Gentry Plea Hearing Today In Federal Court

Jeff Gentry will enter a plea in his federal criminal case today.

The U.S. Attorney’s office in Nashville said a plea hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. today, with a press conference scheduled after.

The former Sparta businessman faces charges of wire fraud and money laundering. Civil suits filed against Gentry and his wife, Wendy, state they were running a Ponzi-type scheme in which they defrauded investors.

Until last December, Jeff and Wendy Gentry ran Gentry Bros. Tractor Supply in Sparta.
