24-year-old Tristen Nathaniel Little is now jailed on an outstanding warrant from September of 2021, charging him with felony auto theft. The warrant states his grandmother, Teresa Hunter, allowed him to stay with her for a few days, and while she was sleeping, he took the keys to her car and her iPhone. A few days after the theft, he contacted his grandmother to say the vehicle had now been impounded by the Dickson County Sheriff’s Office.

Public Defender Kevin Coker says news coverage of his client violates the Constitution, he’ll have it taken down.
