A JUDGE has said a former Fianna Fail TD has had "a significant fall from grace", after he pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of cocaine.

Colm Keaveney pleaded guilty at Tuam District Court yesterday to the charge, along with two counts of driving with no insurance.

The 54-year-old was arrested after being stopped at a checkpoint at Cummer near Tuam on June 12, 2023. Sgt Christy Browne told the court that Keaveney failed a roadside drug test and was arrested and brought to Tuam Garda Station, where a blood sample tested positive for cocaine.

The court was told that on July 25 last year at Vicar Street, Tuam, Garda Michelle Hanlon stopped Keaveney for failing to produce a certificate of insurance on demand.
