DUI/DWI offenders in Gould are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of a drug rehabilitation center in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for such crimes can often be rather serious, which can include jail time and significant fines and other significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for new offenders, the criminal justice system finds that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in treatment is will prove more effective in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Gould that are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other more severe penalties, most will stay away from the court system for good.
