DUI/DWI offenders in Arcola, MS. are sometimes given the opportunity to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment facility in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these types of criminal offenses can often be very extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and significant fines and even absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, specifically for initial offenders, the court may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Arcola, MS. who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment instead of other additional severe penalties, a great number will remain away from the court system for good.
