Brian Walshe spent two days in court this week as his lawyers worked to try and have the explosive Google search evidence that's been used in the murder case against him tossed. The lawyers questioned several investigators — many of them familiar from the Karen Read trial.
In today's episode, NBC10 Boston's chief legal analyst, Michael Coyne, explains why these were "very significant hearings," how they appear to have been informed by the Read case and what it would mean for the prosecution if the "incredibly incriminating searches" are thrown out as "fruit of the poisonous tree."

There's a new judge overseeing the Ana Walshe murder case, and she's pushing to get it moving along faster — in fact, she set a trial date before the end of 2025. To better understand Judge Diane Freniere's approach to the Walshe case, we sat down with NBC10 legal analyst Michael Coyne, who pointed out that "time is a real thief" when it comes to testimony in murder trials.
He also shared what he thinks is the most damning evidence presented so far (it's not the infamous Google searches), and what the hold-up has been in the defense's request for evidence on the lead investigator that's tied to the Karen Read case. For updates to the case as they happen, visit
