DUI/DWI offenders in Frakes are occasionally given the opportunity to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The consequences for these types of offenses can occasionally be very harsh, including jail time and substantial fines and other absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for new offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Frakes who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other far more serious penalties, many will remain out of the criminal justice system for good.
