A FAMILY man who was caught storing significant quantities of drugs and cash at his home has been jailed for two years.
Patrick Byrnes, 40, who has an address at Woodpark, Castleconnell had pleaded guilty to drugs and money laundering charges relating to two seizures which were made just six months apart.
During a sentencing hearing last year, Detective Garda Declan O’Halloran of the divisional drugs unit told Limerick Circuit Court nearly 3kgs of cannabis was found hidden in a tyre in a shed at the rented property on June 9, 2018.
