State of Tennessee v. Derrick Brandon Wells

Case Number
M2008-00428-CCA-R3-CD

A jury convicted the Defendant, Derrick Brandon Wells, of both the sale and delivery of over .5 grams of a Schedule II controlled substance, crack-cocaine. The trial court merged the convictions and sentenced the Defendant as a Range II, multiple offender to twenty years and fined the Defendant $75,000. The Defendant appeals, contending the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction of the sale of crack-cocaine. After reviewing the record and relevant authorities, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
