Girl accused of school stabbings carried blade from age of eight

But the girl, who was 13 at the time, insisted she did not want to kill anyone and "would give anything to go back".

The pupil, now 14, denied attempting to murder teachers Fiona Elias and Liz Hopkin and the fellow student when she stabbed them with a fishing tool blade at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman school in Ammanford, Carmarthen-shire, on April 24.

Launching her defence case at Swansea Crown Court, she told her barrister Caroline Rees KC how she felt "terrible" about what had happened whilst she was feeling "grumpy" after starting her period.
