*427URBIGKIT, Justice,
dissenting.
I dissent for the reasons stated in Hennigan v. State, Wyo., 746 P.2d 360 (1987), and do not find the guilty plea in this case to have abrogated constitutional rights there discussed in detail.
Additionally, in comparison with all of the Campbell County grand jury cases, the totality of the consecutive sentences decreed for Donald Sword appear punitive if not petulant, and particularly so as compared with the results for the major suppliers as clearly defined in grand jury testimony. The monetary fine provided in conjunction with the confinement sentence is senseless in economics, and the attorney’s fee repayment requirement is clearly illegal according to then-existing law and required assessment procedures.
I would reverse in order to afford a right for a preliminary hearing and the right to elect to have a trial on the merits.
