DUI/DWI offenders in Conner are often given the opportunity to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these types of offenses can ordinarily be quite severe, and may include incarceration and serious fines and other absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, especially for initial offenders, the criminal justice system finds that treating the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long run for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Conner that are fortunate enough to be able to participate in this rehab process instead of other far more severe consequences, many will remain away from the criminal justice system for good.
