Brian Walshe sat across from detectives and told them everything was fine. Happy marriage. No affair. No idea where his wife went. He said he'd "never do anything to hurt" Ana. What investigators didn't tell him right away was that they'd already pulled his search history—queries like "how long before a body starts to smell" and "can you be charged with murder without a body."

In this interview, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke—former chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program—breaks down the recorded police interviews that are now central evidence in the Brian Walshe murder trial. For 21 years, Dreeke's job was catching people in lies that threatened national security. He knows what deception looks like under pressure, and he's walking us through exactly what Walshe's words, delivery, and behavior reveal.

We dig into the specific tells: Why did Walshe volunteer that his wife's texts sometimes popped up on his phone? What does it mean when someone fabricates alibi details that surveillance footage directly contradicts? How does a person maintain composure across multiple interviews while their laptop contains a roadmap to dismemberment?

Dreeke explains the difference between genuine denial and performance, why guilty people often give too much information, and what baseline behavioral shifts—like a suddenly rushed demeanor at daycare drop-off—actually signal. This isn't speculation. It's pattern recognition from someone who spent two decades in rooms with people whose lies had consequences.

The Walshe trial is happening right now. The jury is hearing these recordings. And once you understand what to listen for, you'll never hear them the same way.
