J S Mcdonald

You were arrested by Officer J S Mcdonald in Virginia Beach. When you look at what happens to cases this officer makes, about 71 percent end in conviction and 29 percent get dismissed. That's slightly worse than Virginia's statewide average of 35 percent dismissals—your officer's dismissal rate runs about 6 points lower. This puts Mcdonald in the lower third among officers statewide, meaning cases made by this officer are somewhat less likely to be dismissed than average.

The vast majority of cases Mcdonald files fall into "Other" charges, which have a 33 percent dismissal rate. Your charge likely falls into this category. The few DUI cases this officer has made show similar dismissal patterns at about 33 percent. This suggests the outcome isn't dramatically different based on charge type—most cases move toward conviction, but roughly one in three still gets dismissed regardless of what you were charged with.
