State of Tennessee v. Alysha J. Barr

Syllabus

The Appellant, Alysha J. Barr, was convicted of vehicular assault, driving under the influence (\DUI\), and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon. On appeal, she argues that the trial court erred by denying her motion to suppress evidence resulting from a blood draw at the scene of the collision because: (1) it was obtained pursuant to an unconstitutional search and (2) she did not sign the waiver form as statutorily required at the time of the offense. Tenn. Code Ann. § 55-10-406 (2017) (amended 2019). She also argues that the trial court erred by admitting expert testimony based on an untrustworthy experiment. After review, we conclude that no reversible error occurred and affirm the trial court's judgments.
