[...]Citing financial strain, Brian Walshe appointed public defender in Cohasset murder case.
Brian Walshe, the Cohasset man accused of killing and dismembering his wife last year, said he can longer afford a private lawyer.www.patriotledger.com
It's unclear why his lawyer, Tracy Miner, wants to withdraw from the case. A message left with her office Wednesday morning was not immediately returned.
According to the DA's office, once the motion to withdraw is filed, it will be up to the court to decide whether to accept it, and, if so, to then appoint a new public defender.
WCVB reports that Walshe will now be represented by Larry Tipton, but the DA's office said it has not been notified of that yet.

[...]Accused Cohasset murderer Brian Walshe found indigent, gets court-appointed attorney
Brian Walshe, the Cohasset man accused of murdering his wife Ana Walshe on the first day of this year, has lost his private attorney and has been assigned a court-appointed one.www.bostonherald.com
Walshe was the subject of a brief hearing conducted by Norfolk Superior Court Judge Beverly J. Cannone over Zoom Thursday afternoon. It was the first hearing in the once very active case held in several months.
In the hearing, Cannone found Walshe indigent and approved his attorney Tracy Miner’s motion to withdraw. Attorney Larry Tipton will now take on the role on the taxpayer dime.

The court set the next hearing date for March 4 at 2 p.m.
I believe the Jan 2024 hearing was scheduled with his prior attorney TM, and his new public defender may not be up to speed enough to meet as early as January and needs the later hearing date.But according to my notes - I have a hearing on 1/23/24 for that DNA stuff.

Also, if I recall correctly, the latest DNA evidence was something being tested by the defense expert.
