Chancellor Robert E. Corlew, III presided over Cannon County Circuit Court on Thursday. Some of the results from the various cases which appeared on the docket included:

Crystal McMahon pled guilty to the charges of failure to appear and 2 counts of TennCare fraud. She was sentenced to 3 years in prison as a standard 30 percent offender. That sentence was suspended upon an equal amount of time on probation, paying the court costs and obtaining a drug and alcohol evaluation. She was also ordered to pay restitution.

McMahon made one court appearance in February 2009 to answer to the TennCare fraud charges. She later fled the state and was found to be residing in Florida. McMahon was given a number of court dates but failed to appear at any of them. In November, a bench warrant was issued for her arrest and she was found living in Florida.

She was charged in January of 2009r with four counts of fraudulently obtaining prescription anti-depressants by “doctor shopping.” McMahon received a prescription for the anti-depressant Alprazolam, also known as Xanax, and was also accused of failing to tell her doctor that she had seen another physician within a 30-day period and received prescriptions for the same or similar medication. McMahon used TennCare to pay for the provider visits.
