A Dublin milkman who turned to drug dealing when he got into debt received a suspended prison sentence yesterday. Paul Brown (28) of Millbrook Road, Kilbarrack pleaded guilty at Dublin District Court to having 150 ecstasy tablets and five grammes of cocaine for supply on September 28th 1996.
Garda Joe Kealy said Brown handed himself in after the drugs were found in a search at his home and he had got involved in drug dealing because he owed money.
Judge J.P. McDonnell imposed a 12-month prison sentence suspended for a year after considering a probation report.
