A man has pleaded guilty to facilitating the murder of 17-year-old Keane Mulready-Woods.
Gerard Cruise, of Lower Sherrard Street, Dublin 1, was originally charged with murdering the teenager.
In court this morning, he pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of facilitating the murder.
Keane Mulready-Woods was murdered on January 12th or 13th 2020.
He was dismembered and his remains were found in various locations in Dublin and near the house where he was killed in Drogheda, Co Louth.
Gerard Cruise was one of two men charged with his murder and this morning, he was also charged with facilitating the 17-year-old’s murder.
His co-accused, 27-year-old Paul Crosby of Rathmullen Park, Drogheda, pleaded guilty to the same charge last year.
Their sentence hearing will take place later this month.
The judges were told the existing charges will also be dealt with at that hearing and Keane’s family will be given an opportunity to address the court if they so wish.
