Former garda pleads guilty to theft

A former garda faces up to 10 years in prison for stealing thousands of euro from his colleagues and an 82-year-old woman.
David Foran (aged 29) responded to a burglary at the elderly woman’s home and found she had hidden nearly €2,000 in her bedroom. He later returned to steal the cash. He also collected money from his garda colleagues to organise events which he then used to pay his own debts.
