'Ordinary hard-working man' who moved €3.9m in cannabis is jailed for eight years
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: She also noted that he had made an immediate admission in the van, however, she said that there were significant aggravating factors. "Clearly, he was trusted to store huge amounts of drugs, which he was transporting around the city," she said. "His active involvement can't be overlooked." She imposed concurrent sentences of nine years on each count and suspended the final 12 months. The sentence was backdated to when McCormack went into custody in October 2023.
