A Massachusetts jury is now deciding whether Brian Walshe murdered his wife, Ana. Deliberations began Friday after weeks of testimony.
Walshe is charged with killing Ana Walshe in January 2023. Prosecutors allege he dismembered her body to hide the crime. He has pleaded not guilty.
The case gained national attention due to its gruesome details. Ana Walshe, a mother of three, was reported missing by her employer. Investigators say they found evidence, including blood and cleaning supplies, in the family's home and at a trash facility.
If convicted, Walshe faces a mandatory sentence of life in prison with no possibility of parole.
