Attorney Brent Horst practices from 1201 South Graycroft, Nashville, TN 37115, providing dedicated defense against felony drug possession charges. With over 25 years of experience and board certification in criminal law, this former prosecutor defends clients against Tennessee’s serious controlled dangerous substance laws. In Tennessee, possessing controlled substances with manufacturing or distribution intent constitutes a felony under Tenn. Code Ann. 39-17-417(a)(4), with possession extending beyond bodily contact to nearby areas—even passengers in vehicles containing drugs face charges. The state organizes controlled substances by schedules, from Schedule I (highest risk with no medical use) through Schedule VII. Penalties vary dramatically by substance type and quantity, ranging from Class E felonies with 1-6 year sentences and $5,000 fines to Class A felonies carrying 15-60 year terms and $500,000 fines. Punishment increases for repeat offenders and cases in drug-free school zones. Horst’s defense strategies include challenging evidence sufficiency and investigating police conduct to contest evidence admissibility at trial.
