Is Ana Walshe the victim of foul play? The Massachusetts woman hasn’t been seen since New Year’s Day, but the search for her has produced some interesting — and suspicious — events. Not only has it been revealed that nobody actually saw her leave her home the last time she was seen, but her former home also caught ablaze in an incredibly suspiciously timed fire. What on earth is going on with this case — and does someone close to the missing woman hold the answers?
According to Boston 25 News, the husband of missing woman Ana Walshe has told police that he never saw her leave the home in the early morning hours of New Year’s Day. The man claims that he was sleeping when she left, and even though she was expected to get a rideshare to the airport, he never actually saw this happen. So, technically, the missing woman was last seen in her home shortly after midnight — instead of later that morning as previously claimed.
Detectives claim that the husband of Ana Walshe is being cooperative in the search for her, which is fortunate. However, it should be noted that in the vast majority of cases involving women who mysteriously vanish from their homes, their spouses are almost always the first person police suspect. That’s because in the vast majority of cases involving women who are murdered, their spouses or significant others tend to be the ones responsible for the crime. That’s not to say that Ana Walshe’s husband had something to do with her disappearance, but hopefully police have done everything they can to clear him of involvement. And while they’re doing that, they should thoroughly investigate the random fire that broke out at Walshe’s former home on Friday.
What happened to this missing woman? While the details are still falling into place, it’s becoming increasingly apparent that something very wrong is going on. Did someone prey on Ana Walshe before she could even leave her home? Or did she actually make it into a rideshare only to later meet some kind of mysterious demise? Alternatively, could this missing woman be gone on her own free will? Anything is possible, so hopefully authorities in Massachusetts are looking at every single possible angle.
