Rebecca England sentenced to two years with 150 days for DUI fourth offense

The Dickson Criminal Docket meeting held on May 21, 2025, addressed several significant cases, including a plea agreement for Rebecca Louise England and updates on other defendants.

The meeting commenced with the court addressing Rebecca England, who entered a no contest plea to a DUI charge, classified as a Class E felony. The court sentenced her to two years, with 150 days to serve in custody. The remaining time will be suspended, contingent upon her compliance with supervised probation. Key conditions of her probation include a $3,000 fine, an eight-year loss of her driver's license, and mandatory completion of a Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) impact panel or DUI school. Additionally, an ignition interlock device will be required for any future driving privileges, and she must report to probation in person.

The court confirmed that England understood her rights, including the implications of waiving her right to a trial and the potential consequences of her plea. The judge emphasized that this conviction would affect any future sentencing should she face additional charges.

Following England's case, the court addressed another defendant, who had been in custody and was unable to hire a lawyer. The judge appointed a public defender to represent her in a case involving aggravated assault and domestic violence. A status hearing was scheduled for September 22, 2025, to determine the next steps in her case.

The meeting concluded with discussions regarding Randy Allen Horstman Jr., who sought to amend his judgment to regain driving privileges after serving time for vehicular assault by intoxication. The judge clarified that his license suspension was part of the original sentencing conditions, which included completing treatment programs and attending a victim impact panel.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the court's ongoing efforts to manage cases involving serious offenses while ensuring defendants understand their rights and the consequences of their actions. The next steps for the cases discussed will be monitored in upcoming court sessions.
