You were arrested by David Wilson, an officer in Amherst County whose cases follow a notably different pattern than most of Virginia. Wilson's cases result in conviction 94.5% of the time, with only a 3.6% dismissal rate—dramatically lower than the statewide average of 34.7%. This means cases from his arrests move forward to conviction far more often than you'd see elsewhere in Virginia. Wilson ranks in the bottom 1.4 percentile statewide for dismissals, suggesting his charging practices or the cases he brings are unusually solid from a prosecution standpoint.
The vast majority of Wilson's cases—nearly 2,918 out of 2,962—fall under "Other" charges, which prevents a detailed breakdown of how specific charge types perform. Within that large category, the 3.6% dismissal rate holds steady. The small subset of Driving Suspended charges (44 cases) shows a marginally higher 4.7% dismissal rate, though still far below statewide norms. Without knowing your specific charge, it's difficult to pinpoint exactly where your case sits, but the overall pattern suggests Wilson's arrests proceed to conviction at unusually high rates across charge categories.
