Suspicious Character Letters From Ana Walshe's Mother Kept Brian Walshe Out Of Jail, Probate Court Docs Call Brian A Sociopath Who Tried Killing 5 Men In China - TB Daily News

Dr. Fred Pescatore stated in an affidavit that Tom wanted nothing to do with his son or grandkids, which is why he kept him out of the will. He said that Dr. Martin Samuels, a work friend of Tom Walshe, described Brian as an “evil person capable of just about anything.”

The affidavit from Pescatore, said that what Brian had done to his father by stealing around $1 million, was similar to what he did by conning people with fake Andy Warhol art. He said Brian was a sociopath who kept getting kicked out of schools as a kid, and participated in “alternative lifestyles.”

He also went on to say that on a trip to China he witnessed Brian try to smuggle antiquities out of the country, and then tried to murder four or five guards with a stanchion when they tried to question him. He described Brian as a “very angry and physically violent person.”

Ana and Brian Walshe "seemed like regular people," their landlord told Fox News Digital Tuesday, and said he didn't have any issues with the family since they moved into their Cohasset, Massachusetts home in March.

Peter Capozzoli, who owns the Walshes' home at 516 Chief Justice Cushing Highway and the business at the foot of the long, rocky driveway, said he doesn't know the Walshe family well, but has never had a problem with them.

Capozzoli said his business, Cohasset Imports, was closed, so no one was around on New Year's Day, when Ana seemingly vanished, and he doesn't have exterior cameras.

[…]

Capozzoli milled around inside his business Tuesday afternoon while police maintained a visible presence at the Walshes' home and nearly a dozen news trucks and photographers were parked across the street.

Police finished searching and processing the home late Tuesday afternoon, the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office said.

Capozzoli said he doesn't want to get involved in the case, and when asked if he's been inside the home since then, he said, "No, and I don't want to."

TRANSCRIPTION OF INTERVIEW WITH FAMILY FRIEND

10TH JANUARY.

Reporter - ...now this friend asked to remain anonymous.

Friend - I was probably as close to the inner dynamics of that family as anyone.

Reporter - This man says he first met Brian Walshe when he was 6 yrs. old. A close friend of his father's, Thomas Walshe, he describes Brian as well behaved and entitled.

Friend - Brian was not like other young people. He was always dressed in Armani and penny loafers, when he was like 13. I never saw him in dungarees. He just wanted the finest things in life.

Reporter - Brian is now behind bars accused of misleading the investigation into the disappearance of his wife Ana and his friend says, Brian's manipulate behavior started with a falling out with his father over money. He said the two did not speak for over a decade.

Friend - This is a kid who never gave his father an ounce of teenage angst. He didn't smoke, he didn't drink, he didn't do drugs. He was very close and he was very respectful to his father. He was charming and when he did this, it like stabbed his dad in the heart.

Reporter - Brian's father, the former Head of Neurology at Brigham Women's Hospital, died in 2018. According to court documents, Thomas Walshe cut his son out of the will. Then Brian is accused of destroying the will, appointing himself the personal representative of the estate and liquidating over $100,00 from bank accounts in the name of Thomas Walshe.

Friend - There was indeed a will and there were specified inheritors and Brian was not one of them.

Reporter - In 2021, Brian was convicted of fraud for stealing a friend's Andi Warhol paintings and selling them, as well as fake versions of them. Despite this history this man said he's still perplexed by Ana Walshe's disappearance

Friend - He was not trustworthy. He did things that were shameful and horrible to someone he really cared about, but I never saw him raise his voice.

Brian Walshe's house arrest bracelet not equipped with GPS tracking​

[...]

Court papers outlining the conditions of Walshe's release say, "you are restricted to residence at all times except for activities preapproved by the probation office."


Sources told WBZ-TV Walshe's bracelet did not use the GPS monitoring that some inmates have. Instead, his used radio frequency that can alert authorities when he left home, without specifying where he went.

"Let's say it's a release for an hour and a half. As long as he's back at the end of the hour and a half they generally let it slip by," said defense attorney J.W. Carney, who has had many clients under home confinement.

"Let's say for example a person passes a hardware store on the way back from dropping the kids off at school and he goes in and buys a couple of things. Generally, that won't be something that will get the probation officer's attention," Carney said.

A disputed will. A fraudulent art deal. Here's what we know about Brian Walshe's legal record.​

[...]

“Brian is not a trustworthy person and his affidavit is based on lies and misrepresentations,” a longterm friend of his father wrote in a 2019 sworn affidavit filed in Plymouth Probate and Family Court. “He completely crafted fabrications and misrepresented reality to suit his needs, which are consistent with his pattern of appropriating [his father’s] money, which he had skillfully done in the past.”

In the same affidavit, the friend, who knew Walshe since Walshe was 13 years old, wrote he was told by Walshe’s father that Walshe was professionally diagnosed as a sociopath.

When a different friend reached out to one of the father’s other acquaintances, he said simply, “Brian is an evil person and capable of just about anything,” according to another affidavit. “I want nothing to do with this.”

[...]

Brian Walshe was estranged from his father, Dr. Thomas Moorecroft Walshe III, with limited to no contact for at least 10 years before the latter’s death in September 2018, family and friends wrote in sworn affidavits filed in Plymouth Probate and Family Court.

The split, several wrote, was, in part, due to Brian Walshe allegedly stealing a significant amount of money from his father, who had made clear in conversations over the years that not only did he want no contact with his son, but also that Brian Walshe was to receive no inheritance upon his death.

[...]

The case is “telling of [Walshe’s] masterful ability to coerce people,” Rivlin told the news outlet.

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

He also said it’s “incredibly sad to learn that Ana is missing.”

“As a parent of young children, I’m having a hard time processing this and hope that she is found and reunited with her family,” Rivlin said. “In the immediate aftermath of the transaction, she seemed shocked and pressured Brian to call me. They were newlyweds at the time, and I got a sense from speaking with her that she wasn’t in on the crime.”

Husband of missing woman had business, personal ties to North Shore​

Investigators searching for a missing Cohasset woman have spent several days searching and attempting to re-trace the movements of her husband, Brian R. Walshe, after he allegedly told them he’d traveled to Swampscott last week to visit his mother and run some errands for her.

Walshe, who is currently being held on charges that he lied to police during an interview, has had not only personal ties to the North Shore — where his mother, Diana Walshe, lives in a luxury apartment complex in Vinnin Square in Swampscott — but where Walshe also lived and, at least on paper, set up several businesses, in Marblehead and Lynn, court records show.

Officials won’t confirm so far what they recovered from two trash dumpsters that were towed away from the Swampscott apartment complex and searched at a Peabody waste management company — Republic Services on Forest Street late Monday — saying in a statement that “a number of items” were collected and will be examined for potential evidentiary value.

Brian Walshe: Court docs reveal struggles with mental health, relationship between Ana & his mother

Brian Walshe was born into a Massachusetts family with “economic means” but his childhood was hardly considered “privileged,” according to more than a dozen character letters sent to a federal judge in September 2021.

Brian Walshe was born into a Massachusetts family with “economic means” but his childhood was hardly considered “privileged,” according to more than a dozen character letters sent to a federal judge in September 2021.

[...]

Walshe, 46, grew up an only child with his mother, who is described to live a “reclusive lifestyle” and his father who was a renowned neurosurgeon in Boston and spent much of his time “partying with mere acquaintances.”

According to Walshe’s treating psychiatrist, Dr. Tittmann, “Brian felt neglected, unloved, and emotionally damaged from being used as a pawn by his parents in their acrimonious marital relationship.”

Walshe was sent to boarding school in Rhode Island and then enrolled at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburg, PA. However, in sophomore year Brian’s mental health continued to deteriorate so he dropped out of school and checked himself into the Austin Riggs Center, a psychiatric in-patient treatment facility that specializes in psychiatric patients who have failed at least one prior treatment.

“His depression, anxiety, and anger left him unable to function, according to Dr. Tittmann. “There he started his long battle to overcome his mental illness.”
