Father-of-three gets ten years for storing drugs

A father-of-three who was forced to pay off his drug debt by storing drugs in the family home has been given a ten-year jail sentence by Judge Desmond Hogan at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Ian Darcy (aged 24) of Oakrise, Clondalkin, who earned €700 a week as a tiler, was forced to store the drugs and deliver them by a violent dealer who refused to accept cash repayment.
