Brian Walshe was charged Tuesday with murder in the death of his wife Ana Walshe, a prominent Massachusetts real estate mogul and mother of three who has been missing since the beginning of the year.
"Early in this investigation, the police developed probable cause to believe that [Ana Walshe's] husband, Brian Walshe, age 47, has misled police investigators in material matters important to the search," Norfolk District Attorney Michael W. Morrissey said. "The continued investigation has now allowed police to obtain an arrest warrant charging Brian Walshe with the murder of his wife."
