DUI/DWI offenders in Olustee, Oklahoma are sometimes given the option to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these types of offenses can ordinarily be quite extreme, including being locked up in jail and serious fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Often, particularly for new offenders, the judge finds that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Olustee, Oklahoma that are lucky enough to be allowed to take part in such treatment instead of other far more severe consequences, many will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
