DUI/DWI offenders in Allen, KS. are occasionally given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug and alcohol treatment program in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The punishment for such offenses can occasionally be very extreme, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and various significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, specifically for first time offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that treating the problems of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long run for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Allen, KS. who are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other more extreme punishment, a great number will stay out of the court system permanently.
