DUI/DWI offenders in Jonesboro, IL. are occasionally given the option to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility as opposed to receiving other penalties for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The punishment for such criminal offenses can ordinarily be very severe, including jail time and substantial fines and various significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the court finds that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Jonesboro, IL. that are lucky enough to be able to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other far more serious consequences, many will stay out of the court system for good.
