L M Fructuoso

You were arrested by Officer Fructuoso in Chesterfield County, and your case has a reasonably good chance of being dismissed. His dismissal rate is 43.3%, which runs 8.6 percentage points higher than Virginia's statewide average of 34.7%. This puts him in the 63rd percentile among officers statewide—meaning cases he brings are dismissed at rates better than most. That said, 56.7% of his arrests end in conviction, so you shouldn't assume your case will be dismissed.

Where your case lands depends heavily on the specific charge. If you were arrested for larceny or theft, dismissals happen in nearly 89% of cases he's filed. For "other" charges—which make up most of his arrests—expect roughly a 42% dismissal rate. However, if your charge is DUI or DWI, the picture changes dramatically: he has no dismissals in those six cases. Public intoxication falls somewhere in between at 33% dismissals. The strength of evidence in your particular situation will ultimately matter more than these patterns.
