Description
Appellant, Robert Holloman, presents this appeal as of right from two convictions for possession of cocaine with intent to sell or deliver. Appellant also challenges the two concurrent seven-year sentences imposed by the trial court. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment of the lower court in all respects. The criminal charges levied against appellant arise from events taking place during an undercover drug investigation performed by the Tennessee Highway Patrol. Troopers Aaron Chism and Wayne Vasser set up an investigation in Humboldt, Tennessee, in an area known as the Crossing. As a means of disguise, the officers were selling watermelons out of a pickup truck. These men testified that while at the Crossing, they were approached by appellant's co-defendant, Moses Gaines. The subject of cocaine arose among these three men, and Gaines informed the undercover officers that he could obtain some cocaine. Chism and Vasser each gave two hundred and sixty dollars to Gaines for purposes of purchasing cocaine on their behalf. Approximately two hours and fifteen minutes later, Gaines returned with appellant who identified himself as "Shug." After the introductions, appellant delivered a package of cocaine to each of the men. At least part of this transaction was captured on video tape.
