The man accused of the murder of Detective Garda Adrian Donohoe was warned by gardaí and a judge that if he failed to mention any fact he would later use in his defence it could be used against him in court, the Central Criminal Court heard today.

The man accused of the murder of Detective Garda Adrian Donohoe was warned by gardaí and a judge that if he failed to mention any fact he would later use in his defence it could be used against him in court, the Central Criminal Court heard today.
Aaron Brady accepted that he was first told this by gardaí when he was arrested and questioned by gardaí on suspicion of murder.
He also accepted that after he had been charged a judge warned him in July 2018 he had 14 days to provide an alibi.
He subsequently claimed he was involved in diesel laundering at the time of the murder.
The court heard today that 14 months later the State was informed that Aaron Brady was submitting a late notice of alibi “outside the statutory period”.
Senior Counsel Brendan Grehan said today it was “one line”,  that “at the time of the commission of the offence the accused was at 155 Concession Road in Armagh.”  
The location is a diesel laundering yard in Co Armagh.
Mr Grehan also said a statement from Aaron Brady was served on the prosectuion on 17 February of this year while the trial was already for three weeks.
Mr Brady admitted in it he had previously lied to gardaí in a voluntary statement he made to them a week after the murder.
In the new statement he said he was loading diesel waste cubes into a trailer in the yard on the night and at the time the detective was murdered.
He said he “was reluctant to account for my movements on the record out of fear I might be prosecuted.”
He accepted however that gardaí had previously told him they were investigating a murder and had no interest in diesel laundering in south Armagh.
Mr Brady also said today he was unhappy with the garda investigation into the murder and complained that they did not investigate the yard in south Armagh.
He insisted the getaway car used in the robbery and murder had not been there and said if gardaí had looked in the yard for tyre tracks for that car they would not have found any.
“I believe they should have checked 155 Concession Road for tyre tracks,” he said.
Mr Grehan pointed out to him that the yard was muddy, it had been raining heavily, tyre tracks were unlikely to be found after a couple of days and the yard was in a different jurisdiction, Northern Ireland, where gardaí had no powers.
Aaron Brady also sent a text to his girlfriend the day after Detective Garda Adrian Donohoe was shot dead was “a plea” to her to go to the cinema with him.
The text was shown to the court.
Aaron Brady was today shown a text he sent to the 17-year-old in which he states “please Jess, I just want to get away till all this blows over.”
He sent the text to her after the PSNI had called to her home.
“Please Jess I just want to get away till this blows over ill prob just go into them tomorrow everything will be ok. tel them its fine i just wanna go and get something to eat away from here and go to the cinema. am jus tpissed off please”.
Mr Brady told the court they did not go to the cinema that night but he thinks he went out to his girlfriend’s house later.
He said they went to the cinema and “Pizza Hut” the following night.
Mr Justice Michael White said he expects Mr Brady’s evidence to finish today.
