DUI/DWI offenders in Greendell are often given the chance to take advantage of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility in lieu of consequences for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for such crimes can ordinarily be rather severe, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for initial offenders, the judge finds that addressing the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Greendell that are lucky enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment instead of other more extreme consequences, many will stay out of the court system permanently.
