Caroline Brennan, the Co Kilkenny teenager on trial at the Central Criminal Court in Waterford charged with murdering her brother, will give evidence today.
Ms Brennan (19), told gardaí that she had “put the knife in” her brother Michael Brennan in December 2008. He had always been “at” her when they were growing up, the court last week heard.
The accused, of Love Lane in Castlecomer, Co Kilkenny, denies the murder of her brother during a party in their uncle’s house at Barrack Street in the town shortly after 3am on December 30th, 2008.
Mr Brennan (22), received a single stab wound to the heart at the house on the date in question. The trial, before Mr Justice Paul Carney and a jury, continues today.
