Tennessee Charges & Citations for NexusMDT
A Tennessee accurate charge and citation database for NexusMDT, built entirely on real Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) statutes and verified current to 2026. Designed for believable, Tennessee flavored police roleplay and written so players who aren't real cops can still pick the right charge for the situation. Now with a Game Warden / Park Ranger set and a full Federal section for FBI-style units.
What's included:
- 236 charges (152 felony / 84 misdemeanor) — DUI, drugs, theft, assault, domestic, weapons, evading/resisting, burglary, robbery, plus the serious felonies that pursuits and shootouts produce.
- 98 citations — traffic, equipment, registration, licensing and wildlife violations with realistic Tennessee fine amounts, including a clean three-tier speeding ladder (1-14, 15-24, 25+ over).
- A Game Warden / Park Ranger set built on real TCA Title 70 wildlife and Title 69 boating statutes — poaching, big game in closed season, road hunting, license checks, reckless vessel/jet ski operation — each with its verified offense class.
- A Federal section (27 charges) for FBI, ATF, DEA, US Marshals and Secret Service roleplay — bank robbery, UFAP, 922(g), 924(c), drug trafficking, counterfeiting, aircraft piracy and more, all citing the real United States Code. Every federal entry is prefixed "Federal -" so typing Federal in the MDT search pulls up the whole list.
- A scenario guide that maps common calls (traffic stop, fleeing suspect, drugs found, fight, shooting, robbery vs. burglary, backcountry warden calls, federal task force work) to the exact charge and the keyword to search in the MDT.
- A README with install steps and accuracy notes.
How you know which one to use:
NexusMDT displays and searches the name of each entry, so the decision info is built right into the names — dollar ranges on theft/vandalism, drug schedules with the common drugs listed, on-foot vs. in-vehicle for evading, and the class suffix (FA–FE felony, MA/MB/MC misdemeanor, FF/FM federal felony/misdemeanor). Search a keyword and pick. The scenario guide covers the rest.
Includes recent Tennessee changes like drag racing now being a Class E felony (TCA 55-10-502), fentanyl folded into the Schedule II felony tiers, Organized Retail Crime (TCA 39-14-113), accurate handling of the catalytic-converter possession law (still a Class A misdemeanor under TCA 62-9-115), the 2021 burglary recodification (TCA 39-13-1002 through 1004), the 2024 felony upgrade for threats of mass violence at a school (TCA 39-16-517), and the mail theft statute (TCA 39-14-129). Wildlife offense classes are verified per statute, not guessed.

Updated description and new files.
What's New in Version 2.0.0
Released
v1.4 — Drug charges update
Thanks to TRUGAMING24 for the nudge on this one. Tennessee charges drug
sale/manufacture by controlled-substance schedule rather than by individual
drug, so heroin, cocaine and fentanyl were already in the pack inside the
Schedule I/II entries (with the drug names written in) but the possession
side wasn't searchable by street name, and TN treats a few drugs differently
enough to deserve their own charges. Fixed both.
NEW — Drug charges (3), all verified against the current TCA:
- Second Degree Murder – Unlawful Drug Delivery Resulting in Death (Class A
felony, TCA 39-13-210(a)(2)-(3)) — Tennessee's fentanyl/overdose homicide
law, for when a dealer's product is the proximate cause of a user's death.
- Simple Possession of Heroin – Third or Subsequent Offense (Class E felony,
TCA 39-17-418(e)) — possession is normally a misdemeanor, but a third heroin
conviction is a felony.
- Simple Possession of Methamphetamine – Any Amount (Class A misdemeanor,
mandatory 30-day minimum, TCA 39-17-418(c)(2)) — meth is the one drug TN
attaches a mandatory minimum to.
IMPROVED — Drug-name searchability:
- The general simple-possession entry now lists the common hard drugs by name
(Heroin, Cocaine, Fentanyl, Oxy…), so typing a street name in the MDT finds
the possession charge, not just the sale charge.
On warrants (common question):
What it gives you are the charges to file when someone comes
back wanted: Failure to Appear (felony + misdemeanor), Escape from Custody, and
the Evading charges.
Totals now: 239 charges (154 felony / 85 misdemeanor), 98 citations. README and
SCENARIO_GUIDE updated. As always, every addition was checked against the
current Tennessee Code Annotated before it went in.
