If you were arrested by Officer Gross in Norfolk, you're looking at unusually favorable odds compared to most Virginia arrests. This officer's cases are dismissed 80.8% of the time—more than double the statewide average of 34.7%. That 46-point gap puts this officer in the 94th percentile for dismissal rates across Virginia, meaning very few officers have higher dismissal rates. This pattern suggests either the charges brought are often weak or procedurally flawed, or cases routinely lack sufficient evidence to proceed to conviction.

Larceny and theft charges also dismiss at 89.2%, well above average. Grand larceny cases are tougher, with a 50% dismissal rate. The "Other" category—which includes 88 cases—dismisses at 65.5%. Where your charge falls within this breakdown matters significantly for what typically happens next in Norfolk court.
