If convicted, the penalties are the most severe under state and federal laws. A conviction for some violent crimes can result in the death penalty in Tennessee.

It is vital that people accused of a violent crime obtain the representation of a seasoned Tennessee criminal defense attorney who understands how to take a case before a jury.
