State of Tennessee v. Dana Kennedy Walls

Case Number
M2009-00736-CCA-R3-CD

Defendant-Appellant, Dana Kennedy Walls, was convicted by a Warren County Circuit Court jury of facilitation of initiating a process to manufacture methamphetamine in count one, a Class C felony; facilitation of promoting the manufacture of methamphetamine in count two, a Class E felony; and promoting the manufacture of methamphetamine in count three, a Class D felony. She was sentenced as a Range I, standard offender to serve concurrent sentences of five years with service of 365 days in confinement for count one, two years with service of 90 days in confinement for count two, and three years with service of 250 days in confinement for count three, for an effective sentence of five years with 365 days in confinement prior to serving the remainder of her sentence on probation. On appeal, Dana Walls argues: (1) the evidence was insufficient to support her convictions, (2) the trial court committed reversible error in failing to instruct the jury on the lesser included offense of attempt for each of the charged offenses, and (3) her sentence is excessive. Following our review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
