DUI/DWI offenders in Omaha, TX. are sometimes given the option to take advantage of a drug rehabilitation facility instead of punishment for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these types of crimes can ordinarily be rather severe, which can include jail time and serious fines and other absorbitant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for initial offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that addressing the problems of drug or alcohol addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Omaha, TX. who are lucky enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment in lieu of other far more extreme punishment, many will stay away from the court system for good.
