The trial judge's 24-year aggregate starting point for the mixed cocaine/ketamine quantity was manifestly excessive; a 21-year starting point was appropriate for the combined quantities, and applying the one-third reduction for the guilty plea results in a substituted sentence of 14 years imprisonment; the applicant's contention of lack of knowledge of nature/quantity has no merit.
