    This is the guy who got all his Google searches read in court right? Why the fuck didn’t he take a plea?

    "Defense attorney Larry Tipton said that Ana Walshe died a sudden, unexplained death. When Brian Walshe found her unresponsive in their bed after celebrating the holiday with a friend at their home, he panicked and began searching the internet for how best to dispose of a body, Tipton said."

    This is such an insane defensive argument lmfao. This lie sounds like the kind of terrible lie I would have told a cop when I was a teenager.

    That's the guy. There wasn't a plea deal offered. He plead guilty to two lesser charges a couple weeks before jury selection.

    He goes by "The killer of Ana Walshe" now.

    I say it’s usually the spouse.

    A woman has never murdered in the history of the world. Great point!

    Not true. In Port Lincoln, South Australia, a woman killed her partner and cut off his head after the fact.

    It's always a crazy.

    I dated a gal who pushed me down the stairs when I suggested she cut back on drinking. As it turned out, her previous partner died under strange circumstances.

    I get that everyone deserves a legal defense, but really? They went with that?

    I can't get over how hilariously bad and flimsy that argument is, it's honestly very funny and the defense lawyer should consider quitting his job and writing a courtroom comedy series with Michael Schur

    it's perfectly normal to find a loved one dead and the first instinct is to find out how to dispose of the body.

    isn't it?

    Wife dies suddenly and your first thought is ”How do I dispose of a body”

    But wait, he clearly asked for help at Home Depot. Did the jury not see him ask for help? Unfair.

    No one finds their wife died in the bed and then decides to cut the body up and hide it. What a ridiculous story, they don’t even try to come up with anything. She deserved so much better than him.

    There is no one on the planet who thinks, upon finding their partner had died of natural causes in the night, that the next step is to cut up the body.

    Ah I remember this guy. Initially infamous for Googling “how to dispose of a body”. Plus this guy was definitely playing well above his league

    “10 ways to dispose of a dead body if you really need to” as if he was looking for a buzzfeed article or something 😭

    “Prosecutors have alleged that Walshe was motivated by money — he was the sole beneficiary of his wife’s $2.7 million life insurance policy — and by an affair she was having with a realtor in Washington, D.C.”

    He’s a giant piece of shit.
