Former State pathologist Marie Cassidy said Ana met a ‘horrific death’

Glenwood House, the large 200-year-old farmhouse in the townland of Coldblow, Lucan is not a pleasant place.

Garda White searched the building “as quickly as possible” before coming to a room at the front of the house which would later be designated “Room One”. The light was poor but the garda could make out a shape. He called into the room but got no response and initially thought he was looking at a mannequin.

He turned right, went up two steps into a corridor and turned left down a corridor. “We turned to our right and I stood in a doorway looking into Room One.” He moved closer and realised it was her hair. It was stuck to her face as if she had been “thrashing” it around. It is the prosecution case that Boy B lured Ana from her home at 5pm on May 14th, 2018 on the pretence of meeting Boy A, who Ana was “interested” in. Boy A then allegedly violently sexually assaulted and murdered her in the derelict farmhouse as Boy B watched.

The jury heard investigators examined CCTV footage from around the park and its entrances but could find no one who matched the descriptions of the attackers given by the boy.
