DUI/DWI offenders in Asotin, WA. are sometimes given the opportunity to take part in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these kinds of crimes can often be quite extreme, which can include being locked up in jail and serious fines and even significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for new offenders, the judge may decide that addressing the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in treatment is a better decision in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Asotin, WA. who are lucky enough to be able to take part in such treatment instead of other additional extreme consequences, a great number will remain away from the criminal justice system for good.
