IS THERE A SHORTAGE OF DIVORCE ATTORNEYS?

Tinkrbl44 — Wed, 18 Jan 2023 22:40:43 GMT

It was in the news this week, but I'll skip the details ... same story, basically.

Husband reports wife missing. Pretends to be oh so concerned. A week later, he's arrested for her murder.

The one I'm referring to actually had done a computer search for "best ways to get rid of a body". Well, that is like a gift with a bow on it for the prosecutor handling this murder charge.

What I always wonder is this .... why risk spending the rest of your life in jail on a murder charge? These days, it's so easy for law enforcement to catch people who commit murder.

Why not just get a divorce and move on? Is there a shortage of divorce attorneys in this country?

What are your thoughts?

Because they don't want her to get half of everything?

Yeah, better to ruin several lives and give ALL your money to a criminal attorney. That's a better option, for sure, lol. Maybe just the really stupid ones commit murder.

Was he beneficiary of her "generous" life insurance policy?

If I were to commit a murder, I would have a plane ticket to some place that does not have extradition, e.g, Brazil. I wouldn't wait around for the police to catch me.

Some of them think they are smarter than the detectives.

After all they did their research, don't you know.

I watch TONS of crime shows and the one thing criminals ALL have in common is that they *think* they're smarter than the police and investigators and can get away with it. Big surprise when they don't.

As Joe Kenda used to say "criminals are stupid."

Just for clarification, if you are referring to the Ana Walsh murder, it was her employer who reported her missing:

Ana Walshe, a missing Massachusetts mom of three, was first reported missing by her employer — not her husband, according to a Cohasset, Mass., police log, multiple outlets report.

The head of security at Walshe's employer, Washington D.C. real estate firm Tishman Speyer, reportedly called police requesting a wellness check for her on Jan. 4, according to Boston 25 News.

Walshe, 39, was reported missing that day — 72 hours after she was allegedly last seen at her Cohasset, Mass., home. She was last spotted in the early morning hours of Jan. 1, when she was due to head to the airport for a flight to D.C.

According to police, her cell phone last pinged on Jan. 2 in an area near her home, reports state. The phone was turned off as of Jan. 4.

The head of security reportedly said Tishman Speyer had reached out to Walshe's husband, Brian Walshe, but that he had not filed a missing-person report.

@Love my grandkids , love Joe Kenda. He had some great shows on the ID channel. DH loved him so much, I got him a Tshirt with his picture on it saying, "my, my, my".

@HisElk1 is that the black one? I have had one for a few years. Love it!

Re: IS THERE A SHORTAGE OF DIVORCE ATTORNEYS?

HisElk1 — Wed, 18 Jan 2023 23:32:40 GMT

It's not the black one; his is a light brown in the background and Joe's face is in white with white letters.

DH loves it and wears it alot in the summer.

Funny thing, our neighbor (who thinks he's "all that" (and believe me, he's not) and claims (I use that term loosely) he was a homicide detective. He said, "I hate him; he's not that good". We just shake our heads.

criminals aren't just stupid. They are all arrogant narcissists who think they are smarter than everyone.

@HisElk1 Your neighbor was likely a security guard who is a legend in his own mind LOL.

I got his book on my Kindle years ago. It's a great read.

Women should keep their mouth shut about leaving until they have LEFT the home. It might just save their life.

I wondered why a beautiful, capable, talented woman married such an obvious sleeze bag of a man to begin with? He even looks like a murderer. Surely she had other options.

He's got to be the worlds biggest idiot to leave so many clues for detectives. Guess he never watched Forensic Files. Too busy researching how to murder your wife.

The thinking in that case is that her murder was not planned, it wasn't premeditated. Something happened between them, he killed her and everything that happened after that was an attempt to cover up the murder. A frantic, hectic, poorly thought out cover up. On many cases the husbands choose murder over divorce because they don't want lose their assets, their homes and pay child support.

@chrystaltree Yes, the legal pundits were saying that all his google searches point to him researching how to cover up the crime after the fact.

What boggles my mind is that she married this man after he threatened to kill her several years ago.

@Tinkrbl44 You could also ask if there is a shortage of therapists. In all honesty, I think there is. This guy seems to have issues from way back.

@Tinkrbl44

I don't know about a lower number of divorce attorneys, but I do know this. This guy has to be stuck in the pre-internet/pre-camera age. Say he's getting ice cream while he is being recorded on a Home Depot Camera, buying what, $450 worth of cleaning stuff?

This guy, if guilty, leaves his kids with no parent! He deserves the worst penalty for these crimes. Murder and what he did to his kids.
