• Man not convicted of possession of drugs in Kilbeggan Possession of drugs · Co. Offaly

  Luke Garland, a 26-year-old man from Mooretown, Celbridge, Kildare, was stopped by a Garda on the M6 near Kilbeggan and found with illegal drugs worth €120 for his own use. He pleaded guilty at Tullamore District Court in late March 2022. Judge John Brennan declined to convict the first-time offender, who has a degree in marine biology and was returning from Germany for the hearing. The judge ordered a €300 charitable donation and attendance at an online drug awareness course, with the case to be struck out on 20 April 2022 if conditions are met.
