J Siemek

You were arrested by Officer J Siemek in Prince William County. Looking at the broader pattern, your case faces somewhat steeper odds than the statewide average. Officer Siemek's cases result in dismissals about 5 percent less often than Virginia cases overall—29.5% versus 34.7%—placing him in the lower third of officers statewide. Still, roughly three in ten cases Siemek makes get dismissed, so dismissal remains a real possibility. The conviction rate of about 69% suggests prosecutors are moving forward with most arrests and securing guilty verdicts or pleas in the majority.

The type of charge matters significantly here. If you were arrested for trespassing, dismissals happen in only about 16% of cases—well below the statewide average. The majority of Siemek's arrests fall under "Other" charges (107 of 160 cases), which dismiss at 35.4%, closer to statewide norms. Where your charge falls on that spectrum will substantially affect the typical trajectory of cases like yours.
