DUI/DWI offenders in Bellaire, OH. are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The consequences for these kinds of crimes can often be very severe, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for first time offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the problem.
