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 3rd 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.
CaseParity is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Statistics are computed from anonymized public sentencing records and describe historical patterns only. They do not predict outcomes in any individual case. Source: Virginia Criminal Sentencing Commission. Guideline range per Va. Code § 19.2-298.01.
CaseParity takes no position on sentencing policy. We do not advocate for longer sentences or shorter ones. We do not favor any party, any side, or any outcome. We publish the record.
Past sentencing patterns do not predict future outcomes in any individual case. CaseParity does not recommend litigation strategy, plea decisions, sentencing positions, or appellate arguments. Sentencing outcomes reflect many factors not captured in structured public records.
