State of Tennessee v. Lori Anne Pierce

Syllabus

A Bradley County jury found Defendant, Lori Anne Pierce, guilty of possession of methamphetamine with the intent to sell or deliver, a Class B felony (Count 1) possession of alprazolam with the intent to sell or deliver, a Class D felony (Count 2) possession of clonazepam with the intent to sell or deliver, a Class D felony (Count 3) and attempted unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia with intent to deliver, a Class A misdemeanor (Count 4). On appeal, Defendant challenges whether the evidence was sufficient to prove that she constructively possessed the contraband on all four counts. Defendant also challenges whether the evidence was sufficient to prove intent to sell or deliver on all counts. After review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court but remand for correction of the judgment forms to indicate Defendant's proper offender status and release eligibility.
