'10 ways to dispose of a dead body' among Brian Walshe's alleged online searches after wife Ana's disappearance
QUINCY - Among the gruesome details revealed at Brian Walshe's arraignment on Wednesday for the murder of his wife Ana was a lengthy list of online searches concerning the disposal of a dead body and crime scene clean-up.
Assistant Norfolk District Attorney Lynn Beland said that in the early morning of January 1, just hours after a friend left the couple's Cohasset home for a New Year's Eve celebration, Brian Walshe used his son's iPad to Google search "How long before a body starts to smell?" Beland also alleged that a few days earlier, Brian searched for the best states in which to divorce.
