DUI/DWI offenders in Chillicothe are sometimes given the opportunity to take advantage of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility as opposed to receiving other consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The punishment for such crimes can ordinarily be rather serious, including being locked up in jail and serious fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, particularly for first time offenders, the court will decide that treating the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is will prove more effective in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Chillicothe who are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process instead of other more extreme penalties, many will remain out of the court system for good.
