Lisa Saenz was shot to death in Dallas,

Texas three years ago and her crime was allegedly ordered by a Dallas police officer, authorities announced Thursday.

Officer Bryan Riser of the Dallas Police Department (DPD, for its acronym in English), was arrested on the morning of this Thursday, February 4, 2021, accused of having ordered the murder of Lisa Sáenz with bullets.

Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) arrested Riser, charged with the felony charge of capital murder against Lisa Sáenz, in a crime that occurred in 2017 in Dallas.

Bryan Riser also faces another capital murder charge

for allegedly ordering the murder of Albert Douglas, 61, also in Dallas.

According to Texas State Penal Code, the crime of capital murder is the only crime punishable by the death penalty for anyone found guilty of that accusation after facing trial.

Eddie García, head of the DPD and with less than a month in office, was the one who announced in a press conference the arrest of his officer Bryan Riser, after he was captured by FBI agents in Dallas without incident.

The DPD’s Internal Affairs Division, according to Chief Garcia, also participated in the investigations against Agent Bryan Riser.

According to a witness who spoke to authorities and who is in custody, Riser ordered him and two other men to kidnap, kill and dispose of the bodies of Lisa Sáenz and Albert Douglas.

Except for the alleged intellectual authorship in the death of Lisa Sáenz and Albert Douglas, the two crimes are not related to each other, according to Chief García.

The documents of the case in the death of Lisa Sáenz reveal that on Friday, March 10, 2017, four Dallas campers, who were pretending to spend the night in a field next to the Trinity River, heard noises of gunshots in the middle of the night.

Alerted by the noise of the gunshots, the four campers decided to launch their kayaks into the waters of the Trinity River and paddle a bit towards the area where they had heard the shots.

As the three campers paddled down the Trinity River, thanks to their flashlights on the kayaks, they discovered the body of a woman floating in the water and apparently suffering from gunshot wounds.

Two campers returned to the place where they had made a base along the river on the Santa Fe Trail, to call the police and two others stayed next to the body, waiting for the arrival of the authorities so that the current would not carry it away.

Thanks to the decision of the four campers, the agents of the DPD Homicide Division were able to determine the exact area from where they had thrown the woman’s body after killing her.

After DPD agents removed the body, they were able to identify her as Lisa Sáenz, a native of Port Aransas, in southeastern Texas in the Corpus Christi metropolitan area.

According to the original investigation of the case, DPD agents discovered that on the day of her death Saenz had been abducted at gunpoint by three armed men on North Lancaster Avenue in Dallas.

A fact that perhaps was overlooked by the DPD agents, and that is consigned in the case documents consulted by MundoHispánico in Texas, is that when Sáenz disappeared the woman lived with officer Bryan Riser.

The documents do not reveal why no agent of the DPD Homicide Division followed a line of investigation into his partner Bryan Riser and the relationship he had with Lisa Sáenz, only that they lived together.

In the autopsy of Lisa Marie Sáenz, her full name, it was determined that before she died, someone had fractured her arm, had bruises on her lips and shoulders. Then they had shot him.

Six months after Saenz’s body was found, the Homicide Division arrested African Americans Kevin Wayne Kidd, Emmanuel Lewis Kilpatrick, and Jermon Simmons as alleged perpetrators of his murder.

The arrest warrants against the three men detail that evidence on their cell phones and security camera videos linked them to the kidnapping and murder of Lisa Sáenz.

However, the story took a turn in August 2019 when one of those three men, it is not known which, spoke with the FBI to tell the truth in the crime against Lisa Sáenz.

According to that man’s testimony, DPD officer Bryan Riser paid him $ 10,000 to take charge of kidnapping and killing Lisa Sáenz and Douglas. The man offered details that allowed the FBI to investigate the police.

Based on the testimony of the witness who decided to speak and the evidence gathered by federal agents, an arrest warrant was issued against the police officer charged with the deaths of Sáenz and Douglas. The motive for the two crimes is unknown until now.

Police officer Bryan Riser, 36, is already being held in the jail of the Dallas county waiting to face his first hearing. Albert Douglas’s body has not been found since he disappeared in February 2017.
