NO BODY NO CASE: AFFAIR ENDS IN DISMEMBERMENT AFTER "CUCKOLD PORN?"

04 Dec 2025

Description

Brian Walshe pleads guilty to misleading police and improperly disposing of a body, leaving only themurder charge for the trial. Prosecutors believe Walshe is motivated to murder by an affairand a $2.7 Million dollar life insurance policy with Brian Walshe as the beneficiary. The statesays unhappy marriage, sick internet searches, and DNA evidence all point to Brian Walshe ashis wife Ana’s killer. Three days before Ana Walshe is last seen alive, a PornHub video is viewed on Brian Walshe’slaptop about a “cheating wife,” tying in to prosecutors’ theory Walshe knew Ana was having an affair. On cross exam, an investigator admits the viewer did not specifically search for ‘cheating’ or ‘cuckold’ materials, and may have stumbled on the video from an unrelated search for a particular actress. Prosecutors paint the picture of the Walshe marriage as a crumbling house, Ana befriends andbecomes romantically involved with another man, William Fastow, and Brian is looking for a way out. Ana is with Fastow on Christmas Eve and misses her flight back to Cohasset, ending up driving back home and missing most of Christmas with her family. Less than 48 hours later, Brian Walshe is online looking for favorable states for men to get a divorce. On December 27th, Brian Walshe makes several divorce related searches, including “best strategies to divorce for a man,” and “What’s the best state to divorce for a man.” Walsheclaims he discussed divorce with Ana several times due to his ongoing Andy Warhol fraud case,concerned about protecting their assets and children. Walshe tells police Ana left home between 6 and 7am on January first for a "work emergency"and tells officers he did not question her because he didn't want to have another argument about missing a holiday. Investigators begin looking at Walshe's internet activity and find out he searches for the name of his wife's lover, William Fastow, on Christmas Day. On January 1st, 4:54am Walshe searches "Best Way to Dispose of a body".
