Day 4 of the Brian Walshe murder trial delivered some of the most damaging evidence yet — and it all comes down to what he was searching on Christmas Day 2022.
According to testimony from Massachusetts State Trooper Connor Keefe, Brian Walshe's phone was used to search "Ana Walshe found dead" on December 25th, 2022 — a full week before the defense claims Ana died suddenly in her sleep after a New Year's Eve party. That same day, he searched for William Fastow, the man Ana was having an affair with, along with Ana's workplace and colleagues.
William Fastow took the stand today and testified about his intimate relationship with Ana. He described a woman who was planning to leave her husband, who felt trapped by Brian's ongoing legal troubles, and who was devastated that she couldn't be with her children. Fastow said they were planning a future together — discussing what the next one, three, five, and ten years would look like.
The last time Fastow heard from Ana was a Happy New Year's text at midnight on December 31st. After that, silence. When Brian called Fastow on January 4th to ask if he'd seen Ana, Fastow said he sounded calm — almost casual — like nothing was wrong.
Prosecutors also showed surveillance footage from an Abington apartment complex on January 3rd, 2023. The video shows a man getting out of a Volvo consistent with Brian's vehicle, throwing a trash bag into a dumpster, and driving away. Cell phone data placed Brian at three different apartment complexes with dumpsters that same afternoon.
The defense wants the jury to believe this is all the result of panic after discovering his wife dead. But panic doesn't explain searching to see if your wife has been "found dead" a week before she supposedly dies.
Trooper Keefe returns for cross-examination.
