From the story in the Globe:

Investigators have found blood and a damaged knife with blood on it in the basement of the Cohasset home where Ana Walshe was living with her husband, Brian R. Walshe, who bought $450 of cleaning supplies before the mother of three was reported missing to authorities, a prosecutor said in court Monday.

During the arraignment of Brian Walshe Monday on a single count of misleading police, Norfolk First Assistant District Attorney Lynn M. Beland described the discoveries police have made since launching a high-profile search for 39-year-old Ana Walshe last week.

Beland said that while executing a search warrant this weekend at the Cohasset home where the couple has been living with their three children, they discovered blood and a damaged knife with blood on it in the basement. Beland did not specify in what way the knife was damaged, nor did she provide details about the bloodstains police found.

Ana Walshe has not been heard from since she left her home around 4 a.m. on New Year’s Day to take a rideshare to Logan International Airport for a flight to Washington, D.C., where she works for a real estate company, family have told police. Investigators have not been able to confirm she took a rideshare, but have determined she did not board a flight from Logan, according to Cohasset police Chief William Quigley.

This had Gone Girl written all over it at the start, til it came out that the husband was a lot bigger of an asshole than Ben Afflecks character. He’s too stupid to not get caught selling fake art, why did he think he could get away with murder and disposal of a body when he’s already facing federal charges? Just a wild story all around.

Why are they giving him bail???

bail was for interfering in a police investigation, which is standard. Since the charges are undoubtedly about to be, uh, expanded, bail's gonna be revoked quickly.

$450 in cleaning supplies!?

fucker wanted to get caught

Also, he has a federal case pending, for which the feds can revoke bail for that case.

More from WCVB… this guy is a really stupid criminal.

“5 Investigates has learned, through court documents, that Brian Walshe is awaiting sentencing in a federal case involving fake Andy Warhol paintings, and he is required to report his whereabouts as part of his probation in that case.

Brian Walsh said he left the couple's home on New Year's Day, got lost on the way to his mother's house and went to both Whole Foods and CVS. However, prosecutors said there's no video surveillance or receipts showing him at either of the stores.

He also reported that he only left the couple's home the next day to get ice cream for his son; however, surveillance video at Home Depot in Rockland showed him purchasing $450 worth of cleaning supplies, including mops, a bucket and drop cloths and various kinds of tape, officials said.

"He's on surveillance at that time on Jan. 2, even though he said he never left the house. Police obtained a search warrant and actually searched the house with crime scene services. During that time, they found blood in the basement. Blood was found in the basement area, as well as a knife, which also contained some blood," Norfolk Assistant District Attorney Lynn Beland said.”

Also:

“Ana Walshe's cellphone pinged in the area of the couple's home on Jan. 1 and Jan. 2, which is after the time that the defendant said his wife left the area, Beland said.”

Got lost on his way to his mother’s house? Riiight.

"Criminals are stupid" is a good default.

Welp.

“In addition, investigators found search queries on Brian Walshe’s internet records for “how to dispose of a 115-pound woman’s body” and how to dismember a body, according to two law enforcement sources briefed on the investigation. Investigators turned their focus from a missing persons case to suspicion she may have been killed after receiving new information in the last three days, the sources told CNN.”

Maybe cleaning the house was just really high up on their list of New Year's Resolutions. /s

I'm no lawyer but that seems like a lot of evidence against the husband to me. Did they do forensics on the blood found on the knife? And did the husband have to explain what that blood was there for?

And the multiple lies he told investigators. He’s done, he’s locked up and not going anywhere.

I’m just glad the boys are safe.

With an anklet on…

Might as well have searched for "How to be arrested for murder."

Just heard this - good grief this guy is a moron

And as an aside looks like a cartoon character

This has strong Austin Powers penis pump scene vibe.

After he googled how to dispose of a 120lbs woman 🤣 such a boomer

Previous poster said it was ‘how to dismember a 115lb woman’. That’s a pretty stark inconsistency to me.

/s

Nobody gets lost anymore. Such bullshit.
