Criminal justice clients in Beckemeyer often end up in drug treatment programs due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were found to be high on drugs. Some judges put these criminal individuals into the drug and alcohol rehab system because they believe that treating them is more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them in jail with no treatment at all. This has been established to be very workable not only in helping and rehabbing this type of client in Beckemeyer, but also in keeping them off of drugs and in many situations away from the criminal justice system for good.
