DUI/DWI offenders in La Grange, Missouri are occasionally given the opportunity to take part in an alcohol and drug rehab program in lieu of punishment for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for these types of criminal offenses can occasionally be rather extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and significant fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for new offenders, the judge finds that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in La Grange, Missouri that are lucky enough to be able to take part in such treatment in lieu of other more extreme consequences, a great number will remain away from the court system for good.
