Still Missing MA - Ana Walshe, 39, allegedly left home, may have been dismembered, Cohasset, Jan 2023 *husband indicted* #4

  • #1,521
From what I have seen (it's possible I have missed something), BW has NOT said he dismembered/destroyed her body in any way.

IIUC the content of his guilty plea was only about removing the dead body (as well as lying to LE), so that it's gone from where she died.

The distinction is important in relation to where the def eventually might try to head.

It's always possible he MIGHT eventually admit to doing things to the body. But so far, I haven't read of any such confession.

Do you recall what he pleaded guilty to?

In my head, I was thinking "abuse of a corpse" but I could be wrong about that. I'm aware too that the charge isn't necessarily as ghastly as it sounds. Can just mean moving a body iiuc.

So geez, how can he claim she died suddenly, he did nothing to try to save her, moved her to somewhere and that, what, she did disappeared from there? I don't see what he gained by making those pleas, unless the Defense thought they might gain a strategic advantage (or erase a disadvantage) from the judge, ruling to keep certain details from the jury.

Here's my bottom line: since he's NOT saying what happened to Ana or where she is now, I can't believe anything he says because he says he moved her.

Then tell us where you moved her to.

The End.

misleading a police investigation and improper conveyance of a body.

I want to scream: Ana was waiting to see what happened with his fraud charges!!!!

Makes perfect sense (to me).

If Brian goes to prison, she can file easily for divorce and move forward with her affair/relationship.

She was frustrated that there wasn't resolution (based on testimony from her paramour)...

She was likely doing everything she could NOT to raise suspicion with Brian... house in DC, housing searches in DC, helped deflect suspicion IMO...

There's a reason Brian was suspicious but not certain IMO. Ana was uncertain.

Had she not been murdered, she would have eventually divorced him once incarcerated.

If he was found not guilty, who knows what she would have decided or when...

A lot of couples are in that limbo stage. Either we stay together or we don't. Until one or the other decides out. Most spouses don't murder, they divorce.

That Brian wanted to live in DC with Ana, that he wanted to have dinner with her on NYD, that he wanted to get her a Porsche goes toward motive for me, and doesn't erase premeditation or negate murder, like the Defense wants it to. It might pinpoint the moment that Brian learned he was about to lose everything.

Yes, she was waiting it out in hopes he was found guilty, then safely enough for her, she could move forward with her children and a hopefully a sane life, her plan. IMO

Thank you.

This is going to blow up!!!

The Defense needs the jury to believe

The affair is irrelevant.

Ana died naturally.

Brian moved her body.

Nothing to see here.

The hacksaw is going to destroy that.

Brian to Ana: "I'm get you a plunger... and a Porsche."

What a romancer.

To show that Brian wasn't all murdery.

oh, so what guy who plans to murder his wife and dismember her dragging and dumping body parts all over the city is househunting on zillow?

His line of questioning is just not relevant. To me it’s a time waster. He may as well be reading the phone book. It’s hard to listen to the D lawyer. He sounds snarky about everything.
Not likeable.
Prob hired by Mom.

Exactly.

While simultaneously highlighting that Ana wasn't feeling well.

Inference: Brian wasn't premeditating murder. And Ana was gravely ill.

When, in reality, there's no evidence she had any underlying, fatal diseases, and Brian didn't need to be premeditating murder in the days leading up to NYE to change his mind and premeditate it on NYE.

Going back to yesterday. @Megnut queried why AW's face was blurred out on a photo displayed to the jury while they were discussing the necklace she was wearing. I still can't come up with a reason why her face would be blurred. But. I then question has the jury seen a clear picture of the victim AW? Isn't that something that is pretty common during a murder trial?

Also WTF is up with the hole in the ceiling.

I understand that defense attorneys have a job to do, but this guys demeanor rubs me the wrong way. Since his opening statement, I found him overly loud and a grand stander…I still feel the same as he has continued. jmo

Same. He uses a lot of distraction tactics, eg look over there

It takes a special kind of antagonist to suggest we can't say for sure who made the Google searches on Brian's phone and the searches show he was planning a future with Ana, as evidenced by his trivial Googke searches.

I wonder if the words coming out of each side of his mouth ever meet in the middle.
