7 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Smith · State v. Stokes“"This is the sentence which [the defendant] could be sentenced to, as much as twelve years at hard labor. The court at this time, because of the man's previous problems with drugs and because of the seriousness of this crime and because the court believes if he were released on probation that he would involve himself in other criminal activity and because any lesser sentence would deprecate the seriousness of the crime. The court hereby sentences the defendant... to serve at hard labor for a term of three years."”
