As of March 30, Anna’s body has not yet been discovered.

However, DNA evidence found during the investigation indicates that Brian killed, dismembered and disposed of his wife’s body parts.

He is now being held without bail.

Anna was eventually reported missing on January 4 after her employer said she did not show up to work her shift.

In initial interviews, Brian told police he last saw his wife when she left for Boston’s Logan Airport on January 1.

The pair were arrested a few days later on January 8 on suspicion of misleading the police investigation.

He was originally held on $500,000 bail after investigators said they found blood and a broken knife in the family’s basement.

Police also said they have surveillance video of Brian, wearing a medical mask and surgical gloves, buying $450 in cleaning supplies with cash at Home Depot.

If convicted of first-degree murder, Brian faces off Mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.

How do we prevent the body from decomposing?

The Massachusetts pair also researched “dismemberment” and “what happens when you put body parts in ammonia,” investigators said.

It was also claimed at the time that other Google searches for “best hack removal tool” and “can you be charged with murder without a body”.

In the basement of the couple’s home in Cohasset, police found blood, a bloodied knife, another knife, heavy-duty linoleum and plastic liners.

They also found rubbish bags, some of which contained some of them Bloodstained items including towels, rags, slippers, cleaning supplies, rugs, and a Prada purse.

The disappearance of Anna Walsh

January 1: Anna and Brian host a New Year’s Eve dinner party.

Last seen at 1.30am.

She did not show up for work in Washington, D.C., and there is no evidence that she ever made it to the airport for her flight.

January 4: The head of security at Tishman Speyer in Washington calls the police to report her missing.

The caller told the operator that he had informed her husband

January 6: A fire has been reported in the home that Anna shares with her husband

January 8: Brian Walsh has been arrested for misleading the investigation

January 9: Police revealed that they found blood in the basement of the couple’s home

January 10: Police revealed that they found rubbish bags full of bloody items, a slab and a hacksaw in a dumpster near the house.

January 17: Brian Walsh has been arrested for the murder

After initially being accused of misleading the police on January 8, Brian was charged with Anna’s murder on January 17.

Friends say the couple’s marriage was strained as a result of Anna’s grueling work schedule, which meant they spent much of their time living apart.

Anna lived partly in Washington, D.C. and Brian and their sons in Massachusetts.

He was someone with Tishman Speyer, the real estate company Anna worked with, who reported her missing in the first place.

A man who identified himself as the company’s head of security in Washington, D.C., called police in Cohasset to request a welfare check for her.

These statements contradicted Brian’s lawyer’s claim in court that he notified her work that she was missing.

Just before she disappeared, Anna was also photographed without her wedding ring in some of the final photos.

Friends said there was “tension” in the marriage because of her work schedule.

Her friends are now pleading to take care of her children.

The person who explicitly states that he does not believe Brian wanted to hurt Anna is the woman’s mother.

The Serbian Foreign Ministry said Milanka Ljubicic, 69, had signed an official request to receive documents about the case related to her daughter’s disappearance.

Ljubicic, who still resides in Serbia, told local media that she did not believe her son-in-law would harm her daughter, even though he was accused of killing her.

In January, Ljubicic told Fox News Digital that she had conversations with her daughter just before her disappearance.

The Serbian woman said, “She just said, ‘Please, Mom.’ Come tomorrow.” “Obviously there were some problems.”

Anna’s mother told the outlet, “And now I can’t forgive myself for not only letting things fall into place, but I go, and whatever happens to me happens.”

According to arrest records and local outlets, Walsh is no stranger to legal trouble.

In 2018, he was convicted of fraud for stealing and attempting to sell two fake Andy Warhol paintings that he had advertised as originals.

He was the son of a wealthy family, and is now estranged from him. His family accused him in court files of stealing millions from his elderly father after the man suffered a stroke.

His friends called him a “sociopath” and said that all he cared about was his father’s money.

Brian and Anna originally met in 2008 while she was working at a hotel in Berkshire.

They married in Serbia in 2015 and later welcomed three sons together.

Anna began working for Tishman Speyer in February of last year, accepting the position of general manager for the company’s Washington, DC office.

Although Anna’s body was not uncovered, investigators said they had enough genetic material to link Walsh to his wife’s murder.
