DUI/DWI offenders in Olmsted Falls are often given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment program instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The consequences for such offenses can often be rather serious, including jail time and significant fines and other significant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for initial offenders, the criminal justice system finds that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Olmsted Falls who are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment instead of other more serious consequences, many will remain out of the court system for good.
