Brendan McDermott and his former girlfriend appeared at Letterkenny Circuit Court in Co Donegal after Gardai swooped on their home and found €4,450 worth of ecstasy tablets

Detective Garda Jason Conroy told the court that as well as the drugs, they also found weighing scales and zip-lock bags in the house at Donagh Park, Carndonagh March 17, 2021.McDermott, 38, had pleaded guilty to possession of the drugs for sale and supply while Danielle McDaid, 37, admitted being in possession of the drugs.

The court was told that when McDaid was being questioned by Gardai she said "This is the part where I'm supposed to say nothing." Barrister for McDermott, Mr Peter Nolan, stressed that no money had been found at the property and that his client had only commenced selling the drugs to mates. Barrister for McDaid, Mr Ciaran O'Rourke, said his client is not involved in drugs, does not take them and had cooperated fully with Gardai.

Passing sentence on McDermott, Judge Aylmer said the offence was a serious one albeit on the lower end of the scale saying he foolishly decided to supplement his income by selling a few tablets for a fraction of their value.In mitigation, he said McDermott has cooperated fully, was remorseful and that this will have been a considerable fright for him and that he now realises his stupidity.
