Walsh came in with a bailiff, shackled.
Have you made a decision about whether you wish to testify at this trial?
And what is your decision?
Hey, Lester.
Thanks for having me.
Sure.
I think a lot of people were surprised.
I'm not a defense attorney, and a case like this is complicated, and it calls for all kinds of strategies that may or may not work.
Keep in mind the defense did a lot of work cross-examining the prosecution witnesses and poking holes in the prosecution's case.
Defense attorney Larry Tipton was clear.
He said the prosecution didn't prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt, especially that Brian Walsh planned to murder his wife.
He agreed that, yes, Brian lied to police, he made incriminating internet searches, and he disposed of Anna's body.
But those actions didn't make Brian guilty of murder, let alone murder in the first degree.
Tipton described Walsh as a loving father and a loving husband, and that he had no reason to kill his wife.
Well, they were pretty solidly throughout this trial saying that Brian Walsh knew his wife, Anna, had a crush on William Fastow, but that Brian didn't know about the affair and that the two were preparing for a future together.
He showed the jury pictures of a champagne bottle Anna gave Brian on New Year's Eve and a message Anna wrote.
So this all goes back to motive.
If Brian didn't know about the affair, how could the prosecution say that was his motive to kill his wife?
What did the defense have to say about that?
Well, Brian's defense attorney focused on the timing of the Internet searches.
