But before all of that, we're heading to the Norfolk County Courthouse in Massachusetts, where there has been a stunning development in the case of Brian Walsh.

39-year-old mother of three, Anna Walsh, has been missing since New Year's Day 2023.

Her husband, Brian, initially told police that Anna had taken a rideshare early New Year's Day to catch a flight to Washington, D.C., where she worked, but there was no record that she ever took a flight and no evidence that she ever used her credit cards or her phone after that morning.

When they searched Brian's home, investigators found blood in the basement and a knife.

A week after Ana's disappearance, Brian was arrested and charged with misleading an investigation.
