Jail for man into drug dealing 'in pretty serious way'

Summary

Patryk Kazimianiec, 40, was found with €43,390 worth of drugs and €33,265 in cash in his Dublin home. Gardaí seized cannabis, amphetamines and MDMA tablets during a search authorised by a warrant. He pleaded guilty to possession for sale or supply and money laundering on 22 June 2021. Judge Martin Nolan, noting Kazimianiec's intent to sell and the profit indicated by the cash, described him as "into drug dealing in a pretty serious way" and sentenced him to four and a half years' imprisonment. The judge highlighted Kazimianiec's remorse letter and his wife's supportive letter, and noted his good character and family devotion, but concluded that owning and dealing the drugs warranted a harsher sentence than mere transport. The case was heard in the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
