M Dobbs

You were arrested by Officer M Dobbs in Prince George County, and the numbers suggest your case faces steeper odds than average. Dobbs has a 22.7% dismissal rate across 104 cases—significantly below Virginia's statewide average of 34.7%. This means charges filed by this officer are dismissed less often than those from most other Virginia officers. The 76% conviction rate reflects the flip side: cases that proceed typically result in convictions. You're in the bottom quarter of officers statewide for dismissals, which generally indicates strong case development or stricter charging practices, but either way it matters for your outcome.

Most of Dobbs's arrests—92 out of 104—fall under "Other" charges, which have a 15.2% dismissal rate. That's a concerning pattern if your charge is in that category, since dismissals are rare. The exception is weapons offenses: Dobbs filed only 5 of those, but they were dismissed 80% of the time. Where your specific charge lands within these categories will heavily influence what typically happens in similar cases from this officer.
