Ballymun drug addict gets three-year sentence for burglary

A Ballymun drug addict described as having "little victim empathy" has been jailed for three years for burglary and handling stolen goods.

Judge Frank O’Donnell in Dublin Circuit Criminal Court said he refused to believe Paul Hussy’s claims to gardaí that he was drug free saying: "I’m sitting watching you here today and you’re on drugs now if you ever were on drugs."
