DUI/DWI offenders in Marshfield, Wisconsin are occasionally given the option to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. The punishment for these types of offenses can ordinarily be rather harsh, including jail time and substantial fines and other significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. More often than not, particularly for new offenders, the criminal justice system finds that treating the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Marshfield, Wisconsin that are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more serious punishment, many will remain away from the court system for good.
