Missing Massachusetts mother Ana Walshe’s husband charged with murder

The husband of the missing Massachusetts mother, Ana Walshe, has been charged with her murder, three weeks after she went missing on New Year’s Day.

Brian Walshe is already in custody on charges of misleading the police.

For weeks, police have been building a case against him that is believed to include evidence such as blood found in the couple’s basement and a bloody axe.

Friends have now claimed that the couple’s marriage was so strained that they lived apart. Ana was photographed without her wedding ring in some of the final photos taken before she disappeared on January 1.

Walshe will appear in court tomorrow on the new murder charge.

It is likely at that time that the evidence used to obtain the murder warrant will be presented.

Ana has been missing since New Year’s Day.

“Continuing investigation has now allowed police to obtain an arrest warrant charging Brian Walshe with the murder of his wife.

‘Mister. Walshe will be transported to court on the murder charge,’ Norfolk District Attorney Michael W Morrissey said in a video statement today.

Walshe is expected in court tomorrow morning.

So far, he has denied misleading the police about his wife’s disappearance.

Ana was last seen at 1:30 a.m. on January 1. She and her husband were leaving a New Year’s Eve party.

They returned to her home in Cohasset, Massachusetts, but never saw her again.

He was supposed to travel to Washington DC the next day for work, but he didn’t show up for his flight or get on his carpool to the airport.

Ana was reported missing by Tishman Spyer, the real estate company she worked for, on January 4.

A man who identified himself as the company’s head of security in Washington DC called Cohasset police to request a welfare check for her.

That man told police that he had informed Ana’s husband, Brian, that she was missing.

It contradicted Brian’s lawyer’s claim in court that he had notified her work that she was missing.

In the weeks before her disappearance, Ana had stopped wearing her wedding ring.

Friends said there was “tension” in the marriage and the couple had even started living apart.

Ana’s work responsibilities in Washington DC were a point of contention in the relationship.

His friends are now appealing for the care of their children.

Walshe is no stranger to legal trouble.

In 2018, he was convicted of fraud for stealing and attempting to sell two fake Andy Warhol paintings that he advertised as genuine.

Ana (pictured with Paul Wharton on December 13) had stopped wearing her wedding ring weeks before she disappeared.
