You were arrested by Officer Graves in Virginia Beach, which operates as an independent city with its own court system separate from surrounding counties. Looking at his overall track record across 210 cases, you're facing a dismissal rate of 38.8 percent—slightly better than Virginia's statewide average of 34.7 percent. His conviction rate of 60.7 percent means most cases result in guilty verdicts, though the dismissal rate suggests a meaningful portion of arrests don't hold up in court. Officer Graves ranks at the 55th percentile among his peers, meaning his case outcomes fall roughly in the middle range.
Your specific outcome depends heavily on what you were charged with. If you were arrested for weapons offenses, you're in a category with a much higher dismissal rate of 63.6 percent across 19 cases. However, if you were charged with DUI/DWI, dismissals are rare at just 5 percent from 21 cases—those charges tend to stick. Driving Suspended charges show a 14.3 percent dismissal rate. The largest category of arrests (146 cases) falls under "Other" charges, which have a 43.2 percent dismissal rate. Your charge type matters significantly to what typically happens next.
