DUI/DWI offenders in Greenville, IL. are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in lieu of penalties for their drug or alcohol related crimes. Penalties for these types of crimes can occasionally be quite harsh, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and other significant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for first time offenders, the criminal justice system finds that treating the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Greenville, IL. who are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more serious consequences, many will stay away from the court system for good.
