State of Tennessee v. Jesse R. Scruggs

The defendant was convicted of DUI and driving in violation of a Habitual Traffic Offender Order. Based upon our review of the record, we conclude that there is sufficient evidence corroborating the defendant's statement that he was driving. Furthermore, the trial court is presumed to have fulfilled its role as thirteenth juror when, as in the instant case, the trial court overrules a defendant's motion for new trial without comment. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed
