DUI/DWI offenders in Downey, Idaho are occasionally given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab facility in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The punishment for such criminal offenses can ordinarily be very severe, and may include incarceration and serious fines and even significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that treating the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Downey, Idaho that are fortunate enough to be able to participate in such treatment instead of other far more extreme consequences, most will remain out of the court system permanently.
