Missing Massachusetts mother of three, Ana Walshe, begged her mother to fly to the US just a week before she disappeared on New Year’s Day.
The 39-year-old real estate executive asked her Serbian mother, Milanka Lujubicic, on Christmas Day to catch a flight to Washington DC on December 26.
Ljubicic, 69, said the sudden request to meet over the holidays made her think there were “some problems” in her daughter’s life.
It comes when police discovered “evidence” at a garbage facility near the mother-in-law’s home in Peabody, which also has a compactor.

Ana disappeared on January 1 when she was unable to catch a flight to Washington DC for work, and her husband Brian Washe, 46, was charged with “misleading” the police regarding their investigation.
Police have been searching for the missing mother and last night they were seen digging through trash for evidence days after raiding the family’s home in Cohasset.
Ana’s mother, Ljubicic, said Fox Digital News: ‘She just said, ‘Please, Mom. Come tomorrow”. Clearly, there must have been some problems.
‘I told him ‘I can’t fix myself in a day. I am 69 years old, I have to get my medicines and a thousand other things’.
“And now I can’t forgive myself for not letting things fall where they may, and just going, and whatever happens to me, will happen.”
Walshe was previously seen on surveillance video shopping for heavy cleaning supplies despite telling police he had been home when Ana was last seen alive.
But the investigation into Ana’s disappearance took a grim turn Monday when it was revealed that Walshe had run Google searches on “how to dispose of the body of a 115-pound woman.”
Ana was described as being 5’2 and around 115 pounds in favor of the public after she went missing.

Ana, 39, was reported missing on January 4 after failing to show up for work.
Walshe told police the mother-of-three disappeared after taking a car to Boston’s Logan Airport on January 1.
However, ride-sharing services do not show pickups at the family’s home, according to WCVBand Ana’s cell phone continued to ring from there for two days after she allegedly left the house.
Ana wasn’t reported missing until January 4, when her office called the police because she didn’t show up for work.
Since then, police have been combing the coastal town of Cohasset for any sign of her.
Initially treated as a missing persons case, the investigation was upgraded to a homicide after Walshe’s internet search queries, which included how to dismember a human body, were discovered.
Prosecutors said Walshe gave police misleading statements about his and his wife’s actions at the time of their disappearance, giving him enough time to clean up a possible crime scene.
‘These various statements caused a delay in the investigation to the point that during the period of time that he did not denounce his wife and gave various statements, that gave him time to clean up the evidence, dispose of the evidence and cause a delay, ‘ said prosecutor Lynn Beland on Monday.

But he didn’t appear on surveillance footage at any of those stores, and instead of going out for ice cream on Jan. 2, he was seen on video going to a Home Depot where he picked up about $450 worth of mops, buckets, tarps , tape and other cleaning products. He wore a mask and gloves during the journey.
After obtaining a search warrant for the Walshe home, blood was discovered in the basement, along with a bloody and damaged knife.
Walshe has yet to be charged in his wife’s disappearance and has pleaded not guilty to his misleading police charge. He is currently being held on a $500,000 bond.
Walshe was already under house arrest on wire fraud charges from a 2018 scam in which he sold a pair of fake Any Warhol paintings for $80,000 on eBay.
He pleaded guilty to the scheme in 2021.
Under house arrest, Walshe had assigned hours in which he was allowed to leave the house.
During her January 2 outing to Home Depot, she was allegedly taking her children to school, even though the school was closed that day.
