I L Martin

You were arrested by Officer I L Martin in Fairfax County, and the data shows an unusual pattern in how cases end up. Officer Martin's cases are dismissed at a rate of 79.9 percent, which is drastically higher than Virginia's statewide average of 34.7 percent. This places Martin in the 93.8th percentile for dismissal rates among officers—meaning very few officers have dismissal rates this high. The 20.1 percent conviction rate is correspondingly low. This dramatic gap suggests that either the cases Officer Martin makes are weaker than typical, or there are systemic issues with how the arrests are conducted or documented that lead courts to dismiss them.

Looking at what Officer Martin arrests people for, theft-related charges dominate the record: 96 larceny cases and 5 grand larceny cases make up the majority of the 184 total arrests. Larceny cases are dismissed 76.4 percent of the time, while the broader "Other" category—which includes various charges—sees an even higher dismissal rate of 86.7 percent. If you were arrested for theft, your charge sits in the category where dismissals are most common, though not guaranteed. The overall pattern suggests courts frequently find problems with these cases.
