A man caught getting off a train from Dublin to Mallow with a stash of drugs tried the exact same crime a month later – and he was caught again.

That was back in February and March 2018. Now at Cork Circuit Criminal Court Damien Higgins of Canon Sheehan Place, Mallow, has been jailed for 18 months.
