Brian Walshe's lawyers try to suppress explosive Google search evidence

Brian Walshe was in court this week for back-to-back hearings, where, for the first time, investigators spoke about their probe into the disappearance of his wife Ana back in early 2023.

The hearings on Monday and Tuesday — which featured testimony from several investigators who also appeared in the Karen Read case — could have major implications for the case, NBC10 Boston chief legal analyst Michael Coyne said. The defense is trying to exclude graphic Google searches centered around the disposal of a dead body that Walshe allegedly made on his child's iPad the morning of Ana's disappearance.

Ugh. BW was tired when LE was questioning him.

Yeah? I'll bet he was. And not from grief. Not from worry.

More like from power tools.

Hard to have any sympathy for this man.

Murder suspect Brian Walshe wants Google searches on body disposal barred as trial evidence

Lawyers for Brian Walshe, who is accused of killing his wife Ana on New Year's Day 2023, say that detectives gained access to Google searches about body dismemberment on his son's iPad illegally.

www.masslive.com

Brian Walshe, a man charged with killing and dismembering his wife in Cohasset, wants to bar evidence of Google searches about the “best ways to dispose of a body” at his trial on the basis that investigators did not use a search warrant to obtain it, according to court filings.

In the initial days of the police investigation, when Brian Walshe’s wife — 39-year-old Ana Walshe — was merely a missing person, he agreed to let law enforcement review his family’s electronic devices for messages, according to court filings. He did not consent to allowing police access to internet search histories on the devices, his lawyers argue.

This will be an interesting ruling. There has to be some legal precedent?
I am assuming it's just his word that he specifically said you can search only messages - which is not believable to me.
I think he probably follishly let LE seach his devices to appear innocent and really did not understand that they could access his searches etc -
Sloppy LE of course should have seized them and gotten a search warrant.
I have not really focused on this case in a while - I have been waiting for the trial.
Many of these LE guys are of course the same gang from the Karen Read case. Hopefully their procedures were a little more by the book in this case and the taint does not carry over. Iirc they have a lot of evidence of him killing her including her blood on the basement floor - things with her blood he threw away in dumpsters etc. /HDepot receipts and him on film buying clean up supplies etc
When you add in all that stuff with his Dad and the artwork etc this is one dangerous creepy psycho dude.

Brian Walshe returns to court for hearing about evidence

Brian Walshe is accused of killing and dismembering his wife in 2023.

www.wcvb.com

Court records show that the defense and prosecution continue to debate related issues, including exhaustive DNA testing and records the defense is seeking from Massachusetts State Police about investigators who worked the case, including Trooper Michael Proctor.

Proctor, who was also on the Karen Read case, could face "permanent discipline" at a hearing next week after his courtroom testimony revealed "unprofessional" messages he wrote about Read.

Walshe's trial is scheduled to begin Oct. 20.

What is permanent discipline?

What is permanent discipline?

I assume that his termination was permanent discipline. Looks to me like the article was updated but they neglected to update that statement. MOO

Also just a reminder for us all - Proctor is currently appealing his termination.
