Summary
Prosecutors presented devastating digital evidence including Google searches from Brian's devices for "best way to dispose of a body," "hacksaw best tool to dismember," and "how long for someone to be missing to inherit." Surveillance footage showed Walshe purchasing a hacksaw, Tyvek suit, and cleaning supplies at Lowe's on New Year's Day. Investigators recovered blood-stained items from dumpsters including Ana's Hunter boots, pieces of carpet with her DNA, and a hacksaw that tested positive for her blood. The defense argued Ana died suddenly and unexpectedly, sending Brian into a panic — but called zero witnesses and Walshe himself declined to testify. Prosecutors pointed to a $2.7 million life insurance policy, a deteriorating marriage, and Ana's affair with a D.C. realtor as motive.
Sentencing is scheduled for Wednesday where Walshe faces mandatory life in prison without the possibility of parole. Ana's sister released a statement saying simply: "Justice has been served."
