State of Tennessee v. Jerome Andre McClinton

Defendant, Jerome Andre McClinton, pled guilty to one count of sale of more than 0.5 grams of methamphetamine.  Pursuant to his plea agreement, the manner of service of his ten-year sentence was to be determined by the trial court.  Following a sentencing hearing, the trial court ordered the sentence to be served in confinement.  On appeal, Defendant contends that the trial court abused its discretion by ordering him to serve his sentence without considering his amenability to correction or potential for rehabilitation.  Following a thorough review, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
