and bu and. prosecutors say a massachusetts man killed and dismembered his wife because he wanted to end their marriage. on the day of her disappearance, they say he searched the internet for can you be charged with murder without a body and can you throw away body parts. brian walshe made his first court appearance on wednesday. prosecutors say he disposed of his wife's body narts dumpsters around boston. >> he said, i waive everything, let's get to this and the judge said, no, i need to hear this and then it just began. you could hear a pin drop in that courtroom as the prosecutor just went through, first these internet searches and then all the other items brought in as well. it wasn't just the internet searches. we also learned today they have

video surveillance of brian walshe taking trash bags and loading them into dumpsters. the reason we don't have those trash bags, those went to an incinerator in southwest massachusetts. >> during the divorce it's believed brian walshe dismembered her body. >> reporter: chilling new details revealed in court described by prosecutors describing the evidence against a massachusetts father who allegedly murdered his wife and tried to cover it up. brian walshe in custody since january 8th when he was charged with misleading investigators searching for his wife was in court for the arraignment and formally chargeded with anna walshe's murder. the prosecution laid out some of the disturbing evidence against walshe, saying he used his son's

ipad to make numerous online searches in the days before she disappeared. >> the defendant googled, what's the state to divorce for a man. on 5:54 a.m. on january 1st he searched, how long before a body starts to smell. at 4:58 a.m., how to stop a body from decomposing. >> reporter: walshe only search his head once as more of his searches came to light. >> searched how to find a body. ten ways to dispose of a dead body if you really need to. at 6:25 on the 1st, how long for someone to be missing to inherit. >> reporter: ana's employer, a d.c. real estate firm was the first to report her missing when she didn't show up for work on january 4th. that's when police went to the walshe's home for a well-being

check. >> the defendant first recorded his wife missing. >> reporter: during the course of the investigation, police found ten trash bags from a dumpster and trash facility with items including towels, rags, slippers, tape, gloves, cleaning agents, a covid-19 vaccine card with ana walshe's name on it, a hacksaw and axes. they also found portions of a neck last believed to be have been worn by ana walshe in several photos, the presence of dna from both ana and brian walshe. defendant's attorney called out prosecutors for leaks in the case in a statement read, as the prosecutor leaks so-called evidence to the press before me, their case isn't that strong. also saying, it is easy to

charge a crime and even easier to say a person committed that crime. it's a much more difficult thing to prove it, which we will see if the prosecution can do. >> reporter: despite all the evidence revealed in court, prosecutors say many of the trash bags walshe allegedly through out items inside, they believe those items were incinerated before they could get their hands on it. jason carroll, cnn, quincy, massachusetts. >> they haven't said if they have any of her remains. cnn spoke a forensic scientist. >> where is the body? they have dna that can demonstrate that on the bloody broken knife in the basement and in the blood that was left in the basement that he failed to clean up, we know that this matches ana. and so it's going to be very

circumstantial. they found also this bloody rug at the transfer station, and that also -- that's dna. it comes back to ana. there's a lot of information about some crime of violence given hacksaws and hatchets and, you know, $450 to try to clean up the scene amateurs don't clean up scenes very well. professional companies, they exist to clean up crime scenes. he's sloppy. it's an amazing thing when you put all this together and look at the doing the searches but without a body it's a challenge. but they can certainly get a conviction if not first-degree, at least second-degree murder even without a body.

>> charges will be coming if charges will be filed in the alec baldwin film "rust." bouldin fired the gun, he blames the film's armory for loading it without blanks and handing him the gun. the u.s. government is expected to reach its debt limit today, setting up a political standoff between the white house of republicans in congress, the u.s. treasury can keep the government open with so-called extraordinary measures for a few months but treasury secretary janet yellen warned lawmakers there is considerable uncertainty around that timeline and the risk of default is real. cnn's phil mattingly has more from the white house. >> reporter: the warning from janet yellen was ominous and very intentional and part of a plan currently being rolled out by the biden administration, one they plan to stick to in the months ahead.

that warning was the fact that the debt ceiling is going to be hit on thursday. keep in mind, that does not mean the u.s. is going to default. there are extraordinary measures in terms of shifting funds around, prioritizing what investments get made when. the treasury can and has deployed overly several years of these battles, and they will, and that should get them roughly four or five months before the true threat of default is on the table. they have been steadfast and blunt on the fact there will be no negotiations, there be no coming to the table, no horse trading with the house republican majority that's made very clear a clean debt ceiling increase is not on the table. that means there's a stalemate, one likely to last for the next several months. when you talk to white house officials behind the scenes, they made clear two things -- one, they believe this is simply not a negotiation they can have. in terms of pure governance moving forward and pay the bills that's already been accrued,

which is what the debt ceiling represents, this is a necessary move that needs to be made. obviously, that diverges from the last several years of republican and democratic debates over this year. white house officials firmly believe politically they are in a good place on this issue, whatever republicans put on the table, whether it's cuts to entitlement programs like medicare or social security, prioritizing certain bills be paid or certain debts be paid instead of others. they feel like they can win the messaging battle on that. there's the politics, policy and certainly the logistics of governance white house officials are sticking to. this is the plan they've been working through, closely coordinated with senate majority leader chuck schumer, hakeem jeffries and the treasury department as well and laying out the battle lines for what is certainly to be a very intense fight in the months ahead. the way out, white house officials say there's only one, a clean debt increase. where this all ends, it could

bring us dangerously close, something that's never happened in the history of the country -- default. phil mattingly, cnn, the who us. sources tell cnn the u.s. is finalizing a $2.5 million aid package for ukraine. the highlight is expected to be stryker vehicles, capable of moving infantry across a battlefield and mine-resistant vehicles known at mraps. volodymyr zelenskyy says shipments cannot come soon enough. he spoke to the world economic forum by video link. he says russia is exporting terror and a large number of ukrainians have lost their lives. first, claire, where is the apprehension here on sending this equipment?

why does ukraine need specific items? >> you see the latest u.s. package according to sources is tailored to the fighting in the east. we're seeing different armored vehicles that can improve their maneuverability across the battlefield and get them closer to the russian front liknes. a concern in ukraine is they are still outgunned. russia sustains advantage in weapons, military equipment, and russia could be getting ready to mount a new offensive. president zelenskyy spoke about how he expects russia to bring new iranian drones into play. they're very concerned in ukraine. that is why we see the significant uptick in requests for weapons. they are seizing this moment when we see a real coalescing of alliance around them. >> what response is he getting

from the leaders there? >> one thing ukraine wants is tanks. they have done for weeks now and some countries agree. some have pledged tanks but many tanks, particularly in europe, were made by germany and they need germany's approval to re-export them to ukraine and germany has yet to give that. in davos you had president zelenskyy speaking remotely addressing germany and you had olaf scholz with a huge amount of pressure on ukraine and other leaders, but they didn't speak specifically to tanks but scholz said we won't do something ourselves, together with others, especially the u.s. and the u.s. is not ready to commit tanks to the efforts. the abrams tanks they say would have logistical difficulties. there is a meeting of defense

ministers today between america and germany. there's a big summit of defense ministers tomorrow. we may get updates on this issue of tanks. >> greta also speaking today in davos. just released prosecute police custody in germany, in fact. she always gets so much attention and she has the ear of leaders. >> and she will rock the boat. i'm sure everyone is bracing for greta's arrival in davos. she's being joined by other young climate activists. this is a place where every year there are people saying, look at all these ceos flying in by private jet to talk about climate change. so you can expect that to be high up on her agenda of things she'd like to change and all the ceos of oil majors are there as well. that could be quite interesting today. >> thank you both very much. the u.s. coast guard says this is a suspected spy ship loitering near the hawaiian islands.

they released video of the vessel believed to be gathering surveillance. in a stunning and unexpected announcement, new zealand's prime minister says she's resigning and stepping down in just a matter of weeks. speaking at a labor party retreat, got choked up as she says she doesn't have the energy to lead the government anymore and will not seek re-election. this was a shock, wasn't it, to people in new zealand? >> reporter: this was a stunning announcement for people in new zealand and around the world. we heard from the prime minister of new zealand who said she didn't have the energy to stand for re-election in october and plans to step down as leader of her country by february 7th. i want you to take a listen to what she says next.

>> i'm entering my sixth year in office. for each of these years i have given my absolute all. i believe leading a country is the most privileged job anyone could ever have, and also the most challenging. you cannot and should not do it unless you have a full tank and a bit in reserve for those unexpected challenges. >> she added she's not leaving the job because the job was tough. she went on to list the number of challenges she and her government faced in the last 5 and a half years while she's been in power, including the covid-19 pandemic, including the deadly voe contain noticic eruption and the christchurch terror attacks when a terrorist targeted two mosques, taking the lives of 51 people. she responded with both compassion and decisive action. on the international stage she's been heralded for her strong

progressive views and style of leadership, but inside new zealand she was facing a number of political headwinds. as for what's next for her, again, she plans to stand down, resign as prime minister february 7th, she has no other plans professionally as of yet but says she's looking forward to being there with her 4-year-old daughter when she starts school later in the year and, in her words, to finally get married with her partner. back to you, max. >> no rush getting another job. thank you very much. we have this just into cnn, at least one person has been killed, dozens of others injured at a stadium stampede in iraq. this report is coming in from the news agency ina. it happened in the southern city of bazra. large crowds were waiting for the final stage match between a iraq and iran. still to come, unusual instance at u.s. airports.

investigating why an american airlines 777 taxied onto the runway as a delta air lines 737 was taking off at the same time. the faa says those planes only came within 1,000 feet of each other in the end. now the new development, a source familiar telling me that the runway safety lights, the runway status lights, a system that warns pilots exactly against incidents like this, was, in fact, operating and airport staff immediately went to check out if it was working properly. the runway status lights are something that are only at about 20 commercial airports nationwide. also at jfk. the idea is to make it so that pilots can easily see if a runway is being used for takeoff or if it's unsafe to cross. the investigation is still ongoing here. the national transportation safety board tells us that interviews are ongoing.

getting the run-around from santos. santos never transferred the $3,000 to the veteran. santos told the news outlet, the story first reported by patch was fake and he had no clue who is. osthoff said he didn't get they far with the police when he alerted them. sapphire died three months after his last contact with santos. osthoff panhandled for the dog's euth euthanize. the police said when we got, we sought delivery of the funds from the organizer. he organizer failed to respond which led to it the fund-raiser being removed and the account prohibited from further use on our platform. this is not an isolated incident involving santos. this appears to be part of a long pattern of alleged deception.

cnn, washington. that navy veteran spoke with cnn about his claims and the texts he says he exchanged with george santos. >> she died about four months after this all went down. there was a string of texts between me and devolder. i talked to him one time on the phone. in one of the texts i was so upset -- i knew i wasn't going to get the money at that point. i said, i know you mined my dog and my friends' and families' hearts to raise money for himself and he said that was the most offensive thing anyone had said to him. that was the breaking point where he decided he was not going to get the money or break away from me. he knew i wouldn't call him back. he was off the hook. he wanted to create a wedge between us. >> george santos is responding telling cnn's don lemon, i have no clue what he's talking about that and the crazy part is anyone that knows me, knows i'd go to hell and back for a dog, especially a veteran.

this is just more of the pile-on effect. i have dozens of people reaching out to me in support sharing their stories about their dogs and cats that i help save and rescue. a defeated republican candidate for legislature made his first court appearance on wednesday. he's accuse of masterminding a plot of shooting at the homes of democratic officials. solomon pena's attorney says at this point the charges against her client are merely accusations. cnn's josh campbell has the details on that. >> we are on the record on solomon pena -- >> reporter: solomon pena, wearing a red jump suit shackled, appearing in front of a judge for the first time. >> your attorney will be calling you at the podium behind you. >> reporter: he gave thumbs up in response to the judge and the court ruled the case will move to district court. the 2020 election denier and former republican candidate for the new mexico state house is

pena's criminal past and extremism are emerging. he served roughly seven years in prison for burglary and larceny. last year after getting crushed by almost 50 percentage points in his bid for the new mexico state house, he accused his opponent of rigging the collection. one former staffer tells cnn that the 39-year-old was quite excentric and allegiance to donald trump could set him off. called another politician anti-trump. evidence of pena's devotion to trump are prominent. video appears to show him at three rallies in washington, d.c. cnn's cameras captured what appears to be pena at a trump rally in phoenix. he was post a tweet of himself attending. in another post, he wrote he stands with trump and never conceded his own race in new mexico. the same type of conspiracy theory law enforcement warns could lead to violence. >> i don't care if it's a

republican or a democrat elected leader, violence against elected leaders will not be tolerated. >> reporter: in a statement pena's attorney says these charges are merely allegations. they have not yet been tested by the rigorous judicial process. he says he will aggressively defend his client. one question we this is if the judge would release the suspect on bail. the court ordering for the time being he will remain in custody. it's at least former most wanted man scheduled to be in court right now, who was on the run for 30 years until he was finally caught checking in at a private health care clinic on monday. he's facing his first court hearing since he was put behind bars. we're monitoring the developments from rome. we're going to get details. what's the process with this legal hearing? >> reporter: this is really interesting. it's a big day for italian justice. this is a man convicted in

ab absentia on a number of murder trials. it's a three-tier system. he was convicted in the first degree. everyone is allowed an automatic right to appeal to this is the apellant level and his lawyer happens to be his niece. she's an untried criminal defense lawyer. we'll be learning more about her defense of him. this is the first time he'll be facing a judge. it's not the last time either. all of the cases he was convicted in absentia will have to go through this process. we can expect the coming months with him in the court. he's not in the courtroom today. he's in a maximum security prison with the cancer wing. he's being treated for cancer here on the mainland. we don't know if he'll eventually go into a courtroom but today just appearing by video link. >> we'll be watching. thanks for joining us from rome. the u.s. justice department says authorities have arrested the founder of cryptocurrency exchange accused of being an

[ speaking foreign language ] >> speaking german there. we'll bring you the british -- the english translation.

lloyd austin will be speaking in english when it crosses to him. currently, this is the new defense minister addressing the group there. [ speaking foreign language ] >> as anna and claire were describing to us earlier, you saw the dynamic here is currently focused on ukraine and what sort of support the west can be offering ukraine. and germany suggesting that it can only offer certain vehicles if america offers them first. we're trying to hear from the u.s. about what sort of vehicles they'll be sending, military vehicles and defense vehicles over to ukraine. that will probably define what the germans send, too. there's a lot of apprehension that the more lethal the weapons are that they send there, the

more that could be seen as an escalation in the conflict by russia and could have a side effect of creating more aggression from russia. we'll wait to hear what lloyd austin has to say when he speaks. [ speaking foreign language [ [ speaking foreign language ] >> good morning, everybody. minister, thanks for hosting me today. i know that i'm your first visitor since you've taken office, but since you've only been in office for an hour,

that's not surprising. but nonetheless, thanks for hosting us. congratulations on your appointment as minister. i very much look forward to working together with you. and it's great to be back in germany. you know, i've got a lot of fond memories of your country from my first assignment here as a young officer. germany remains one of our most important allies. now, i wanted to express my deep sorrow over the tragic helicopter crash near kyiv yesterday that took the lives of more than a dozen people, including ukraine's interior minister, denys monastyrsky. it's been a turbulent time for european and global security, but throughout the crisis caused by russia's unprovoked invasion

of ukraine, germany has remained a true friend of the united states and a staunch defender of our allies and values. so, we'll continue to support the ukrainian people as they resist russian aggression and defend their sovereign territory. i like to thank the german government for all it's done to strengthen ukraine's self-defense. your contributions of security assistance and training for ukraine's defenders have been invaluable. i also appreciate your strong support for our increased presence and for logistical operations to quickly move soldiers and equipment to and through germany to reinforce our eastern flank allies. tomorrow at ramstein, we'll join our allies and partners at the year's first meeting of the ukrainian defense contact group.

and we'll renew our united commitment to support ukraine's self-defense for the long haul. so, at our meeting today, we'll discuss some of the issues that we'll tackle tomorrow at the contact group, together with our friends. we'll also discuss other key issues for nato and for our bilateral defense relationship and ways we can do even more together. mr. minister, thanks again for the warm welcome and i look forward to a great discussion today and to working very closely with you. it's great -- again, great to be back in germany. thank you very much. >> the u.s. and german defense ministers there meeting for the

first time. the german defense minister, as lloyd austin is pointing out, has literally been in office for an hour. a pretty generic set of statements there ahead of the key meeting. obviously, at center of their discussions will be ukraine. obviously, the united states providing, by far, the largest amount of military aid to ukraine. but with the support of europe and certainly germany a key player there. and a completely new type of policy really for the germany, which in the past pre-ukraine would not have been adding much military support, but it is now. it's a huge change for germany and the german defense minister leading that. we'll have more on "early start" coming up. right now, more firepower. $2 million of we
