€200k cannabis find after gardai pulled over motorist for driving in bus lane
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Passing sentence today, Judge Martin Nolan said certain parties had taken advantage of Philpott's gambling debt to traffic these drugs. He set a headline sentence of six years imprisonment, but said as there was very good mitigation, he would cut that in two and imposed a sentence of three years imprisonment.
