DUI/DWI offenders in Slaughters, KY. are often given the chance to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment center in lieu of penalties for their drug or alcohol related offenses. The consequences for such crimes can occasionally be rather harsh, and may include being locked up in jail and substantial fines and even absorbitant costs associated with being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, particularly for new offenders, the judge finds that treating the problems of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is a better decision in the long run for curbing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Slaughters, KY. that are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other additional extreme consequences, many will remain away from the court system for good.
