State of Tennessee v. Thomas Antonio Ricketts

Syllabus

The Defendant, Thomas Antonio Ricketts, entered guilty pleas in the Davidson County Criminal Court to two counts of facilitation of aggravated child abuse and one count of facilitation of aggravated child neglect. The trial court imposed concurrent ten-year sentences for each count, to be served in confinement. On appeal, the Defendant argues that his sentence was excessive and that the trial court erred in denying an alternative sentence. Upon review, we affirm the judgments of the trial court.
