Brendan O'Meara

Brendan O'Meara, a former Ryanair pilot, was recently charged with possession of over €10 million worth of cannabis, with allegations of international criminal connections. At 62, he was refused bail due to concerns he might flee Ireland, especially as he had plans to relocate to the United States to care for his ailing brother. He has been remanded in custody and faces serious charges that could result in a lengthy prison sentence if convicted.
