have pictures of the abuse Andrea inflicted on Jaime, months prior to her murdering him… very graphic! … message me.. I’ll send them to u!
Clearly nobody on that side has seen the images of Andrea over the years. Not here to share with anyone, just here to make facts known. Nobody from his side cares and they shouldn’t act now.
James injuries were caused from his smart ass mouth, every time he was out by himself he was getting his ass beat.
This is fact!
And yes, his family wanted nothing to do with him, FACT!
50yr old with a 38yr old?
That information alone is disturbing and disgusting! Sounds like incest. Bet these two are/were some hillbillies or wetbacks that no one will miss. FACTS! She can rot for all we care. Another piece of trash off the streets. Another useless waste our tax money. They both were wasting tax payers resources. Seems like both families’ sides didn’t give a ratsass about them or else they wouldn’t be homeless in the first place.
He was probably her son and he told her that he found a girlfriend and was trying to dump her(his mom). She got mad and killed him.
She should be charged with separate charges on that alone! That speaks volumes. This is gross! FACTS!
How did I get here?
Cause you’re a dumbass that’s how.
First of all you don’t know jack shit about anything!
The age difference wouldn’t be a problem if it was the man older right?
Second of all keep your nasty comments about hillbillies and wetbacks to your self, because you are being racist!
Her family did support them with food and other things they needed and not that it is any of your business but she chose to be homeless for him because her family would step up for her but not him for a place to live.
At least they aren’t homeless anymore 🤣.
God is good!
🙌🏻MAGA!
Jojo stop talking shit about Jodi you don’t know her you don’t know her family and putting her name out there is hurting her family. As you think you are to James her family is good people so shut up. Don’t hurt people that don’t need it. Please
K! Ain’t nobody care about you or this “Jojo and Jodi” you mentioned 🤣 Please?
Maybe more “transients” a.k.a. homeless trash should just kill each other.
There’d be less homeless psychos in the streets! 🤣 Problem solved! You’re welcome!
This is just sad. A life was taken.
Actually 2 lives are now taken.
She should have just left him alone to cool off. Like, she could have took off, run away! Restraining order or something.
Especially if he was the one that attacked her. And she decided to strike back? Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Provoked on both sides?
Her family should have picked her up to get away from him ages ago if this is or was not their first altercation.
Maybe he was called “Jay” by you guys or Jaime. He was James to us and he that’s what he wanted us to call him. There’s been a handful of times JAMES has said he has nobody from his family there for him. Why do you think he RARELY talked to that side? Cause they definitely DID NOT care while he was still breathing. Maybe “Jays” family possibly helped pay for some of the room, which I doubt, but I know they payed for that room themselves mainly. 100% not premeditated murder. Yall dont know facts cause you didn’t care about him til now. Just stop. I know him better than ANY one of you on his side do.
Kids weren’t taken. More false stories. NEVER was deemed unfit. THEY did what was right for their daughters in that time. Y’all really don’t know shit and it shows. That’s what happens when you ain’t close with family. You just really DONT know.
Also she did have many injuries from that night. This is a story that is all ALLEGEDLY. He had ONE unfortunate traumatic injury (not multiple like the story leads you to believe) from her defending herself.
This shit is wild. His family screaming he was abused and groomed. He was an adult when they met. Not to mention claiming he was abused and you have pictures. You’re not the only people with photographic evidence. He was abusive to her. I’ve spoke with her on numerous occasions and got pictures of her beat up by him. No one has any clue what happened that night but them. He ain’t talking and she shouldn’t be either. Let the cards fall where they may. There will be plenty of evidence of the abuse she suffered at his hands if they go to trial. Who knows if that is even going to happen honestly. The way the system works, she will have to be indicted on the charges which means the state of California will have to find enough evidence against her to bring in front of the grand jury. What evidence is there? A phone call from her to the police stating she was attacked and defended herself. That’s it. If you people cared so much about James why was he living in a fucking van? Quit acting like you gave a fuck because it seems to me her side of the family cared a lot more about him then any of you did. This isn’t me taking sides. This is stating facts.
