A no-body murder charge? ‘Finding Ana | This Disappearance of Ana Walshe’ analyzes the case and killer husband
How long before a body starts to smell? Can you stop a body from decomposing? These are just some of the questions Brian Walshe searched on New Year’s Day before his wife, 39-year-old Ana Walshe, was reported missing on January 4. Ana was last spotted by her husband, Brian Walshe, who alleged she was leaving their home in Cohasset, Massachusetts for a “work emergency.” Ana did not board a plane, nor was she seen again. Her body has not been found, and her husband was charged with murder.
