L D Donahue

You were arrested by Officer L D Donahue in Fairfax County, and the data shows something notably different from the typical outcome: 56.6% of cases this officer brings get dismissed, compared to just 34.7% statewide. This means charges filed by Donahue are significantly more likely to fall apart before conviction than the average Virginia arrest. You're in the 80th percentile for dismissal rates among officers, which suggests the cases Donahue brings often have evidentiary or procedural problems that prosecutors or judges ultimately reject.

The vast majority of Donahue's 195 cases—182 of them—fall under "Other" charges with a 56.8% dismissal rate, making it likely your arrest fits this category. Assault & Battery cases represent only 5 arrests, with a 50% dismissal rate. Without knowing your specific charge, you're looking at roughly even odds based on Donahue's pattern, though the high overall dismissal rate suggests the evidence or circumstances may not hold up in court. The outcome in your case will depend on the details of what happened, not just the officer's track record.
