Man who possessed cannabis jailed for seven years
A cocaine-addicted father who was caught with almost €140,000 in cannabis resin has been given a seven-year sentence by Judge Katherine Delahunt at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
Peter O’Connell (aged 37) of Decies Road, Ballyfermot, told gardaí: "I think you know what it is," when he was caught holding a bar of cannabis next to his brother’s van that he had been driving.
