'Cog in a wheel of destruction and death': Cocaine courier caught with tub of drugs in car

the judge said: "This drug culture relies on people like you to carry out certain roles. Without people like you it does not work."

A cocaine courier was caught with a tub containing €8,500 worth of the drug in his car as he sped past a garda speed camera in Mitchelstown at 150 kilometres per hour.

Keith Horan of Ballycullen Cottages, Firhouse, Dublin, has pleaded guilty to a charge of having the cocaine for sale or supply.
