The jury has spent the last few days watching Boy B's interviews with Gardaí.
One of two boys accused of murdering Ana Kriegel told detectives the other boy had told him he was planning to kill her a month beforehand, the trial has heard.
Both he and his co-accused deny murdering the Kildare schoolgirl at a derelict farmhouse in Dublin on May 14th last year.
The jury has spent the past few days watching Boy B’s recorded interviews after he was re-arrested on suspicion of Ana Kriegel’s murder.
In one of his final interviews with Gardaí, Boy B told them that Boy A told him he was planning to kill her but he didn't think he was being serious.
He said he told him about a month before Ana was found dead in an abandoned house in Lucan.
When he allegedly told him, he said he replied: “in your dreams”.
He said he thought was joking and didn't think he'd actually do it.
When asked why he didn't tell anyone, he said he was “scared” and didn't know what to do.
He said his brain was “frozen”.
He was asked why he made up stories and he said he was scared of “being framed” by the other boy.
He said he ashamed he ran away without helping, but said he was scared and the only thing he could think of was to go.
