State of Tennessee v. Corrie Johnson

The defendant was convicted by a Hardin County jury of driving under the influence (DUI), possession of marijuana, and possession with the intent to sell or deliver 0.5 grams or more of cocaine. The trial court sentenced the defendant to two 11 month and 29 day sentences for the DUI and possession of marijuana convictions, suspended after serving 30 days in jail. The trial court sentenced the defendant to 9 years incarceration, as a Range I standard offender, for possession with intent to sell or deliver 0.5 grams or more of cocaine. All sentences were to be served concurrently. In this appeal as a matter of right, the defendant alleges the trial court erred by denying (1) his motion to suppress evidence discovered as a result of the vehicle stop and (2) his request for alternative sentencing. After a thorough review of the record, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
