A witness in the trial of a woman accused of murdering a man in Co Donegal has told the jury her clothes were covered in blood when he met her that night.
Nikita Burns, of Carrick, Co Donegal is on trial for the murder of Robert Wilkin; alongside her co-accused, Alan Vial of Drumanoo, Killybegs.
On the night of the 25th of June 2023, Gavin Mitchell told the jury that Nikita Burns called over to the apartment he was staying in in Letterkenny.
She used to live there too.
Mr Mitchell described her as being, “very anxious, scared looking, shocked and upset.”
He told the jury she told him she had killed somebody; that she had battered his face in with a stone.
He said she told him she was with some boy called Alan, who broke the man’s nose after he sexually assaulted her in a car.
Mr Mitchell said she told him they threw him off a cliff.
He said there was blood all over the bottom of her leggings, so he gave her a chance of clothes.
Under cross-examination, he said he didn’t believe her initially because he believed she had taken drugs and was wired.
