"Something you wilfully deprived Ana Kriégel of." 'Sadness written all over their faces'
by Shane Harrison, Ireland correspondent, at the court
Because of the sensitivity of the trial, and the age of the boys, only five journalists were allowed at the in-camera trial.
The rest of us sat in Court 13 of the Courts of Criminal Justice building, watching proceedings on a video link.
The camera concentrated on the judge, occasionally turning to the lawyers.
Of the boys, their families and the Kriégel family, there was no sight.
But they were in court.
Once Mr Justice Paul McDermott gave his sentence, some of the two boys' families nodded at waiting reporters, with sadness written all over their faces.
It was nothing, though, compared to the grief and sadness of the Kriégel family who now, in the words of the judge, face their own life sentence.
