Other in Bradford County, Florida

Bradford County's "Other" charge category shows a notably high dismissal rate of 27.7 percent—nearly three times the statewide average of 8.6 percent. This 19.1 percentage point gap suggests that either the specific offenses bundled in this category are being charged more cautiously than statewide norms, or that local prosecutors are screening cases more stringently before trial. The guilty rate of 63.9 percent remains substantial, but the withheld adjudication rate of 8.4 percent falls well below the statewide average of 18.8 percent, indicating that judges in Bradford County are less likely to withhold formal adjudication when guilt is found. No defendants were diverted through pre-trial programs, compared to an 8.8 percent statewide diversion rate, suggesting Bradford County is not using diversionary options for these cases.

Sentencing outcomes show substantial incarceration. Over a third of defendants (35.5 percent) received prison time, with an average sentence of 954 days and a median of 578 days. Jail confinement affected 25.9 percent of cases. Most defendants were represented by public defenders at 25.3 percent, while only 1.2 percent retained private counsel, reflecting limited resources among this defendant population. Average probation lasted 940 days, and fines averaged $3,461.67.
