Because the appellant did not have the benefit of knowing or answering prejudicial facts, was absent during the co-accused's trial, and his guilty plea and the limited nature and remoteness of the prior dealing conviction were not properly weighed, the sentence on the first count was unsafe; on rehearing the appropriate sentence for the first count is reduced to three years and the existing sentence on the second count is left unchanged to run concurrently.
