DUI/DWI offenders in Champion are occasionally given the opportunity to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility as opposed to receiving other punishment for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The punishment for these kinds of crimes can ordinarily be quite harsh, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and various significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for initial offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Champion who are lucky enough to be able to take part in such treatment instead of other far more severe consequences, a great number will remain out of the court system permanently.
