Summary
Massachusetts State Trooper Connor Keefe read the messages aloud in Norfolk Superior Court. They show Brian Walshe's tone shifting from casual to concerned to frantic between January 2nd and January 4th, 2023 — the day he finally reported Ana missing. One text ended with "I still love you!!! haha." According to prosecutors, Ana was already dead when he typed those words. None of the messages were ever delivered. Her phone was never recovered.
The jury also saw the tools prosecutors say Brian used to dismember his wife's body. Retired Trooper Heather Sullivan removed each item from evidence bags and displayed them in open court: a hatchet, hacksaw, hammer, garden shears, snippers, packing tape, and a measuring cup. All recovered from a dumpster near Brian's mother's Swampscott apartment.
Defense attorney Larry Tipton pushed back hard during cross-examination, arguing investigators cherry-picked evidence from a narrow two-week window and ignored context that showed a normal marriage. He highlighted texts from December 2022 where Brian and Ana discussed buying property and shopping for a Porsche. Tipton also invoked the name Michael Proctor — the disgraced state trooper from the Karen Read case who was the original case officer on Ana Walshe's disappearance.
State Medical Examiner Richard Atkinson began testimony about examining items from the trash for human tissue. He returns Monday with findings.
Brian Walshe has pleaded guilty to misleading police and improperly disposing of Ana's body — but the jury doesn't know that. He's fighting the first-degree murder charge. The defense claims he found Ana dead and panicked. Prosecutors say he planned and executed her killing, then performed the role of worried husband while disposing of evidence.
