Ana Walshe Case: Missing Massachusetts Woman's Dark Past with Conman Husband

According to a 2014 complaint filed in Washington, DC, missing Massachusetts mom Ana Walshe said her now-husband, accused of her abduction, had threatened to kill her and her friends.

During their relationship, she informed DC Metro police that Brian Walshe "said over the phone that he intended to kill her and her friends," according to the incident report.

Ana Walshe's Husband Threatened Her

On a bottle of champagne, missing mother Ana Walshe reportedly wished her conman husband "love, compassion, and joy" in 2023, as per NY Post.

The statement was inscribed in brilliant red letters on a Lanson Noble Cuvee champagne box left untouched after a New Year's Eve celebration at the family's home in Cohasset, Massachusetts.

On the opposite side of the box is the inscription "Gem Ana Brian 2023!" Gem Mutlu, a family friend, said in the past that he attended a party at the Walshe residence. Mutlu stated that Brian Walshe prepared an extravagant meal for the visitors and characterized the atmosphere as "festive."

There was no hint of anything other than a New Year's celebration; difficulties were put on wait. According to him, they exchanged farewell hugs, and he departed at around 1:30 a.m.

Brian Walshe appears to have left a different handwritten message at the residence in response to his wife's abduction, according to DailyMail.com. Images revealed a message marked "answer to friends" was left on a kitchen counter at the $1 million home.

Ana Walshe has not been seen since the early hours of January 1. Brian Walshe told police she awoke him at 6:00 a.m. and that she had an "urgent business matter" in Washington, DC.

The couple's passports were displayed on a tabletop in their house. The police were told that Ana Walshe used a ride-sharing service to Boston Logan International Airport, but they have uncovered no evidence that she was picked up by a car or that she departed that morning.

According to records collected by the police, her phone continued to ping from mobile towers around the family residence. Brian Walshe reported his wife missing on January 4 and was detained for allegedly deceiving police about his activities two days after her disappearance. He is being jailed on a $500,000 bond.

A criminal complaint alleges that cops discovered a knife and blood in the family's home's basement. Later, a hatchet and bloody clothing were discovered at a nearby waste site. In the days before her disappearance, Ana Walshe reportedly sold a rental house and a vehicle, promising a "big surprise" in the new year.

Brian Walshe Was Spotted in Liquor Store

Meanwhile, recently disclosed surveillance footage from behind a liquor shop showed Brian near a dumpster just hours after his wife disappeared. Five minutes away from his mother's residence in Swampscott, he is spotted near the trash at a liquor shop, where police had confiscated numerous dumpsters.

The trash can is located on Paradise Road, with a surveillance camera near a Whole Foods Market. Walshe told investigators that he stopped at the store while conducting errands for his mother.

Authorities are currently searching through the waste for any proof, NBC Boston reported. Brian was observed on surveillance footage at a juice bar in Norwell, Massachusetts, on January 2, placing an order for his three children's smoothies and two big smoothies.

Authorities discovered he was also captured on security tape at a Home Depot in Rockland. Blood traces, a hatchet, a hacksaw, a rug, and used cleaning supplies were discovered by police officers when searching dumpsters near Brian Walshe's mother's residence.

The Massachusetts State Police and local police arrested Brian Walshe on suspicion that he misled investigators during the hunt for his wife. During a hearing in Quincy District Court, Assistant Norfolk District Attorney Lynn Beland stated that he did not inform police of his January 2 purchase of $450 worth of mops, buckets, tarps, tape, and cleaning equipment from Home Depot.

She added that Brian informed police that he had visited a supermarket and a pharmacy, despite no proof that he had visited either establishment. She claimed that he misled investigators to clean up or dispose of evidence. Prosecutors accuse him of not providing a complete account of his activities in the days after his wife's disappearance while the hunt for her was ongoing.

According to federal court documents, Brian was already in home confinement while awaiting sentencing in a fraud case involving selling bogus Andy Warhol artworks. According to Cohasset police, Ana's disappearance and her husband's case appear entirely different.
