MA MA - Ana Walshe - Supposedly Left Home in Rideshare to Airport - Cohasset #2

[Choochoobella]

This is the first reporting I've seen of what was found at the Peabody trash facility.

Sources: Investigators find hacksaw, parts of rug, & trash bags with blood on cloth amid search for Cohasset woman - Boston News, Weather, Sports | WHDH 7News

COHASSET, MASS. (WHDH) - Investigators have found possible evidence tied to the disappearance of a Cohasset mother of three, according to the Norfolk District Attorney’s<a class="excerpt-read-more"...

Officials said a search conducted north of Boston on Monday resulted in a number of items being collected, which will now be tested to see if they are connected to the case.

7NEWS sources confirmed that some of the evidence found includes a hacksaw, parts of a rug, trash bags with blood on cloth, and evidence connected to cleaning supplies.

I first read it in the New York Post and gave it little credence, but the NYP cited the information as coming from 7News Boston.

IMO, he certainly doesn't have charm of charisma by looking at him. He's not good looking at all LOL

IMO/IME looks have absolutely nothing to do with charm and charisma. If you are local you will know of Buddy Cianci from RI. Former mayor of Providence RI etc and utterly physically unattractive imo. He went to jail for a while and many other unsavory things iirc.
At two business functions I was seated next to him at lunch. That man was funny smart charming - you name it - even with his toupe falling off - tough to judge a book by its cover and lets not forget ...beauty is in the eye of the beholder ! Just IMO

There is no way she could take the boys out of state with her if she decided to leave him. Maybe when/if he went to prison but MA is a state that very strongly supports 50/50 custody and even with federal charges pending he would have been given visitation or parenting time.

Regardless of the law He was on house arrest. She is the children's custodial parent just as much as he is, couldn't she have just said hey I'm taking the boys to Target and then gotten on a plane and gone to DC? He would have had to go to court to force her to come back.

Context is everything.

One problem area LE face in looking for what we assume is AW's body is the preponderance of water in this area. The ocean, yes, it's out there, but, as well, almost every named town has, within its limits, a large pond or two.

If the items LE found are what they think they are, and have her DNA on them, LE may already have what it takes for a no-body murder arrest.

MOO

My earlier post about the Warhol fraud was deleted because I didn't have a link.

Still don't have the original link I mentioned but a quick search shows that the NY Post has a sentence or two similar to what I posted (bbm):

The images of the Warhol canvases that appeared on Ana’s eBay seller’s account were of the original pieces, which had been authenticated, but the paintings Rivlin acquired were phony, according to the news outlet.

Brian pleaded guilty to the ruse last year.

[snip]

Rivlin claims to know where the real paintings ended up abroad after Brian sold them without telling a friend who actually owned them, the Daily Beast said.

“The irony in all this is that there was a window of time when he could’ve just returned my money and he didn’t,” he told the outlet.

“He started returning my money, and I told him that if he returned it all, I wouldn’t pursue it any further. He took a chance, and I followed through on my promise. And I did my own investigating, so I helped the FBI with everything to make it more chargeable,” Rivlin said.

“I couldn’t break him down,” he added. “Lawyers, courts, all that, and he still didn’t voluntarily settle. He never apologized.”

Of course. But if he filed an emergency hearing, the boys would need to come back. I think she thought her husband was an idiot and awful human - I don’t think she thought he would kill her.

Court documents show he failed to inform probation about two IRA's at Fidelity – one of which he contributed $91,000 – and left off a 2014 Fiat and 2015 Maserati, which his wife Ana drove.

She posted that the car, worth $120,000, was the 'best Valentine's present of her life' in a post online, adding 'kiss to my husband who makes all of my childhood dreams come true'.

Husband of missing mom broke into his father's' house to DESTROY will

DailyMail.com can reveal that he was accused by his family of stealing nearly a million dollars from his father Dr Thomas Walshe before the pair became estranged in 2009.

I feel like if my husband's very rich father died and then he bought me an expensive car, I wouldn't think it was fraud. Even if I was aware of the strained/non-relationship. IMO

I think in light of the fact 1) that he was likely going to jail/ 2)the abuse I suspect that was happening in that household/ 3)the results of a pysch report we have all seen up thread - she could probably have gotten a court to give her sole custody with a stipulation of some type of supervised visitation for the kids with the father.
In other words I can see her moving to DC with kids.
I think that is why she reached out to her mother also - she need support desperately and help.
The only wrinkle I see with the above is the MIL who appears to have financial resources and no love for Ana - who may have sued for custody for any or no reason -
Truly a total nightmare Ana was living IMO

thanks so much, Gardenista...

It's as if you have opened the cover to a very dark disturbing novel.

In retrospect the letter AW wrote for the court seems like a massive placation - she knew he would have seen it and been satisfied that she didn't say anything she shouldn't have about him. In contrast the other letters from non-familial individuals that call him out on his behaviors - would she have seen them? I should have checked the dates to see if she saw those first and then panicked that BW would erupt and wrote her 'loving' review. But why not let her 'sociopath' husband go to prison? She and her kids would be safer. m00

And, from the final paragraph of FP's statement, mentioning aggression and violent tendencies:

I apologize if this has been answered already but what was the dads "alternative lifestyle" ?

 

[Snoop Sister]

I was wondering this too. Their prospects might be best in Serbia. MOO.

The children have an aunt in Toronto Canada…Ana’s sister.

 

[waldojabba]

I'm missing something. In the original press conference it was said that someone NOT her husband saw her leaving. We never learned who that person was, AFAIK. If they are going to arrest him for misleading, shouldn't this person who must have lied also be arrested? Thoughts?

in hindsight -I suspect it may have been the husband who reported to LE that someone ( iirc the chief said a female relative) in the house saw her leave bc he was asleep. Perhaps that female family member backed him up to LE or maybe LE had not yet checked with that female relative IMO

Ana might have been fearful of forcing BW's hand that way. I bet she was well aware of how far he could be pushed before he would explode due to his past behavior. She may have been putting up a good front for years which many women (and men) will do when they live in an abusive relationship or marriage. Just taking off with they boys, good idea or not and fair or not could have resulted in the murder taking place in WA DC instead of in MA and maybe a lot sooner. He's a sociopath... there's a relationship history there that we know nothing about but where Ana must have learned many things about him over the years. ...And "what's legally right and fair or legally wrong and unfair" may have no meaning when placed up beside the reality of some peoples' behavior.


Many people are murdered by their partner even though they have restraining orders against their partner, for example. Legal orders or "restraints" can also make some people very, very angry.
But, what we're both ignoring is... the possibility that Ana didn't want to leave him and take the boys to WA DC. I can sit back with no personal emotional involvement and history and say,
"That's what I would have done."
But would I have? I can't possibly know the answer to that.

I apologize if this has been answered already but what was the dads "alternative lifestyle" ?

His partner was a male, a very accomplished and reputable architect.
It was him who took the photos of the original will before Brian destroyed it.

This was outlined in the documents in the first thread.

Not sure how those letters are written. In light of this new info part of me suspects he wrote them and had them sign them or even forged their signatures.
IMOO
