Woman who hid heroin in bra gets five and a half years

A mother of four who hid a €24,000 stash of heroin in her bra and was then arrested for two further drugs offences while on bail has been given five and a half years in consecutive sentences.

Susan Devine (aged 37) was caught with heroin for sale or supply near the Merchants Quay treatment centre while on bail for hiding the drugs in her bra for her brother and was arrested the following year for allowing her home to be used to store drugs.
