He was sentenced to five years imprisonment on each count with the sentences to run concurrently.
The defense was unlawful entrapment. Appellant contends that the court erred in its charge on entrapment. Assuming arguendo that the evidence warranted a charge on entrapment, we hold that there was no error in the charge.
