Syllabus

Defendant's statement that she was not \actually trafficking\ after pleading guilty to aggravated trafficking was not grounds to invalidate her plea and sentence where (1) she and her attorney affirmed on the record she understood the charges against her, (2) she was apprehended with 21 times the bulk amount of methamphetamine, plastic baggies, a digital scale, and over $2,000, and (3) her statement served to mitigate the seriousness of her actions for sentencing purposes. R.C. 2925.03 criminalizes both the sale of methamphetamine and the preparation of it for sale.
