Boy B’s lawyers had sought to introduce reports written by eminent psychologists who were critical of an expert called by Boy B’s trial lawyers and who said that Boy B was subjected to “manipulation and pressure” by gardaí during interviews. In his garda interviews, Boy B initially denied any knowledge of what happened to Ana and gave several different accounts of what he had done and seen.In his final interview he admitted to seeing Boy A assault Ana and remove some of her clothing but denied that he played any part in her murder. His lawyers argued at his trial that he was an innocent bystander.

In his garda interviews Boy B also admitted that Boy A had previously told him that he wanted to kill Ana.

Fresh evidence bid in Boy B appeal dismissedThe Court of Appeal has dismissed an application by one of two boys convicted of the murder of schoolgirl Ana Kriégel to introduce fresh evidence at his appeal against his conviction. Nice try! Not! Poor Anna. Why would new evidence not be allowed ? Seems odd Life should mean life. Not 13 years or 8 year reviews and definitely not new identities when released.
