You were arrested by K.J. Brown in Lynchburg, an independent city with its own court system separate from surrounding counties. Across 179 cases, Brown's arrests result in dismissal 41% of the time—notably higher than Virginia's statewide average of 34.7%. This suggests cases Brown brings are somewhat more vulnerable to dismissal, which could work in your favor. However, 58% do end in conviction, so the majority of her arrests stick. Brown's dismissal rate ranks in the 59th percentile compared to other officers statewide, meaning she's relatively middle-of-the-road.

The outcome for your specific case depends heavily on what you were charged with. The bulk of Brown's cases—111 out of 179—fall under "Other" charges with a 44.6% dismissal rate. Public intoxication charges dismiss only 30% of the time. Drug possession cases, though small in number, dismiss at 100%, while driving suspended charges dismiss just 27.3%. If your charge is drug-related, the pattern is encouraging. For most other charges, you're looking at better-than-average odds compared to statewide patterns, but conviction remains more likely than dismissal.
