State of Tennessee v. Erin Lea Gentry

Case Number
M2015-02183-CCA-R3-CD

Defendant, Erin Lea Gentry, pled guilty to aggravated statutory rape and reserved a certified question for appeal pursuant to Tennessee Rule of Criminal Procedure 37(b)(2)(A) in which she asked this Court to determine whether the initial search warrant which led to the discovery of evidence supporting the indictment was overly broad; whether the affidavit supported a finding of probable cause to search specific items; and whether the officers exceeded the scope of the warrant.  After a review, we determine that the motion to suppress was properly denied, and thus we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
