"State Police forensic scientist Matthew Sheehan spent Monday afternoon walking jurors through blood and bloody items he said stretched from the basement of the Walshe home in Cohasset to a trash bin outside Brian Walshe's mother's home in Swampscott. Walshe is standing trial for allegedly killing his wife, Ana, on New Year's Day 2023. Prosecutors say he then dismembered her body and tossed her remains in dumpsters around the region, including one near his mother's home. Investigators never found her body."
"Testimony from Sheehan on Monday outlined blood splatters on the cement basement floor, traces on a knife stashed above the kitchen refrigerator, and more found on items pulled from the garbage. Prosecutors paired that evidence with surveillance footage charting Brian Walshe's movements on the afternoon of Jan. 1, 2023 - the day Ana disappeared. Beginning at 3:39 p.m., cameras captured him stopping at a Walgreens in Cohasset, heading to a dumpster behind Vinnin Liquors in Swampscott."
