Could be Oregano?

Ahh special brownies....nom nom

Huexotzingo · 03-09-2018 5:30pm

He's not the worst in the family....

Signore Fancy Pants · 03-09-2018 5:30pm

A family of fake posh accents, kiddy fiddling and now drugs.

Stop buying Ballymaloe stuff!

SEPT 23 1989 · 03-09-2018 5:30pm

You wouldn't want that family living next door to you

DEFTLEFTHAND · 03-09-2018 5:31pm

What a muppet.

Hopefully no special treatment is doled out here. This is very serious.

evolving_doors · 03-09-2018 5:32pm

Just a young idiot.
Where did he get the money for 30k worth though (presume that 30k is gardaí estimate for gross profit)?

Beechwoodspark · 03-09-2018 5:33pm

Sh1ts gonna get real for Joshua when granny darina gets home from electric picnic on an epic comedown

Huexotzingo · 03-09-2018 5:33pm

The media are going to really relish this story.

JMNolan · 03-09-2018 5:33pm

I feel for her to be honest. I've a child that age and even though they are adults in the eyes of the law you don't seem them that way, you see them as kids. It's tough then when you can't do much to help your child in that situation.

I know people and they managed to buy a similar amount of drugs online and it was similar to this with the suspicious parcel being delivered when they got caught out. They'd also have had no real source of income.

Chancer3001 · 03-09-2018 5:35pm

Thought this was gonna be the "other" son.

Weird how it's another lad.

Trasna1 · 03-09-2018 5:37pm

Must have been a sizeable parcel, but I doubt it was worth €30k. That's somewhere between 2.5 and 5kg of product.

Agreed. It's no reflection on her personally, the statement says just about all you can say in that situation.

joshua? the least sounding drug dealer name iv ever head. he must have thought he was 21 savage or something, the clown, like he needed to sell drugs.

Fr_Dougal · 03-09-2018 5:39pm

€30k as a *first shipment*? Sure it was...

I often wonder what street it is you're buying your cocaine on, because it's not the same street as I'm buying my cocaine on.

Sorry, but the relish is soooo good. I've made my choice and I'm comfortable with it.

seamus · 03-09-2018 5:42pm

Janey mack, WTF is wrong with that family? Grandad done for child porn, grandson arrested dealing drugs.

And those O'Briens radio ads. Just an assault on the ears.

lazygal · 03-09-2018 5:44pm

My boycott of the Allen family continues. What a clan.

Trasna1 · 03-09-2018 5:46pm

Importing drugs through the post is incredibly risky though - 100% dependent on other person to pack it properly and cleanly and conceal or there is a non trivial risk it will be picked up.

And if it's picked up, they literally have your name and address.

Drug fuelled kiddy fiddling 18th birthday party. What's the big deal?:o

so a member of anyone's family does something illegal

the whole lot of them are marked for a boycott?

"Not my brothers keeper" is a phrase you should maybe think about

legalize and take the profits out of the hands of the Allen organization.

Legalise ballymoe relish?

Look they may be a white collar food crime family but they are our white collar food crime family. And the relish is good.

Padlock isn't on the bench this time around to hand out community service along with a charitable donation.

Judge Brian Sheridan is the judge for that area according to the courts service website, from googling him he takes no sh1t, but then again we are dealing with celebrities here.

Roger Hassenforder · 03-09-2018 6:00pm

Ballymaloe is a gateway relish, you start of with a bit on a cracker& cheese
Before you know it you're spooning jalapeno chutney direct from the fridge at 3am.
