Norfolk County Assistant District Attorney Lynn Beland said in Quincy District Court on Wednesday that investigators found the couple’s DNA — along with a Covid vaccination card for Ana Walshe and a hacksaw, cutting shears and a hatchet — in trash bags in a dumpster at Brian Walshe’s mother’s apartment complex in Swampscott, about 40 miles north of Cohasset, where they lived.of the Walshe home.
“It is easy to charge a crime and even easier to say a person committed that crime. It is a much more difficult thing to prove it, which we will see if the prosecution can do. I am not going to comment on the evidence, first because I am going to try this case in the court and not in the media. Second, because I haven’t been provided with any evidence by the prosecution,” the statement said.
Joseph Romano's lawyers filed to appeal the conviction in 2006 but were denied based on the strength of the circumstantial evidence, court records show. Leonard Ewing Scott denied killing his wife and was sentenced to life in prison before he was released in 1978 after having served 21 years. Diane Wagner, the author of a book about the case,"Corpus Delicti" — named after athat holds that no one should be convicted of a crime without evidence that it occurred — claimed that Leonard Ewing Scott confessed to the murder and that he buried his wife in the Nevada desert.
There is a wide gulf between inference and 'beyond a reasonable doubt.'
I have a very curious mind about many things and Google stuff. I hope it's never used against me.

Interesting this one. Raises all sorts of constitutional issues. In SA we had a similar scenario with the murder of Francis Rasuge. A conviction resulted and her remains were found a while after the said conviction.
That's true because a similar case but regarding missing 2 year Bianca Jones that was killed by her farther. 'Wayne County assistant prosecutors said, even though Bianca's body wasn't recovered, there was adequate evidence Lane committed the crime.'
Yep, that Peterson case.
