Knepper

You were arrested by Officer Knepper in Amelia County, and the data shows a significant pattern you should understand. Out of 135 cases this officer has filed, 86.7% resulted in convictions while only 13.3% were dismissed. That's dramatically different from Virginia statewide, where dismissals happen in 34.7% of cases. Officer Knepper's dismissal rate ranks in the bottom 9th percentile compared to other officers—meaning cases from this officer are far less likely to be dismissed than the typical arrest in Virginia. This suggests either the cases are exceptionally strong or the charging decisions are very strict, but either way, conviction is the likely outcome.

The vast majority of Officer Knepper's arrests—129 out of 135 cases—fall into an "Other" category with a 13.1% dismissal rate. The remaining arrests are for Driving Suspended (5 cases with a 20% dismissal rate). Since you don't know your specific charge breakdown from this data, your charge likely falls into that large "Other" category. The low dismissal rate applies across the board in this officer's cases, suggesting the outcome depends less on the type of charge and more on the officer's overall pattern of strong case building or strict charging practices.
