Ana Kriegel verdict: A 'vulnerable, innocent' girl who just wanted a friend

Geraldine Kriegel described their daughter as ‘very immature, a child on the inside’.

Ana Kriegel met her cruel and brutal death at the hands of bullies who had capitalised on her vulnerability. However, it was far from the first time she had been exploited by her peers.

In her evidence to the Central Criminal Court, Ana’s mother Geraldine described the bullying her "vulnerable" daughter had endured from others in the months before her death.
