Taxpayers will now be footing the bill to defend accused Long Island murderer William Walsh now that he had to let his lawyer go since he's broke. Walsh said that he is not making any money as a stockbroker trainee and that he has no savings. For years as his wife Leah put herself through grad school and became a teacher, he bounced around managerial jobs at Charlie Brown's steakhouses, allegedly having numerous affairs and was accused of stealing from the chain. When Walsh arrived in court yesterday to face charges for the murder of his wife, he went out of his way to avoid eye contact with members of her family. Outside the court, Leah's mother called him evil and compared him to the devil.
