Where this sentencing data comes from

Virginia Criminal Sentencing Commission public records. Window: 2019–2024. Sentencing rates are published only where a charge has at least 10 records in 2nd Judicial Circuit; below that we publish the count alone. Percentages are weighted by case count, and are shares of all charges recorded — not of convictions.
